This video is pretty amazing. A group of developers called Bumptop aims to enrich the desktop metaphor with expressive, lightweight techniques found in the real world. The idea of a 3D desktop that mimics a real desktop is a good idea and looks very cool but i can just see how messy mine would become. [...]

This interactive table is a bit like the Audio Pad we wrote about a few weeks ago but looks like it’s more for anyone rather than a dj. I really like the idea of an interactive device that uses motion and object placement on a table to create light and music. I would really like [...]

This is a billboard that’s placed on the ground and when people walk over it the billboard will move or animate. I particularly like the water effect for the juice ad. Very slick idea and I think we could see a lot more this sort of stuff very soon.

This is pretty funny. It’s just a joke so don’t go digging out any of those old videos or photos you have of people doing stupid things and think you can use this to make a buck or two. Blackmail is illegal and it’s wrong, but sites that pretend to have software for doing just [...]

This is pretty spooky. Maybe because I worked in this building everyday for a few months. I knew it was creepy and very old but I didn’t think it was haunted. Now that I think about it, this place is the kinda place that would be haunted. The people who used to work here would [...]
