Desert TiVo

This one takes the cake – dirtiest TiVo ever. King Tut’s got cleaner stuff:

Sand TiVo 1

Sand TiVo 2

And yet, with a new drive, it works . . . Don’t try this at home.

OK – here you go

Well, it seems that enough people paid pretty close attention to the screenshots below to wonder what that discount was all about. So lets make it official:

$10 off a $20 or larger order with coupon code google10

Notes: the coupon only works for Google Checkout, and the code must entered on their site, not ours.

WeaKnees now offers Google Checkout

Today is the launch of a new payment service from Google called Google Checkout. And WeaKnees is there!

Customers can now choose to pay for WeaKnees products through Google Checkout by clicking that option at the checkout screen. Here’s a screenshot:

Clicking the Google Checkout button takes you to your account on Google’s site, or to a sign up page for the account. Here’s an example of what I got when I did a checkout:

It’s a pretty cool system. In typical Google fashion, the interface is quick, sparse, and comfortable. Try it out!

See some Google info about Google Checkout.

Tales from the shipping department

We do get lots of shipments here with really ingenuitive packaging. Every so often, one just really impresses us.

First off, this box was marked “Please Handle” and then “glass.” Please Handle? Excellent.

And notice the Hanes logo on the box? Maybe that explains the cushioning used on the unit.

What a way to recycle!
