 BRILLIANT!!!  I’ll take a dozen please.

Magis MultiPot Lamp and Device Storage Unit

If you’re anything like us, you have more than a few gadgets that you carry around with you all day, and you never know where to put them down or plug them in for recharging when you get home. The MultiPot, designed by Dante Donegani and Giovanni Lauda, is a bucket-shaped LED lamp with space on top for depositing your keys and devices, a multisocket in the bottom for plugging chargers into and storage space in the middle to hide all the unsightly cables away.

The MultiPot is made of high grade plastic and available in five color options (Clear, White, Amber, Chrome, and Black) but only takes 220V. We’d love to get one for ourselves but €152.25/$188.33 plus shipping from Europe is way out of budget, so we’ll just keep leaving our things on the dining room table.

Dog Simulation Game

April 17th, 2006

 Yes, work has been killing me and I haven’t posted for a month.  But what with world events being awful and my life being a blur of work, sleep and more work what could snap me out of it enough to post here?  This. 

Let me say before you read on that I have followed many online time suckers.  Silly, repetitive text based games that took hours to play and were, in essence, multiplayer Zork.  But this one takes the cake.  I like dogs, but I can’t imagine spending hours a day raising up a virtual kennel. 

Dog Simulation Game – Fantasy football leagues not your thing? Think stock market sims are too dry? Have you ever dreamed of having your own quality dogs to raise, feed, groom, train, breed, and show? Monday non-flash fun, requires sign-up.
