The Type n Walk iPhone app enables you to see in front of you, via the iPhone's camera, while typing. I haven't tried it yet, but it's a cute concept. I'd imagine their lawyers wouldn't let them call it Type n Drive. Type n Walk (Thanks, Jason Tester!)... More.

I was trying to think of a deity I could attribute this to (a la Jesus appearances in toast or on irons) but all I could think of was the Eye of Odin from Gargoyles.
Ah! Perhaps an appearance by the god Horus?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_horus
Good enough.
perhaps Sauron?
very good. if you tried to intentionally achieve that without a slide projector you'd be hard pressed to do it.
Or Freemasons?!

Now THAT is a cool: It looks shockingly like an eye but without hokey supernatural interpretation. Just a good ol' light effect with an amusing result.
How about the eye of horus?
I'd argue against the architect because it's missing the compass and square.
Don't be silly, I'd recognize Elvis' eye anywhere.
That's what's so disappointing about BoingBoing: There's always some rational explanation for miracles.
That's not a reflection on the ceiling, it's a miracle!!
it's absolutely proof of the existance of the miracles of Kirk Cameron. remember, like Ceiling Cat.. the all-seeing miraculous Eye Of Kirk Cameron is watching you masturbate.
Has no one read Ringworld? Obviously it's a vacuum storm created by a relatively-microscopic puncture in the otherwise-impenetrable Ring Material.
Did you bring any chickens into the room Alan, just to see what they would do?
Alan says the eye turned out to be "a bedside light reflecting off a stack of CDs."
Yeah, Alan, you just keep telling yourself that. Just a harmless reflection, that's all. (I know a creepy eye on the ceiling when I see one, and that's one.)
Oh yeah, check out this face of Jesus...or Muhammad, or some dude with a beard that showed up in a pic i took at the oregon coast aquarium:

This would have improved "Paranormal Activity" ten-fold.
That is uncanny, miraculous proof of... the Linger vagina mints logo.

For various definitions of amazing, yes, that's...."amazing". Why do I suspect that because it's from a coast-to-coast listener, he probably still thinks chemtrails must have SOMETHING to do with it?
Ceiling Eye is watching you mast... etc, etc. :p
...and then it blinked!
I have a flashlight that does that... ALL HAIL MAGIC FLASHLIGHT!!!!1!!!
check out a Buddhist temple sometime. there are eyes everywhere at those places. creepy almost.
Reminds me of the reflection on the ceiling of my parents' room in the house where I did most of my growing up; it came from a small mirror on Mum's dressing table and resembled a sort of man-in-the-moon face. Apparently, I used to call it "'flection man".
Looks like the illuminati all seeing eye of horus on the back of the dollar bill. If this truly did happen the way he says it did it is its a very interesting synchronicity
