Will guys drink to this?

Funnily enough, we were talking shop with some tech entrepreneurs on how businesses could survive these trying times when these geeks uttered the unthinkable--Hello Kitty.

Seems no one's immune to the charm of this pink-obsessed feline. Even these businessmen weren't discounting the power of the lipless one to snag them a different segment of the market demographic.

Coincidentally, Beck's just released the very beer for these guys to make a toast to on their idea. While it's not tech or a brew any macho male would be caught dead swigging in public, the occasion certainly merits drinking to it for now.

If you read the conversation on the source website they do confirm that the picture is photoshopped and that this is not a real product. Someone does include a link to a photo of someone holding a real bottle of Hello Kitty non-alcoholic beer though...

After 5 years, Firefox faces new challenges

Mozilla helped reshape the Web since releasing Firefox 1.0 five years ago. Now it's got a reawakened Microsoft and Google Chrome to reckon with.

There's a map for that: GPS or smartphone?
