Nature has it way of ruthlessly unleashing cuteness power on us.

How? OMG, just watch how this domesticated (?) slow loris is attached to his cocktail umbrella.

NOTE: next time you need to put a smile on, just search for “slow loris umbrella”. ;-)

Yes, there’s so cute and everyone would like to have one but - don’t think about it! All five slow loris species are either in vulnerable or endangered status because either the exotic pet trade and traditional medicine (you don’t want to know what idiot people do with them). What you see online is enough.

Another entertaining commercial, where some ~~models~~ Android phones are walking down the catwalk. The phones arousing the male crowd are: HTC Desire, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, and Samsung Galaxy S.

If you liked this ad, you’ll like the previous one as well.

That’s the _{(way to make commercials)} (I like it)

Commercials for the first Android phone in Korea are cute. Watch overlays for translations.

NYU Student Conducts Most Adorable Robot Experiment Ever

The tweenbot, a cardboard-bodied, cheerful little bugger, is equipped with a flag stating its intended destination. Since it can only move forward, it depends on the kindness of strangers to guide it and remove obstacles.

Tisch School of the Arts student Kacie Kinzer created the tweenbot as a kind of art experiment. In her words:

I wondered: could a human-like object traverse sidewalks and streets along with us, and in so doing, create a narrative about our relationship to space and our willingness to interact with what we find in it? More importantly, how could our actions be seen within a larger context of human connection that emerges from the complexity of the city itself? To answer these questions, I built robots.

In New York City, we might expect the smiley-faced tweenbot to be stabbed, stomped, mugged, or covered in graffiti, but every single one of the journeys was completed without a hitch. Pedestrians would stop and help the little guy when he was trapped against a curb or headed into traffic, and point him in the right direction.
