    Dig this…I think this type of device is an example of how our phones will start connecting back more often to the physical world to create something whimsical and fun. 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. via jonathanmoore: Little Printer This tiny, ticker-tap like device from BERG design consultancy is their latest product launch that merges digital and physical to create a fun and playful gadget. 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. From looking at the Little Printer site, it appears that it is the first of many playful home electronic products that they plan on launching for their new BERG Cloud device that lives on your home’s network.

    From my friend Sebastian: “I think of this “Swiss Army tool/battery/case” like a “concept car” trying to capture people’s imagination and tap into the fascination men have always had for gadgets and tools. It combines an iPhone with your key survival tools in a single pocket piece.”

    Like this iPhone app because it forces you to talk to other people…and breaks down the uncomfortable language barrier with a little humor.  Anyone who has traveled in a foreign country and not been able to speak knows a little laughter can make all the difference.

    Been waiting on this one. You still have to unlock the car initially with your card, but you can lock/unlock it after that the rest of your trip and it has the ability to easily extend reservations, which traditionally has been an annoying process as well as locate your car by honking it remotely with your phone.

    In Response To: A Bunch Of People Are Getting Together!

    I have to disagree with you here Jake.  If anything, the barrage of glowing rectangles has made my personal relationships, the times I spend talking face to face, listening to a band live, shooting a basketball, the pleasure of a spontaneous contagious laugh or a hug…more valuable, more rewarding and more important.

    A reason for socializing is to exchange information so each brain can be refueled with the latest environmental data.

    But now we get so much of that same information from the feeds on our rectangles.

    Therefore, ‘hanging out with a bunch of people’ is more likely to be a waste of time.

    In your world, has ‘hanging out with a bunch of people’ changed in the past few years?
