Radiator does a lot more

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Funny, Gadgets, Household by david on the December 2nd, 2007 at 4:51 pm

The humble radiator has been keeping people warm for many years now, and yet they always appear to be a bit of a waste of some heat sometimes, but not any longer, this is a ceramic radiator cover.

The cover for the radiator gives a whole new meaning to keeping warm. But not just for you, but for your morning cup of coffee too, so there will no longer be a cup of cold coffee waiting for you when you get off of the phone, in fact you could keep just one cup going all day long!

Nail cushion saves finger nails

Posted in Business Ideas, Household, money by david on the November 29th, 2007 at 10:00 am

There is nothing worse than bashing your finger with a hammer the pain is just simply second to none.

Which is why this Nail Cushion is such a brilliant idea, it’s a rubberised plate that has a nail holder cut into it, this makes it easier for the nail to be held by the device and not your fingers!

5ft tall robot, is this the end?

Posted in CPU, Computer, Cool, Funny, Household, Robots by david on the November 28th, 2007 at 2:00 pm

Could this robot that has been designed to be like a servant, become the terminator of the future, we have all seen the film! However at the moment the robot is being taught to handle delicate items without damaging them.

robot

The Twendy One robot is five feet tall and weighs 111 kg; there are four fingers on each hand, cameras for eyes and speaker for speech. It is able to take things out of the fridge, toast from a toaster and put it on a plate.

It will be available in 2015 and will cost between $100,000 and $200,000, so who wants one of these sitting in the kitchen?

The plasma nightlight

Posted in Chemistry, Consumer, Cool, Funny, Gadgets, Household by david on the November 28th, 2007 at 12:00 pm

This seems to be a very strange thing to have as a nightlight as I would have thought that it would be enough to give anyone let alone young children, some really bad nightmares.

Now if this were to be placed into the room of a teenager, then they would probably sleep like a log and not take any notice of it at all.

It is quite fascinating though because there was a time when plasma balls were really expensive, now you can buy these nightlight versions for only $9.99 with a lifespan of approximately four years.

Putting a bit of light on it

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Household by david on the November 26th, 2007 at 12:00 pm

This is all you need to create a nice new window in home, there is no building required, and no planning permission needed at all.

fake window

All that is needed if this blind to be put up on the wall somewhere central would look great, and that is it, from the inside it looks as if you have a new window, and yet from the outside of the house there is no sign at all.

A place for your iPod

Posted in Audio, Consumer, Cool, Entertainment, Gadgets, Household, Music, mp3 by david on the November 24th, 2007 at 1:00 pm

The Apple is so small now that is it quite possible that is can be lost, so the logical thing to do is to build furniture around the iPod, that way it will always be safe and sound.

ipod furniture

These sofas are great they look stylish and will go in with any interior design, and yet they have a purpose, this is where the music comes from. There is a little place for the device, and the sound and other features can be controlled by buttons and switches on the furniture itself.

The prices are not too bad; the dearest item is only $399!

This clock is a bit fishy

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Funny, Gadgets, Household by david on the November 23rd, 2007 at 8:00 am

What a great feature this clock will make on any wall, the idea of it representing a sardine can is cool enough for this to take a prime spot on the kitchen wall.

With half of the can opened up as if it were a real can, it exposes the pendulum which is funny enough a fish.

Size 12 inches x 6 inches x 2 inches.

Priced at $22.98
