Roll Up Waterproof Keyboard

Writing endless essays and dissertations, not to mention cranking out interminable spreadsheets can discombobulate one mercilessly. Or, to use contemporary parlance, do one's head in. So it's no wonder that one should seek a distraction now and again. Like making a cuppa. Watching telly. Or doing all manner of diverting activity. Anything, in fact, but real work.

Now, a device has been invented that is the distraction. And shocking pink it is, too. This frankly astonishing keyboard is bendable, cleanable, droppable and, most importantly, typable. Think of it as your flexible friend, able to roll up and go anywhere, with silent keys for extra stealthy late-night typing and a fabulous back-lit pink for making extra-fluffy finger puppets on the ceiling.

Best of all, there's no complex installation process or software needed for typing on the go. With pure plug and play technology at its heart, you're off and glowing in no time. In short, it's pure girly QWERTY joy in silicone form - practically indestructible and a fetching shade of the pinkest, bubblegummest pink imaginable. Another giant leap towards the seamless woman-machine interface.

Webcam Photo Frame

One's desk is an important space. A space to be cherished and protected from the incursion of one's neighbours. A space to contain personal effects as well as vital workplace tools. And, above all, a place for total control of one's dominion via a battery of gadgets, gizmos and devices. So it is with pride that we present the latest in a line of high-tech accessories - namely a state-of-the-art webcam complete with a fully detachable 1.8-inch digital photo frame.

Coming complete with 8MB of memory, the frame element stores up to approximately 56 images in GIF, BMP or JPG format. And, as it's fully detachable, you can move it around the office to demonstrate the beauty of one's family (and therefore the quality of one's gene pool). The digital photo frame is recharged when plugged into the base, ensuring the lights never go out.

The integrated webcam is designed for complete compatibility with all the major instant messaging applications including MSN, Skype and Yahoo. With a bit of know-how, it can even be used for video conferencing, keeping you completely connected, without moving a muscle from your desk.

If that's not enough to satisfy one's desire for total command of one's empire, the device also tells the time, date and temperature. And yes, it's even got an alarm to remind one to wake up for one's next meeting. Splendid.

Features

• Integrated 1.8-inch photo frame and webcam
• CSTN screen
• Lithium rechargeable battery
• 300K CMOS web cam sensor
• Compatible with Windows 98, 2000, XP and Vista

The Study Ball – Finish your homework before going to play

The Study Ball is allegedly a real $115 product that prevents you from moving from your desk while you're supposed to be studying. Obviously, it's a complete sham unless it weighs at least 200lbs, because I can lift twice that with my littlest piggy.

The Study Ball gadget is a prison-style ball and chain that you can program to keep track of how much time you spend studying. Once you've selected the desired duration, you chain the ball to your ankle and the manacle won't come off until the schedule study time is up.A red LED indicator displays the "Study Time Left" and keeps you informed as to how much longer you've got to keep studying. The ball and chain are made of highly durable steel and weighs a total of 9.5 kg / 20.95 pounds, which makes it difficult to move while wearing it.
21lbs, pfffft. That's not gonna stop anybody from doing anything. Including, but not limited to: robbing a liquor store. ALL THE BOURBON OR YOUR ANKLE GETS IT! What? NO THIS AIN'T NO SKIP-IT! Via

Excessive mobile use can cause mental problems like depression and lack of concentration

A new research suggests excessive use of mobile phones can hinder sleep, trigger fatigue and stress and cause mental problems like depression and lack of concentration. At the recent annual meeting of the U.S. Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS), Dr. Gaby Badre from Sahlgren's Academy in Gothenburg, Sweden said teenagers who use their phones excessively are more prone to stress and fatigue. The study focused on 21 healthy people between 14 and 20 years of age with regular work or study hours and without sleep problems. The subjects were divided into two groups. Compared to the control group, who made less than five calls and/or sent five text messages a day, the experimental group made more than 15 calls and/or sent 15 text messages a day. And the latter suffered from increased restlessness, had more careless lifestyles, consumed more stimulating beverages, and reported difficulty falling asleep, disrupted sleep, and more susceptibility to stress and fatigue. Only one-third of them ate breakfast, compared with most in the control group.

Brain wave scan of children with high mobile use showed a similar sleep cycle pattern to that of a depression patient. Conversely, depressive and impulsive children tended to rely more on mobile phones. Experts say those who are at risk to becoming an addict are nervous without a phone, always tinker with it and are at ease only after making a call or texting someone. Doctors also note that texting can be more harmful than phone calls to mental health and sleep levels. Prof. Ha ji-hyun, of the Department of Psychiatry at Konkuk University Medical Center says, "A call is simultaneous communication, but an SMS is not. You can get nervous while waiting for the response."

Eyeclock Is Googly All the Time

Here’s the description for the Eyeclock from designer Mike Mak: “Eyeclock is a pleasuring clock which gives pleasure while telling you time.” Not sure “pleasure” is the right word. Judging from the photos, it seems the right eye continually circles around as the minutes tick by, while the right eye swirls a bit slower to count off the hours. Cute at first, the Eyeclock could possibly whittle away at your sanity as you while away the day. [Mike Mak Design]

Portable Sanitizer for the Germaphobes

 

Each of us probably knows a "germaphobe" who is bothered by thinking about who has touched what item. The perfect gift for them is this portable sanitizer that acts as a wand using UV rays to eradicate germs. Now the person I can think of uses the trusted can of Lysol. When travelling, the whole hotel room is Lysol-ed including the bathroom, TOILET, pillows, sheets, door handles, and mattress. Does this sound a bit extreme - maybe? Then again most of us that do not suffer from this phobia are able to not think about the mental images. It is small enough to fit in a purse or briefcase and can be used quite quickly on a keyboard or other public areas. It operates like a switchblade knife and when closed is 4 1/2" long. Price: US$70.

The Tim Taylor Pizza Cutter

Looking to startle house guests — or impress Toolmonger friends hanging out in the kitchen instead of the shop? If so, you’re likely the target market for the possibly-vaporware Pizza-Pro 3000. And before you ask: No, it’s not motorized. (Though we imagine a little time in the shop could fix this, erm, design flaw.)

Offered along with dozens of other not-yet-available products on the WorldWideFred website, this appears to be simply a molded plastic circ saw shape attached to the top of a standard.

Portable Anti Burglar Alarm

On a backpacking trip across one of the dicier parts of Southeast Asia, I worried about being robbed; every other traveller I talked to had had something stolen from them, often while they were sleeping. So every night before going to sleep in my rented rooms, I spent ten minutes constructing a precariously balanced pyramid of empty beer bottles in front of the door, an improvised burglar alarm I hoped a thief would noisily topple upon entering.

I sure wish I'd had one of these, a Wedge Alarm. The diminutive device is easy to pack, fits under a door and lets out a shrieking alarm when tripped. Beats having to finish three to five beers before bedtime just to build a security system.

Easy unplugging : Universal Plug

Designed by Kim Seung Woo - Universal Plug is a very simple idea that should be implemented on all electronics. Pulling out a plug is not a hard work, but it is not always an easy task. This plug comes with a circular cut-out which can help you pull it out easily and encourage users to save energy, because we all know by now that leaving your electronics plugged in can suck away unused energy. I hope that some people who work in the electronics production see this idea …and who knows we will see it more and more in use, is very useful I think.
