Completely unnecessary…

…but cute nonetheless. Well I got a new 8GB iPod Nano (my 2GB one died) and was looking around for random iPod stuff when I stumbled on this little critter.

It’s the iDog! Well if you plug it in your iPod and you have your genre tags right, this should be fun.

Apparently he reacts to the genre, like if you have rock music on he becomes rebellious, pop & rnb makes him happy, dance music makes him excitable. Then sometimes it could request for certain genres, at least I think that’s how it goes. Pretty cute eh? There are 3 different “personalities” and 8 different moods. I hope I got that right. LOL. This is the type of thing I could actually consider getting for my Pod. Because…it’s fun.

Technorati tags: , , , , ,

They need a home…

Meet Mario

Meet Mario. A 6 year old (mixed) native dog with a long-ish fur coat of black, white and orange. Mario is one of the longest-staying dogs at PARC. He’s been there for 3 years and is now being prioritized for adoption.

I got this from a pet adoption site of the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) called Me.Find.Home. Actually I first saw this site months ago, from my pseudo animal-rights-activist friend. She told me about it, but back then we couldn’t really get a pet. Seeing this again, makes me wanna adopt one…Mario in particular. Aww. But this site is obviously only for the Philippines.

Makes me think of how many other stray cats and dogs I see, I bet most of them die on the streets or are caught and killed anyways. These ones are lucky. So calling all animal lovers. If you know any pet adoption places, maybe you wanna consider adding these poor critters to your homes. :)
