<description><![CDATA[ Watching robot videos is usually pretty entertaining -- especially when the robots fail catastrophically. But even when they don't mess up, robotic performances can be mesmerizing when the footage is played in fast motion. Here are just a few examples.
<ul>
<li> <a title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKUaVzf3Oqw" href="http://bit.ly/jZxp2z">This is possibly the most unintentionally-funny video of a robot that can bundle matching socks.</a> Insert phallic joke here. [<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKUaVzf3Oqw">url</a>]</li>
<li> <a title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIheAjvEiBE" href="http://bit.ly/isUUmr">Robotic jugglers aren't quite perfect at juggling 5 balls at a time yet.</a> And there's a long way to go before they can add a bowling ball and a chainsaw to their act. [<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIheAjvEiBE">url</a>]</li>
<li> <a title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbdQbyff_Sk" href="http://bit.ly/jTlEl0">Paul the robot is aiming to take the job of pencil sketch artists at local fairs and amusement parks.</a> Its drawings look a bit messy, though...
