Safety features have come along way since 1959 and to prove their point Chevy puts an ‘09 Malibu against a ‘59 Bel Air.  Who did you expect to win?

Man I love crashes.  I guess that’s part of being a man though.

Admit it, you’ve been thinking this all along and Etsy designer Hiphandmaids made it happen.  We introduce to you the iMaxi($30) feminine pad-themed iPad case, with wings and all.  I love it!

“It shields your iPad from all those unsightly data leaks that would make any motherboard worry!”

It comes in blood… I mean red too!

I’m not real big into house, electronica or techno but I’ve got some friends that are.  So when I saw these turntables I definitely thought of them.  The Berlin-based Metrofarm is the design house responsible for this collection of sweet, custom built turntables for DJs who want that extra style.

I didn’t watch the Oscar’s last night so I didn’t get to see this when all the cool kids did, but if you’re not a cool kid either here you go!  Apple’s first iPad TV commercial featuring “There Goes My Love” by The Blue Van.  Check it out after the break and let us know if you want one.

Impossible! http://www.freaknsweet.com/dwelling/a-lamp-made-from-wax-impossible/ http://www.freaknsweet.com/dwelling/a-lamp-made-from-wax-impossible/#comments Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:47:44 +0000 cwhitmore http://www.freaknsweet.com/?p=3003

Actually not… The Impossible Lamp by Jeeves Basu has been designed so that it initially melts to create the shade but after the shade has formed it doesn’t melt anymore.  Crazy, I know!

Switch on a lamp made of wax and it should melt and disintegrate in seconds. But due to the unique way it has been designed, the Impossible Lamp does not. It is a lamp made of wax that works without melting.

Check out a video of this thing in action after the break.

Augmented reality is growing in popularity but this is by far the best display I’ve seen.  For the new Adidas sneakers, the company has embedded codes in their tongues, which enables you to open up an online world via webcam at the Adidas website.  This is great advertising and product design!
