Weather junkies, your site has come in. Weather Bonk gives you not only the local forecast, but also traffic webcams, monthly averages and live conditions overlaid on a Google map.

Just type in your ZIP code or city name to see the weather for your area. You can interact with the map as you normally would, zooming and panning and switching between various views (like satellite and hybrid). Click any forecast or webcam to see more detail in a pop-up window. You can also input a route and see what weather you’ll encounter along the way–great for wintertime road trips. — Rick Broida

DIY water-bottle tripod

Not a bad idea…

water%20bottle%20tripod.jpg

DIY site Instructables shows you how to turn nearly any plastic bottle into a tripod (make that monopod) for your camera.

All you need is a screw-on bottle cap and a couple of dirt-cheap nuts and bolts, and you can assemble one of these in about five minutes. When you find yourself in need of a tripod, just screw the cap into your camera and onto a full water or pop bottle. Presto!

We’ve covered DIY tripods before, but this one scores extra points for being cheap, easy and clever. Toss one in your pocket or bag and you’re good to go. — Rick Broida

Unaware Driver + Traffic + BlackBerry = Accident waiting to happen

strange

We can imagine that almost everyone has been guilty of trying to balance their morning commute between a cellphone, traffic, and their favorite morning radio show. We know it’s even more dangerous to drive with one knee, both hands on your BlackBerry, while you send your boss a message saying you are going to be late for the morning meeting. A Seattle man knows exactly what we are talking about as he caused a four car pile-up that involved 28 passengers on I-5 while playing around with his ’berry while in the express lanes. Thankfully, no one was hurt — and let’s face it, the guy could’ve picked worse places to do this.

Geek to Live: The best apps of 2006

2006 was another wild and wacky year in software and web development. While Google launched or acquired a new product every week, Intel Macs made the unholy marriage of Windows and OS X possible, Joe Schmoe’s became the self-made video stars of the web on YouTube, Internet Explorer got tabs and Microsoft finally ponied up the new version of Windows they’ve been promising (well, kinda.)

Here it is December and you know what that means: time for a best-of-the-year list. After the jump, check out my picks for best new software and web applications that rocked our world in 2006.

Some highlights (in graphical form because who want to read)

I won’t even ask…

Here’s one you won’t see on Wrecked Exotics. We should probably just turn this into a photo caption-a-thon, as we have nothing good to add. – Jonny Lieberman

Maho Beach & Princess Juliana Airport

Pictures of Maho Beach on the Dutch Antilles island of St Maarten have been cropping up on the net for years – usually with people claiming them to be the result of a photoshopping competition.

You see, the island is so small that the main runway is right next to Maho beach and jumbo jets have to fly in very low over the beach to make sure they can stop before the end. This results in holidaymakers having huge airliners just metres over their sunbathing – here’s a bunch of such pictures, none of which are photoshopped.

A lot of plane buffs also hang out on the beach and there’s good videos on YouTube of many planes landing and the beach being blown away as a plane takes off.
