Kindle 2.0: Reading with one hand

Jeff Bezos Does The Daily Show

Jeff Bezos (founder and owner of Amazon.com) was visiting Jon Stewart on the Daily Show recently. It seemed pretty much to be a marketing stunt to promote the Kindle 2, but hey, can you blaim the man?? Awesome product … and as Bezos claims: You can read with one hand … ;o))

I think the price ($359 on amazon) might a bit too high considering you need to buy all the books as well, but the convenience of 8-10 seconds from idea to actually having the eBook in your hand is probably worth it if you read alot …

Baconnaise – The Ultimate Bacon Flavored Spread

Baconnaise 3-pack

Bacon – The Holy Grail of food … now to be found as Bacoonnaise. A bacon flavored spread… WTF?!??? Come on guys … I love bacon more than the next guy, but this is almost too much… No, wait: IT IS TOO MUCH!!!

Being European you can only be amazed (or rather truely shocked) with some of the so-called food products on the US market. I can’t help myself for mentioning: I Can’t Believe Its Not Butter (a spray-on margarine product?? *yikes*), Sugarfree Maple Leaf Syrup

devolution de vision

(how the hell do you make suryp sugar free???), Pepsi (big No-no ….) and now: Baconnaise. Why would you rather put a bacon flavored spread on your sandwich then put a real piece of piggy bacon between the buns??

I almost wet myself with the ad below: “No Artificial Flavors!”…. no comments…

Noby Noby Boy

Noby Noby Boy

Noby Noby Boy (Nobi Nobi Boy) might be the (best) excuse for me for getting myself a Playstation 3.

I loved the game Katamari Damarcy, that was the first game from Keita Takahashi. And now with the new Noby Noby Boy he has done it again. A strange, but loving game in the characteristic graphics from the Katamari games … whats not to love??

The official site have the coolest URL: http://o–o.jp/. Gotta love the Japanese for this …

Orbitwheels Rocks!!

Check out this instruction video for the Orbitwheels. Damn it looks like the mix of old inline skates and my skateboard I’ve always wanted… The safety of the bastards are probably not worth mentioning, but who has ever had that in mind when going backwards down a flight of stairs on rollerblades? At least not until you sat waiting for 3 hours in the ER (I personally think they let you wait extra long when you report a skating accident.. Bastard Doctors!!). However it would be nice to see how you actually brake in them… (you might have noticed I skipped the 1:33 minute long safety warning of the same reason)

Pricetag lets you wonder why they are not already on your feet: 119 USD with Inventist. Gotta get me a pair soon!!

The minimalistic design alone with the hubless wheels are incredible… but reminds of the bike I just scrolled by earlier today … The Swordfish which seems to be a concept bike for now:

Designed by Alexander Kotlyarevsky. Beautiful…

Freezing at Grand Central Station

The fantastic event by Improv Everywhere, where a huge number of people (207 to be precise!) suddenly freeze for minutes to the surprise of everyone else is amazing … I can watch it again and again. Think about it… 207 living statues in at the Grand Central Station in New York.

Kaiser Chiefs in Vega Kaiser Chiefs in Vega Kaiser Chiefs in Vega

An awesome concert in Vega, Copenhagen, with the Kaiser Chiefs … and some nice shots with the iPhone. I can’t believe the quality of the camera in that thing …

Looking forward to the next time they are in Copenhagen.
