iPhone protection

October 28, 2011

Look. We all love how sexy the iPhone4/4s is. Siri voice or not. It looks beautiful and no wants to see it get wrecked right?

Well through following DNA11 art on face book and the web I was pointed in the direction of gelaskins.com

These skins for a lot of devices are just awesome. Designed by artists and uploaded by you, the skins come with free wallpaper to make your iPhone or device look as though it is capsulated in a beautiful design tech master piece.

There are just so many cool designs to choose from and even me, the resident ‘installation idiot’ they are easy to apply. That is one a of the best points. They are removable. Swappable. Exchangeable. Changeable.

This means during installation it doesn’t matter if you need to reposition. And believe me I did. But now installed for mr and mrs panda’s phones they look great.

Gelaskins also offer a free iPhone app downloadable from the app store to keep your wallpaper fresh. All for free.

Tail Feathers by Tula Pink

Go and get some. They are really great. And less then 1mm thick. You cannot even feel the beautiful skin on your phone.

Totally recommend this life hack.

Honestly

Speaker by [Apple*] well sort of

October 28, 2011

Purchased this the other day as I sat in my office my iPhone playing music on loud speaker as the owner of any smart phone would know, just doesn’t cut it.

So I decided to start browsing eBay for some sort of cost effective, well designed, micro speaker or dock.

This one jumped out of the page at me. I can’t give specific URL to find the product as it probably breaches a whole bunch of Apple copyrights, but if you are desperate and cannot find it let me know and I will give you the store details.

The packaging was right up there with Apple packaging in terms of good looks and cool science lab design. Very akin to the box I purchased my 6th gen Nano in.

and the back gave great tips to remember to back up data to your local or home computer lulz.

The product consisted of the actual tiny little speaker module, and the dual function speaker cable and usb charger cable.

The speaker has a small round black on off button on the bottom and the mini USB connector hole that serves as a connection point for the dual function cord supplied with the speaker

There isn’t a need for the unit to be plugged into power, as it is driven by a lithium ion battery, and the little apple glows white when the speaker is switched on.

and to plug your phone or whatever in? well a 3.5mm jack. Not digital signal I know but come on it is for an office not for a THX home cinema.

and with an iPod Nano 6th Gen in the form of a lunatik watch, doesn’t it make the most adorable little office stereo?

let me know if you want eBay store details!!

Raising awareness. [Again.]

October 26, 2011

Hate the game but love the story line and secretly think it is definitely based on a true story

any ways I know I have mentioned this before possibly on twitter but hopefully you guys have been watching these bastards too.

A little bit I love the thought of a company maybe not as evil and maybe a little bit more security conscious  like Umbrella Corporation running around, in a over sized bee hive under the ground.

or maybe they already are.

example.

Avon Product ‘Anew Derma Full’

 

Umbrella Corporation’s ‘T Virus’

 

Coincidence? I think not.

 

So much crap to buy, so little time

October 26, 2011

need a new welcome mat?, nerd?

 

 

or maybe you need a new flash drive

 

 

or maybe you need someone to talk to in your office?

 

or perhaps you are having an 8bit day?

 

 

 

I know, I know, it is all at thinkgeek.com but when was the last time you had a browse?

 

 

 

 

 

Ex Container housing project

October 25, 2011

YSMR Architecture are helping out with this awesome temp housing project for earthquake/tsunami effected areas of Japan, built from ex shipping containers these beautifully liveable  housing options, would have to be a lovely and welcome change from tents and demountable housing.

One of the main things voice by the extremely humble people of the Sendai area, was that privacy is something they missed – with the loss of their OWN home and their OWN belongings. These beautifully designed and affordable temp housing solutions go a long way to helping parts of the community to get back on their feet.

Fancy a 海辺の休暇?

October 24, 2011

I think I did a small article on a previous NowhereResort in Saijima last year, but never covered the other house available in Hayama.
