Sun-Young Lee's Hourglass Nightlight gives you a
little you time

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 August 2007 10:04:51 PM. © Shiny Shiny

You don't need a nightlight when you're asleep, but when you're awake, and usually not for very long. Instead of putting an insomnia-inducing tick-down timer, the Hourglass Nightlight by Sun-Young Lee activates when you flip it over, and winks out when the stream of sand finishes settling. The sight and sound are designed to be soothing and to help lull you into sleep, instead of leaving you panicking about the monsters* that will eat you when the dark comes. (*Or spiders that will lay eggs in your ear.) [Camille]

USB Stress Button puts your temper somewhere safe

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 August 2007 09:05:09 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Sometimes you want something attached to your computer which you can just BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF - and with the USB Stress Button you're actually supposed to! It has three modes, Explosion, Punch-Out and Worksheet, and each button-mash switches it to the next. Explosion mode generates a countdown with a graphic, satisfying explosion; Punch-Out shows a cartoon face and punches the hell out of it; and Worksheet (or "Boss") makes it look like you're actually doing something in Excel (and if you were, that's probably why you've lost your temper, patience and marbles).

iTT USB Turntable with USB Audio Interface

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 August 2007 09:05:09 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Some of us still have vinyl lying around because it hasn't been issued on CD, or, because vinyl, despite its willingness to deterioriate, arguably produces a warmer sound and greater frequency range than CD. But every time you play it, it degrades a little more, and you know someday you'll drop needle to the platter and it'll start crab scratching whether you like it or not. Or, you can get an iTT USB Turntable with USB Audio Interface and dump it straight to your computer in lossless format, and then store the vinyl somewhere climate-controlled and dust-free, like a time capsule. £100.

6-Piece Utili-key hangs handy

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 August 2007 09:05:09 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Smaller than a full-scale Swiss Army knife and providing some of its key (ahem) functionality, the 6-Piece Utili-key pops onto your keychain with the same low profile as the rest of your keys. Fold it out though, and it offers you the choice of bottle opener, straight blade, serrated blade, Philips or flat screwdriver, and even a teeny-tiny eyeglass screwdriver which, the one time you need it, will totally justify owning the gadget in the first place. Unless you like taping your glasses together like an 80s dork. £10. [Camille]

Pop Art Cam War-hols your hols (snaps)

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 August 2007 08:06:16 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Although the four-panel, four-tone Warhol effect is easy to achieve these days in Photoshop, with the Pop Art Cam you can have it embedded right in the original. This four lens camera (as opposed to the more oft-seen "single lens reflex" or SLR) puts four copies of the scene on the same print, and tints each with red, green, yellow or blue. Uses regular 35mm film and goes for a very modest £7. [Camille]

post from Techie Diva's Guide to Gadgets on 16 August 2007 07:08:00 PM. © Techie Diva's Guide to Gadgets

We sure love trendy laptop bags, but I think we're at a point where adding a different color to the same style of bag doesn't cut it anymore. Geeksugar noticed the charming Gabriel and Schwan laptop bags. If your style...
