DISQUS

Congrats on the 3,000th post, Andrew.
I read the site daily (mon-fri) and hope you guys continue the great work you've been doing for all these years now.

As for the product: 230 bucks?! that's pretty steep considering it only gives you 15 feet when streaming video and the alternatives at hand.

I'm between the first and the second picture, but in this case, more is better, so I'll go with the Isis Dei girls.

You guys certainly have gotten your hands on some pretty good gifts this season.
I wish I could come up with some reference to the cold, but living in Mexico just made me forget how sub 0 temperatures felt like. Sorry, no reference here! Still hope I win though.

On the other hand, as a daily reader of your blog, I want to wish you all the best hollidays and keep up the good and sometimes hillarious posts in 2009.

Whohoo, finally the foreigners can win!

I agree its a bit juvenile, like a grafitti/nerd mix. Personally, I won't wear it, but I'm sure that's just my taste.

It says Trekking Mahlzeiten, which means something like "outdoor/trekking dinners" in german, so its not exactly aimed at home or backyard bbq use.
I think we would all agree on the taste, but it'll surely beat starving in the wilderness. Still though, cheesburger in a can... Who would have thought we'd live to see the day?

Let me guess, the clamshell opener is packed in a plastic clamshell.

Personally i never had problems opening up those clamshell packages with kitchen knifes. The thing that drives me crazy though, is that i dont have a kitchenknife with me when i just bought a gadget in a store, which leads me to using my teeth because: who wants to wait opening up what they just bought?

Not the shifting without exposed gear, nor the automatic shifting is new on bikes. I've seen them before, even on branded bikes. I wonder though why oh why people would want a automatic gear box in their bike.

Nice, it certainly loads a whole lot faster.

I like the way Philips (and more CE producers) is thinking. Instead of making us drool with all sorts of prototype products, they actually release a lot of them in selected markets and small number. Instead of only targeting mass consumers, they are creating a diversion in their products, sort of testing the markets in a more practical way.
I like that.

This thing is quite old guys, my ex girlfriend bought it about 3 years ago in Holland. It's a pretty interesting camera that lets you make artsy photos, though the lack of any practical use makes it more a novelty item than anything else (hence the site, i guess).

80 bucks sounds way to expensive, i remember she got it for around 25 euros. Shutter interval is set at either lightning fast (about a second for all 4 shots) or slow (about 15 seconds for all 4 shots if i remember correctly)

To rewind it, you have to peel out a lever (black disc shaped thing on the upper left of the device on the picture) and wind it by hand.... pretty 1967 ey?

There you go, my product review. You can send the cheque to 234.4643.146 hehe

It's really a shame that these kind of lawsuits can be filed and get on the news. Of course the parents are not making any sense at all, and worse, show by means of worldwide media what an idiots they really are. How can they be so shameless in filing this suit? Cause to me all they are doing is showing that they didnt educate their kids well in this area and on top of that showing them that if you fuck up, you can always sue a corporate giant of choice. What life-lessons are they teaching their kids? If i were them, i'd shut up, correct the mistake (if possible) and hope no-one will ever find out.

As of MySpace, i dont like it one bit, but from what i understand a lot of people do, so why take that fun away from so many people just cause you dont like it or refuse to educate your kids accordingly?

People who hook up their pc to their tv will be interested, like me. Sounds like a good concept, though Joost at the moment seems more exiting to me.

Yep, love it!

I saw this before too. I wonder the real practical use of this as opposed to a S-video and VGA out connection on a cell. There's monitors/tv's almost everywhere. The need for a flat white surface in a dark room makes it just too hard to come up with situations in which i would use this.

At 180 pounds each, slinging some unwanted persons into outerspace is still out of reach for me. So how innovative is it really?

If i'd have the dough, i'd definatly buy it. Very cool stuff.

wouldent that mean that the top part will not insulate as well as it should?
Other than that, i think its a clever gizmo at a reasonable price.

What a great product, too bad its just a result of a designing contest and therefor not for sale. If it was though, i'd definately buy a couple.

There you have it.... The link to the blog.


The blog about Ohgizmo is the top entry.

It's in Dutch, but you can bablefish it to verify :)

Thanks again for yet another great give-away.

Sure sounds like a great package.

Sorry though that im using a blog that is no longer being read, i wish i had time to keep an active blog but some of us have more boring jobs then you guys ;)

Keep up the funny and interesting posts, you guys rock.

Hehe, i think its pretty funny. Imagine the looks on your guests' faces when they enter your house/apartment. Of course its pure novelty.

Scrolled down randomly? I would have expected a more sophisticated way of selecting a winner from you OhGizmo! guys ;)
VI, congrats. Now lets see what we can win next!

Exactely, that is a very usefull item for skiing/snowboarding. I kind of like the looks of it too, not too big (considering headphones are uncomparable with earplugs). Never heard of the brand though...

Agreed on the bit, but as far as sony-ericsson phones go, this one is stunningly beautiful.
There seems to be some kind of pen stuck on the side of the screen part, touch screen?
