Dyson DC07 Pink

First to recommend

Description

$40 of your purchase of this will go to abThink Pink cause (Breast cancer related causes). I think that's a very generous percentage. Dyson's are great... and the fact it's in pink is actually kinda cool. You just don't expect an appliance to be pink.

3-Wheel Electric Trike

First to recommend

Description

Yesterday I was just saying how I want an electric tricycle to "walk my dogs" with, because they need a lot more exercise than the regular walks we give them. A two-wheel bicycle is scary. They're 120 lbs each, so my vision of crashing violently on the streets of Oakland may be more reality than dream.

Today I found this electric three-wheel trike from Rapture. It's cool! It's street legal, has a 20-mile range, and can go up to 15 MPH.

I want one!

Onguard Locking Skewer Set

First to recommend

Description

Recommended by Cool Hunting, this lock is discreet and uses a one-of-a-kind rachet key, which is the key to prevent lock-picking. They tested it, and it worked, except for the handle was stolen... Lock doesn't lock down the handle. Hmmm. Didn't even know that people stole handles. I like the engineering. Smart. (via Cool Hunting)

Medison Celebrity

First to recommend

Description

This is the computer I would buy for my 78 year-old Mom. She recently learned how to track her stock investment, which is hilarious because she just learned what it's about an invests a good amount of $10,000. (She thinks it's like gambling in Las Vegas, hence the low amount.)

She may use email to receive photos from her kids and grand kids. My dad would surf the web, and would definitely view all soccer-related videos, as soon as he learns about YouTube.

For $150, this laptop handles the basic needs like email, web browsing, word processing and simple spreadsheet. It comes fully loaded and ready to use. It's thin for easy transport.

Yeap. A fancy word processor with web browsing capabilities. (Hey,kinda like a giant handheld PDA, but without phone capabilities.)

A cure for depression not with a pill but instead with permanent implants of two electrodes that provide deep stimulation to the brain. This is serious matrix stuff. I like it. (via The Cool Hunter)

Giorgio Armani Samsung Mobile

Description

Sleek looking with a few cool details, such as a help signal to five pre-programmed numbers and theft notifier if the sim card gets switched. I would like a screaming whistle instead of the preprogrammed numbers though... Or both! (via CrunchGear)

the indispensible bungee cord

First to recommend

One of the most useful tools to have around. I love inventions that are simple, yet they serve many purpose to make everyday life a little easier. What/how I use(d) my bungees...

Holds down the stainless cooler in SUV
Keeps shade structure intact at Burning Man.
Holds multiple the sleeping bags together
Holds down car trunk door for large items.
Keeps the temporary shower caddy steady.
Bundles my firewood for easy transport.
Stabilize fragile items during drive.
Extra lock mechanism for storage bins.
Moveable hanger for garden hose.
Moved large bamboo on top of car.
Bands long cables (smaller bungees).
A temporary clothesline inside my tent.
A temporary clothesline outside my tent (tree to tree).
Held up my neighbor's tree to our fence.
Tied down giant ice block to bicycle.
Dog chew toy (not by choice).

Once, I got mad at my boyfriend for doing physical work, as he has a bad back. I bungeed him down to a lawn chair.
