little printer = big possibilities

Everyone enjoys service with a smile and why not get your RSS services printed with a smile, a cute one at that. London based design studio BERG has developed a great Little Printer that lets you print your RSS feeds from your phone. They have partnered with a few companies like Nike, Google, and Foursquare, sure to make this launch in 2012 a great one. For instance with Google you can print news feeds and list or with Nike you can track your calories burned over the last few weeks, including yesterdays workout.

I think it is brilliant! Did I mention it is inkless?
Watch the video to fully understand the cool and cute factor of this. 




I hope they open the possibilities of this printer to business solutions like on-the-go receipt printing or instant customizable coupons or vouchers. This could be used for businesses on the go or just a daily to-do list you tear off on the way out the door after grabbing your keys. Really the possibilities are endless!

geeks paradise

Design geek or regular geek I think there is something all geeks can agree on, off beat rare products are awesome! A geek with a replica 11th Doctor Who bow tie is a very happy geek. Although the design geek would order it for the cool factor and pick apart the packaging design seconds after ripping the tape off that FedEx package.

Anyhoo, for all the nerd, geeks, and dorks out there check out Geek Alerts. Trust me you will not be disappointed.

Here a few of my favorites. I think my geekness is showing.

Wacom Inkling = amazing!!!

Wacom produces some pretty awesome products but I think they have really out did themselves this time.

I present the Inkling.


Inkling is a new amazing digital sketch pen. Here is how it works.
  1. Buy Inking, duh ;)
  2. Sketch on any paper using the pen and reciver
  3. Prepare to have your mind blown.
Why will your mind be blown? Well, just watch (full-screen and in HD).



You see that?! Layers!! Sit tight because Inkling will not be out until mid October 2011 and is going for only $199.

the world's easiest making system (Ponoko)

If you have not heard of Ponoko then I would like to introduce you to the world's easiest making system. With Ponoko you can make, sell, and buy custom products. Here is an example; you have a cool idea for an awesome clock that is shaped like a stack of post-it notes that you can write notes on, you design it, upload it, and get a prototype from Ponoko. How simple is that? You can choose from a long list of materials to make your product out of like leather or steel and they even have electronic parts if you want to take on the challenge of building a cool new electronic doodad (that is the technical term). It's like your own little factory and you maitain all creative rights to anything made with Ponoko. There are even free files shared by the creators that you can use and personalize to make it your own, like the "Pono" figurine below. You can download him and make him out of clear silicone or gold plate material.

Follow me to check it all out and create something cool. I have included some cool products made on Ponoko below to show the wide range of possibilities.







MORE/REAL stylus

You ever use a stylus to draw and spend half the time getting use to the silly tiny thing? Why do they make them so small? Don Lehman thought the same thing and is doing something about it and you can help it come to life.
