Here’s a fun one for the new year: Furby Mods and Hacks!

There are several sites I found dedicated to undertanding more about these annoying, furry little creatures.  One of the funniest I thought, was the Furby Autopsy which describes the autopsy procedures of the Furby Toh-Loo-Kah.

Some of the information I found is somewhat dated, but the creations on the Furby Stimulation site are interesting, particularly considering the basic and rudimentary electronics involved.

If you’re disinclined to rip apart your Furby, this site lists a few less violent things to do with your Furby like Easter Eggs and stories… or if you truly are sadistic how to torture your creature.
