It's somehow nice to know that in the age of apps and iPods, kids still like to watch colonies of ants fastidiously going about their daily business. The humble ant farm hasn't remained unchanged by technology, however. For some time now, instead of dirt or sand, commercially-available kits have instead come with a clear green gel. The ants are not only able to tunnel through this goop, but it also serves as their source of food and water. Educational toy company Uncle Milton is now taking the concept a step farther, with its Ant Farm Revolution. It's a cylindrical gel ant farm, with a built-in LED lamp that casts giant silhouettes of its ants on the user's ceiling ... or presumably onto the outside wall of a neighbor's house. <a href="/web/20111006122403/http://www.gizmag.com/ant-farm-revolution-projects-shadows/19745/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111006122403/http://www.gizmag.com/unimog-by-lego-tecnic/19604/">Unimog by Lego Technic</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111006122403/http://www.gizmag.com/author/gizmag-team/">Gizmag Team</a></p> <p><em>22:47 August 23, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="/web/20111006122403im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111006122403/http://www.gizmag.com/unimog-by-lego-tecnic/19604/picture/140537/">9 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111006122403/http://www.gizmag.com/unimog-by-lego-tecnic/19604/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111006122403im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/unimog-tecnic-lego.jpg" title="The US$255 LEGO Unimog U400" alt="The US$255 LEGO Unimog U400"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>It seems like only yesterday, but Lego Technic has been with us now since 1977, and in that third of a century, the technical building blocks have no doubt stimulated the young minds of hundreds of thousands of would-be engineers.
