Want to try Diablo 3 early? You've got this entire weekend to do so because Blizzard is holding a three day open beta for the anticipated game for everyone* to test ahead of its May 15 release. Here's how to get your Diablo 3 on.

Stop for a second and think about some of your most visited websites. Facebook, Google, Twitter and YouTube are probably on that list. Now imagine what those websites would look like as dresses .

Apple's iPhone 4S might not survive a shot in the face with a sniper rifle , but it's good to know that with this tough-as-balls screen protector, Sir Jonathan Ive's finest mobile creation yet can take a hammer to its screen like The Hulk without any bruisings.

Deborah Bay's "The Big Bang" is a photo set like that of which you've never seen. In it are clusters of galaxies and space rock that even NASA can't capture.

Svelte as the iPhone 4/4S is, Apple's decision to go with chemically-strengthened glass for its back case has left many shattered iPhone owners down in the dumps.

Exercise bikes allow people the luxury of intensive thigh-burning exercise without having to leave home, but they aren't exactly considered elegant pieces of furniture.

Back at CES, we met with a company called Innovega that was busy working on some special contact lenses that could enable previously impossible virtual and augmented reality devices . The BBC is reporting that DARPA has just placed an order for prototypes, and Innovega says you'll be able to buy yours by the end of 2014.

When it comes to Apple's industrial design, Jony Ives is usually the name you hear thrown around. But it would appear the late Steve Jobs tapped another talent — famed French designer Philippe Starck — to design a "revolutionary" product that'll be released in the next eight months.

Sometimes seeing how something works is better than just reading an explanation.

Update : Apple tells some tech blog " no ." I wouldn't have believed this except that Starck said it himself in an interview , discovered by HardMac . I'm not surprised at all that Starck, an excellent industrial designer (I used a number of his products when he designed some stuff for Target), was a confidant of Steve Jobs. I am, however, surprised that he provided a timeline for the release of this Apple product
