Just wait until 3D printing becomes the norm. Not for a few years because of costs but you can imagine taking a photo of a hat in a store and sending it directly to my friends 3D printer at home.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Little Printer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This tiny, ticker-tap like device from &lt;a href="http://berglondon.com/" target="_blank"&gt;BERG&lt;/a&gt; design consultancy is their latest product launch that merges digital and physical to create a fun and playful gadget.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Little Printer lives in your home, bringing you news, puzzles and gossip from friends. Use your smartphone to set up subscriptions and Little Printer will gather them together to create a timely, beautiful mini-newspaper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From looking at the &lt;a href="http://bergcloud.com/littleprinter/" target="_blank"&gt;Little Printer site&lt;/a&gt;, it appears that it is the first of many playful home electronic products that they plan on launching for their new &lt;a href="http://bergcloud.com/" target="_blank"&gt;BERG Cloud&lt;/a&gt; device that lives on your home’s network.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As this year concludes, RIP GSH, he was clearly a genius but his demons got him in the end.  He recorded this song over 30 years ago, how right was he in 2011??&lt;/p&gt;
