But the OpenFrame platform designed by OpenPeak has enough eye candy to catch my attention. While many cellphone manufacturers are rushing to [...] Thu, 21 Aug 2008 13:45:13 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68503365 2008-08-21T13:45:13Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68492612 By Andrew Liszewski From the DIY department comes this novel safety vest designed by Brady Clark and engineered by Mykle Hansen which shows the rider’s current speed in MPH on the back using electroluminescent wiring. The system consists of a wheel speed sensor, a wearable numeric display and a small computer that does the thinking. The computer [...] Thu, 21 Aug 2008 13:18:58 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68492612 2008-08-21T13:18:58Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68492613 By Andrew Liszewski The Japanese (at least those living in Tokyo) seem to have a real fascination/appreciation for the Yamanote commuter line. First it was commemorated with a novelty alarm clock that included actual sounds from the stations, and now it’s the inspiration for a series of unique watches designed to look like the electronic bulletin [...] Thu, 21 Aug 2008 13:01:29 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68492613 2008-08-21T13:01:29Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68514257 By Andrew Liszewski Its kind of hard to get excited about a landline phone these days, particularly when most of us are considering ditching them in favor of VOIP or strictly using a cellphone.

According to the company’s ‘research’, they found that 3/4 of UK workers felt stressed on a daily basis, but taking a walk in the park was enough to make them [...] Thu, 21 Aug 2008 03:27:32 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68443343 2008-08-21T03:27:32Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Andrew+Liszewski?rinfoid=68368801 By Andrew Liszewski I’m still trying to figure out if this PR stunt by Krispy Kreme is nothing more than a sight-gag, or an actual giveaway.

It looks like a similar site called 8tracks could possibly be a suitable alternative to Muxtape for those of us in withdrawal.
