    The microsite for the Diana Mini camera makes me want to buy one. Isn't this what any good website should do? So few actually pull it off...

    Goodness from Coudal Partners.

    "Spell with buttons. There's not a whole lot more to explain after that."

    So cool. Get a custom set of letter buttons for any word or phrase you'd like. Or bite the bullet and just order the whole alphabet. My mind is reeling with the possibilities. Seems like it would be fun for kids too.

    Interesting, uber-practical application for augmented reality meets mobile technology from http://tat.se.

    "Augmented ID is a TAT concept that visualizes the digital identities of people you meet in real life. With a mobile device and face recognition software from Polar Rose, Augmented ID enables you to discover selected information about people around you. All users control their own augmented appearance, by selecting the content and social network links they want show to others. Modifying your augmented ID is easier than fixing your hair in real life and, of course, TAT Cascades will make sure you look great! "

    Field Notes memo books in my signature "Verdino Green" (so what if they call it something different)? How can I not sign up for a 100 Colors subscription just so I can get a 3-pack of these bad boys...

    This next generation touch-based netbook looks like it could spark techno lust among the geek boys (even if it isn't an Apple):

    "Give up on that mythical iTablet for a minute and feast your eyes on the Archos 9 ($625; Fall 09). This thin (0.63'') netbook/tablet PC device sports a 9-inch touchscreen and runs Windows 7. Powered by an Intel ATOM Z515 processor, the Archos 9 features an 80GB hard drive, webcam, Bluetooth, optical trackpoint, Wi-Fi, built-in speakers, and optional 3G wireless."
