This idea for an iPad accessory called the iBookend found over at Variations on normal might never be picked up, but creator Dominic Wilcox is definitely on to something. (Full photo after the jump.)
Good news for smokers who want to quit for health reasons: Japanese gadget-maker Thanko has just come out with this USB-powered “e-cigarette” that’ll let you skip on the tar and nicotine by-products that you get from traditional rolls of tobacco, but you still get the good old “me-blow-smoke, me-feel-good” feeling that no amount of nicotine gum or patch can provide.
How’s this for “personal technology”? A glove with sensors, a screen, and its own brand of playground logic that’ll let you play rock-paper-scissors… with yourself. Perfect for those times when you just need to decide something and you don’t have anyone around to roshambo with. (By the way, we meant “rochambeau” as in the French way of saying “rock-paper-scissors” and not the more awesome “roshambo” game that involves kicking someone in the nuts to establish dibs).
