In 2008 I wrote about a bunch of gloves that would not only keep you warm, but also allow you to use your iPhone at the same time. Now one of these companies, Etre, has upgraded their product.

As Simon wrote:
"Last season's gloves were spun from 100% acrylic yarn, making them nearly as soft, warm, and comfortable as a pair of woolly gloves. Nearly, but not quite. Well, nearly isn't good enough for us, so this year we've spun them from 100% lambs' wool instead, making them as soft, warm, and comfortable as is humanly (or sheepishly) possible. Imagine stroking a little lamb...that's just stumbled out of a tumble drier...after bathing in fabric softener - that's how a new pair of Etre Touchy gloves feels."
I just love that description!






Apart from that, they are now also more durable, comes in more sizes and colors. And if you buy more than 20, you can design your own from any of their 120 available custom colors.

There is something intriguing and very odd about combining water fixtures and lamps. I wrote about the rough looking lamp, made of steel pipes, a while ago, but now you can get a similar lamp in a more contemporary design.

The famous Hollywood sign in California was in deep trouble last month. Fox River Financial Resources, the company who owns it, wanted to divide that land up into five sites for $40 million luxury homes - effectively taking down the sign to make room.

Many moons ago, back in August 2007, I posted a very popular article about the Skelewags. They are a number of very creative drawings made by Richard Vermaak. Now, the Skelewags are back - big time!

Earlier last month I was asked whether I had any ideas for a car wrap design for a 2009 Rolls Royce Phantom. The wrap was for one of the participants of this year's Gumball 3000, who wanted to stand out a bit.

Here is something for all you classic gaming geeks. What if all the old gaming characters from the 1980s broke out and started rampaging through New York?

It was already late in the afternoon when the two horsemen came riding into the camp from the north. Indy was in his tent resting when he heard that familiar deep bellow that he had known for so many years. "Indy!" the baritone called out. Immediately Indy was on his feet and walking outside.

There are a ton of very beautiful laptop bags on the market, but sometimes you still see something that stands above the crowd. This is the case with these laptop bags from TravelTeq.

Here is something for all you brand freaks out there. The Logorama short film. It's not for kids, it's nasty, it's cruel - but it is incredibly well made.
