<p>If you just finished reading about the <a href="http://www.coated.com/betsey-johnson-bow-watch-your-wrist-is-gift-wrapped/">Betsey Johnson Bow Watch</a> and thought wow, that is one odd watch, here is a watch that may interest you.</p>
<p><span id="more-237"></span>The USB Ribbon Cable watch is still a concept watch, but will appeal to the geek at heart.  The strap of the watch appears to be an IDE ribbon cable, while the actual clasp is made from a usb connector.  Called the Timeless Watch, this watch can be charged through any usb port.  </p>
<p>As mentioned, this watch is still a design concept, but if you&#8217;ve got a knack for do it yourself projects, this may be one project you might be interested in completing yourself.</p>

<p>This looks like one tacky watch.  The contraption on your wrist looks like a black bow.  However, in actuality, it&#8217;s really a watch, a Betsey Johnson Bow watch.  The watch is targeted to females.  When you flip the top of the bow, the watch is revealed as is a small mirror.</p>
<p><span id="more-236"></span>The watch retails at $75, so it isn&#8217;t cheap.  It may appeal to some, but personally, I would suggest saving your money.  If you must satisfy your urge to own a really geeky gadget watch, you may want to check out a couple of other models such as the <a href="http://www.coated.com/multi-color-led-watch-to-match-your-emotions/">multi color led watch</a> or the <a href="http://www.coated.com/galaxy-watch-by-tokyo-flash/">Galaxy Watch</a> by Tokyo Flash.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s often been said that when we eat food, we actually eat with all of our senses.  Taste is the obvious one, but part of eating is to smell the wonderful aromas given off by food as well as the sight of properly presented food.  Drinking lattes has become an American pass time, especially amongst the hip and the trendy.</p>
<p><span id="more-235"></span>One of the most beautiful things about a properly presented latte is the designs that some of the coffee shops can create.  In fact, it really is an art form as there is quite a bit of technique involved in designing proper latte art.  </p>
<p>If you are interested in latte art, check out the below video which is quite impressive.</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZDZs__m5iAI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZDZs__m5iAI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p>For those that aren&#8217;t so inclined or don&#8217;t have the time to learn this art form, can still create some rather interesting affects using the Kitchen Craft Shaker Stencils.  With these stencils, first pour your favorite warm beverage.  Over the beverage, hold the stencil of choice and shake chocolate power or for that matter any power that you prefer.  When the stencil is removed, the design below becomes visible for all to marvel.</p>
<p>This is quite an easy way to achieve some latte art and you can certainly impress your family and friends as the designs look great.</p>

<p>Is Iphone and iBeer the modern day version of chocolate and peanut butter?  If download sales on the iTunes App store are any indication, then I guess so as iBeer 2.0 is the sixth most popular download.  So the question is, what is iBeer 2.0?</p>
<p><span id="more-234"></span>iBeer is an iPhone app that simulates the wonders of beer.  Start by brewing your beer and your iphone screen fills up with beer.  As you lift the iphone towards your mouth in a drinking motion, the iBeer tilts in the direction of your mouth.  Shaking your phone causes iBeer to foam up again.  Once you&#8217;ve finished your iBeer, the app goes so far as to make a burping sound.</p>

<p>Fashion and style are the rage these days.  Everything we do and have has a certain style, whether it be from the most obvious such as our clothing style, all the way to the skins we use for our various remote controls.  I think GDIS has a hit on their hands with their designer external hard drives.</p>
<p><span id="more-233"></span>The GDIS external drives, called Spica Art Drives, come in 13 different colors as well as a variety of different patterns such as tree, chrysanthemum, and azalea.  Pricing for the Spica Art drives are $142.00 USD for a 250 GB hard drive, and $177.00 USD for a 320 GB hard drive.</p>

<p>If Swedish designers Jens Andersson and Jonas Forsman have there way, there will soon be a new way to drink wine&#8230;.in a pop can.  It sure doesn&#8217;t sound like an elegant means of drinking wine.  Pop the can and then what?  How are you supposed to sniff the cork&#8230;wait a minute, there is no cork.  Can you sniff the pull tab?  How about winos who used to hold their bottles in brown paper bags, won&#8217;t the cans just fall if their not held properly as they don&#8217;t have an easy to hold neck?</p>
<p><span id="more-232"></span>Oh I know wine purists just aren&#8217;t going to go for this, as there is an art to drinking wine.  Heck, it&#8217;s wine, not a common every day drink like beer.  However, these wine cans are available to any wine company interested in pioneering this new mode of delivery.</p>
<p>So far there have been no takers for this device, but you just have to wonder what a little marketing would do for this product.  Some of the strangest products have just taken off with the right advertising campaign.</p>
