Mouse Trap!

Remember the old board game?  The object is to build the mouse trap, and to trap other mice

"The contraption has gears, a marble which rolls from end to end down a miniature staircase, ramps, rubber bands, a diving man, and ends of course in a mouse trap, specifically a dome-shaped cage which clatters down a toothed pole."

Violated every light engineering rule...but oh, so much fun.

I was reading Jeff Nolan's blog and saw this:

"Using Twitterfeed, someone who shall remain nameless (and it wasn’t me, really) pumped the RSS feed for Google News through Yahoo Pipes to extract the Bloomberg headlines and then fed them into Twitter. The result is Bloombergbiz. Pure awesomeness."
