This speaker, called Ode to Beethoven, lets you to dock your mp3 player in a stone bust of Beethoven’s head.

Ode to Beethoven was designed by UK artist Fiona Thomson. It’s part of a series of projects that combine classic artistic aesthetics with modern technology.

Unfortunately at this point it’s still just a concept. Which is too bad, because I think it would be really funny to crank some eurotrash techno or gangsta rap out of Beethoven’s noggin.

The girls of Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) are undoubtedly some of the dopest chicks you’ll ever encounter. Not only do they do they possess mad algebraic skillz and could probably kick your ass in World of Warcraft, they have the only finest taste in tech blogs.

In this hilarious rap vid clip from the school’s CMU Gurlzzz, pay careful attention starting around the 1:45 mark, and you just might hear a mention of a little blog that’s near and dear to my heart.
Excuse me now I gotta catch up with my blogs (blogs)
If you don’t like that then I’ll throw you to the dogs (dogs)
And if you DIGG it, then you my dawg
Gizmodo Notcot and technabob
Yep. When you start having your blog mentioned alongside DIGG, Gizmodo and Notcot in a viral YouTube clip, you know you’ve arrived.
CMU Gurlzzz, technabob loves you too.
