Keyboard shoes

Keyboard shoes!I know what your thinking… what can I get for my computer loving (read: Geek) partner for their Birthday/Christmas that’s a… bit different?

Well… the answer is (obviously) – Keyboard Shoes!

Made from old keyboards, these proto-type (sorry!) were shown off at the 14th China International Clothing & Accessories Fair in Bejing.

Yeah, because I’d really like to sit tapping my fingers on a keyboard all day, only to have my toes taping on keys on the way home too! Bizzare.

The Microsoft iPod packageWhat if Microsoft redesigned the branding for Apples’ iPod?

This is a slick little three minute movie showing just how MS goes about designing/redesigning their packaging. Possibly ;)

And… it’s funny because it’s true.

Honda ASIMOHonda have an updated ASIMO robot out, along with a new dedicated information website.

The humanoid robot now features the ability to pursue key tasks in a real-life environment such as an office and an advanced level of physical capabilities.

There are tonnes of pictures, and videos to watch too. All I want to know is – When can I buy one? :-)
