Celebrity Weighing Scales
2007-04-12 00:06:42
It seems everyone is obsessed about their weight these days. Too fat, too thin, size zero this, obese that. The whole weight debate is enough to make you want to smash up the bathroom scales and start again. This scale is somehow special. Instead of numbers it displays a name of a celebrity who is about the same weight. Enjoy, you are just like Missy Elliott.

Delphi NAV200 Portable GPS Navigation
2007-04-11 23:52:00
The shirt-pocket GPS
market is getting increasingly crowded, and now there’s another product joining the crowd. It is the Delphi
NAV200 - a really nice model. Like the Mio C710 and the Garmin nüvi 350 and nüvi 360, the NAV200 ($360 street) offers much more than turn-by-turn navigation. In fact, it’s the first dedicated device (non-PDA) to offer a music, movie, and picture player, along with a built-in game, calculator, world clock, and turn-by-turn navigation and still break the $400 price barrier - let’s buy it, the display is incredible.

Chocolate Billboard: Inventive Marketing
2007-04-17 11:51:02
What is the future of advertising: to offer consumers something to eat. This chocolate billboard is a good example.
The Easter creation, a world first, was made of 10 chocolate bunnies, 72 giant chocolate eggs and 128 chocolate panels, each weighing 2kg.
The billboard took three months to plan and 300 hours for the team of 10 to build and was expected to last a week but alas was devoured by Londoners in less than three hours.

Titanium Spork: Bachelor’s Best Friend
2007-04-18 11:56:43
Is it a fork or a spoon? This Titanium
Spork was clearly made for camping, but I don’t see any reason the newbie bachelor can’t find a certain usefulness in a utensil that can take on anything softer than steak. Titanium won’t give you the metallic smell or taste often associated with cheap cutlery, and it’s quite a bit more durable than the plastic sporks you grew up on. It’s only 9 bucks, cool price for cool stuff.
