Today is a 24hr clock designed by , an award winning artist and horologist. This clock uses a 24-hour movement mechanism, allowing it to move at half the speed of a regular clock and making one full rotation every day. The result gives you peace of mind.
This feeling was inspired by the wonder of watching clouds passing by at 30,000 ft. and the need to bring it back to the ground where we spend our lives. Today is calm, balanced, and it makes you feel like you have more time; no stress. Time is precious and it should bring more gratefulness than anxiety so lets live it instead of kill it.

Kontor has changed the game with this clever direct mailing. Design agency OgilvyAction Düsseldorf / OgilvyOne Frankfurt skipped disposable promo CDs and sent out attention-grabbing vinyl presses of DJ Boris Dlugosch’s single. Using a smartphone, the piece transforms into a turntable by allowing access to a digital copy with seamless graphics (complete with needle)!
This product isn’t new on the gadget market, but with everyone switching to Bluetooth devices I figured it was worth mentioning.
When I showed my dad my ipod touch a few months back, he said “I would need to sharpen my fingers into points to type on that thing!” A folding Bluetooth keyboard is ideal for those with pudgy fingers or not from the generation of touch screens. It may not be the slickest looking electronic, but it is practical for those on the road typing long emails.
This one is the Freedom Universal Keyboard which was released in Oct. 06′ and is compatible with over 200 devices that have Bluetooth connectivity (the ipod not being one of them). You can pick it up online from Mobile City for about $90.
Back in November I wrote a post entitled “Mac Vs. PC: The Battle Rages On.” Judging by their latest ad for the Storm, Blackberry wants in on the action. Guava NYC, a New York based studio specializing in post-production visual effects and 2D and 3D animation, is responsible for this well-done promo.
This ad was brought to my attention by one of my readers who happens to work for Research in Motion. RIM is a Canadian wireless communications company best known for the
…..yup, you got it
Blackberry.
Despite the awesome visuals, the 15 second ad may prove to be a touch optimistic since in a recent survey comparing the iPhone with the BlackBerry Storm Apple beat out RIM. I think we know which side of the fence this girl still stands on (Sorry, Earl).
