While the last post tells you about the line - here's my hands on review of all the goodies you get INSIDE a Mimobot. Yes, when you behead it to plug it into your comp.

The Ginchy line of Mimobots has a Launch Party at Munky King on Thurs ~ designer, photographer, dj will all be present - Must see the McCarty Photos!

Designers love to take everyday objects and displace their meaning. Ray is a lampshade made from sunglasses

Fake riches, turn everyday plates into heirlooms

The Ambient Devices people have a new digital beta Ambient Clock which runs off of google calendars ~ new way to tell time - reminds me of an old cogsci hci project...

It is time for an upgrade. Finally they put FW800 back in ~ 200 gig HDs! 2-3 Gigs ram! Glossy screen option! 6x dual layer dvd! Dual Core! The New MacBook Pro.

Just fell in love with Twiggy, the new lamp by Marc Sadler for Foscarini.

Only thing better than getting a Wiiiiiii, are these Target light up Wii gift cards. Too fun.

London's Rokeby Gallery exhibit features drawings made by trees (among other nonhumans). Artist Tim Knowles "creates drawings independent of his own hand, using elaborate apparatus or time consuming practices."

The Slobots are Art /Toy/Sculptures by M Heisler. I can't believe these two robots started their life as a Munny.

Open Edition is an LED clock with four independent cubes, each with one of the digits of a clock, to be ordered as you feel.

Good/Bad post organisers by Illico. Personally I think the "Bad" one needs to be a lot bigger, I never get nice mail :(

Cat proof furniture. I most definitely need some of this stuff...

Nola Star has a really interesting product somewhere between thin plastic tiles and a curtain ~ gorgeous patterns available, and seems very unique and versatile for decorating

Lexus launches their Hybrid Living site, featuring some great videos of interviews with green designers, as well as ipod friendly tours of LA, SF, and NY spots that are both eco friendly and aesthetically impressive.

Rega make turntables that are as pleasing to the eye as they are to the ear. I think these little slabs of minimalist tellytubby-coloured goodness are my favourite.

Noticed the work of Markus Hofer over at JoshSpear.com and its mesmerizing to click through all these hardened paint blobs taking on lives of their own... be it from plugs, spray cans, floating paint cans, etc...

Vacuum Tube clock? Yes please.

TORD BOONTJE does TARGET! Gorgeous, affordable, fun, and i couldn't resist the dessert plate and bowls... full collection of images at .com

When I was a kid I used to pretend that my mum's hoover was R2D2. Now I can buy this and suck bugs out of Neo's stomach...

again, now sure how practical it is, but this corrugated bench from courtney skott is beautifully patterned.

Adorable 2007 Letterpressed & Hand Painted Calendar by Ilee.

Mini Hummer Golf Carts - also a really cute flamed roadster golfcart ~ impressively adorable once you get over the fact that they are hummerlets.

Garden Tile design that lets the grass show/grow through.

Kurt Gohde has an interesting vision of celebrity. His recent project, Head First Slide, features 36 homeless men & women or recovering drug addicts as baseball cards.

2007 Calendar "monosashi." Bi-monthly calendar from decoylab that looks like a measuring stick.

A nifty book called "Tales of Clones and Possessed Children". Lots of very bad suggestions, great comic art

Pool Party Ring. Part of the Swatch Bijoux Jewelry Collection.

The animated navigation system reminds me of Howl's moving castle. It's a small 3D animation company called Heiwa-Alpha based out of Toyko Japan. Heiwa-Alpha translates to : Peaceful Alpha

KitchenFloorBags are made from kitchen floor pvc. sadly I think they are using new panels rather than recycled floors.

Band-deck: Thinkmo decided to turn his skateboard into a band-aid.

this is a pretty clean design for an ad agency site, but breaks some basic usability rules of thumb.

Smoon Bijou. these little gems are like stardust one wears around the neck.

i cant pretend to be old enough to remember telegraphs, but this adorable stationary set makes me nostalgic anyway.

Your walls, light switches and furniture are conquered by this trendy wall paper folk and your room becomes the kingdom of potato-queen! [EDITOR'S NOTE: gauckler's work was posted as #872 and on .com]

Ouch!
Make your little aches visible and trendy or wear it unharmed as freaky jewellery!

"Forgotten Memories" is a jewellery series which is based on my childhood memories, but still very recognizable. All these influences come together in the creation as the overblown dandelion, or the wattled daisy chain.

The Fabulist found these awesome scarves by lulette - you can pick your color, your font (they have great ones), and even customize your text!

I know the Dracula Fork has already been posted here, but this dummy/soother is an truly excellent idea

Believe it or not, this is a power station. The site has more wonderful architecture to look at and information to read.

Twig and Heather - they cast in silver those things you treasure as a little kid walking down the street... maple seeds, acorns, twigs, birch bark...

FF Glueh Lamp uses the by-product of the light bulb - heat - which is stored into the brick and thus made usable.

An Excellent Maya Animation done by Michal Levy. With wonderful John Coltranes ' "Giant Steps". [Editor's Note - This is just brilliant]

Had to post this other design by Ramon Middelkoop. The ASPAK was designed to prevent smokers from tossing their cigarette butts into the street.
