Magnetic Levitation



I heard Albert Einstein said if he had 100 years more to live he'd study only on magnetism. I love magnets too especially when they are strong enough to levitate stuff of my interest. This is a new method of POP display I spotted at a Hong Kong show but it would be glorious if it was a charger too. You know? An induction charger that floats the gadgets too.

Two Simple iPad Product Concepts

My best ideas surface after I hold the device but for now I can think of 2 basic homerun products for the Apple iPad.

That screen will be just awesome to sketch on. A pen with a capacitative tip would be a good tool for designers.
iPad needs to be carried around. A leash to make that simpler might be useful too.

Hakan Pehlivan Oils Up for SFIV

  2. I wasn't particularly thinking of an oil wrestler but more an Istanbul style street fighter who fights a bit dirty, head butts unexpectedly etc.
Regardless; here's Hakan Pehlivan, second major Turkish video game character after MGS' Big Boss.
