i landed on page 256 and i seen this car looking thing. well this car looking thing is called the gym concept car. this thing is really neat. it is a fully electronical car, which is great for our enviroment. so we all know about electric powered cars, big deal right? WRONG! this car is not plugged into a power outlet to charge it is you who charges it. the more you work out the more it charges. i think this thing is sweet it helps fight 2 of the major issues in america. polution, and obesity.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/12/14/charge-up-your-car-inside-your-car/
I landed on page 227. I found this speakers in shape of a cube. you can break them apart and create 5 speakers and you can put them anywhere around the house & then Party!! :) no but i would actually buy them. http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/03/24/cube-speakers/
i wanted to comment about "One Leg, But Still Can Walk With Pride". this is on page 227. i like this prosthetic leg because it can help a lot with the amputations that occur annualy. i think that this will help many people who have lost their leg in a war, or in landmines (15000-20000 people a year). this will help people regain their confidence, and not have to go through another miserable day not having a leg.
http://www.yankodesign.com/page/227/
I landed on page 256. I saw this toaster looking thing that doesn't toast anything. Instead of toasting bread it charges your lithium ion batteries! I think thats pretty neat, its unusual but thats why I like it. After its done charging the battery pops up, how cute lol
on page 227 i saw this prosthetic leg for the people that have been injured. i like this because those that have been injured and lost a leg can have a leg again
On page 332 there is a cup called your spoon is doomed. Its a cup but the bottom bloats out and there is a ball. So you can add sugar or cream to tea or coffee and there is no need for a spoon. You just swirl the cup around and the ball stirs it all up.
i landed on page 192.......
GEE ZERO HOT HOT CELLPHONE!!!!
its pretty cool it runs on an android and google chrome. it has a google has oLED touch panel, slide body ....and last but not least it has a mood teller on the back....
red flashing...low battery
green...100% cell
white flashing...incoming call
its pretty cool and in the future we might not need computers any more..we'll just download everything we need from the internet..i kinda want one now-=)-!!!
the future of work on page 193 is cool i like how the newspaper is given becouse the newspapers now are getting to big and i thank this wound be better. buy i dont thank you could just throw it out of a moving car like we do now. but still a good idea
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/03/24/cube-speakers/ Page 227
This cube speaker is really neat the way you can have five speakers and one woofer in one cube, plus it splits into their dividual pieces to then reform into a cube. Not only is the main base unit which is the charger for all five pieces, it is also the device that controls the volume. The only draw back of this portable speaker is that its about 3-4 inches long on each side so you can't carry it around in your pocket. It's really great as a home speaker though so this would be a great gift to anyone who likes jamming.
I landed page 94 and i found this managing medicine machines. It basically is machine that organizes your medicine intake. I like this product because there are alot of old people that forget to take their medicine and that can be dangerous at times, so i think this would be a big help for the old people .
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/12/04/managing-medicines/
I landed on page 227 and saw an awesome invetion which is a bamboo with a speaker in it, Which you have to grow to get better sound.
As you may have already heard on the news the honey bees are dying and birds are acting wierd like the ones that fell and died, Oh and also sharks attacking boats. This is all wierd things and i think they are happening because we mess up the environment.
This bamboo speaker will help the environment because is a real bamboo you have to grow in order for your speaker to get louder.
I landed on pg. 298 were I found this hood air "hoodie" that like a pillow. Is soft and roomy in the inside you can fall right to sleep in it. I could really use this because im always sleeping and a lot of the times the desk are super hard. This is something that I would probably buy one day.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/07/14/hooded-up/
Page 309- The sound of music. Its a bike with flute like ocarinas on the handle bars, when u ride around, wind goes into them and it plays notes! so awesome! and u can control the pitches. and u can go faster for a better/ richer sound! this is so cool, i would deffinitely get this. i love the ocarina!! i would enjoy riding a bike that much more.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/02/03/difference-between-life-and-death-is-a-light/
I discovered this device on page 243. Its a nike combat suit, that has Electro Luminescent lights that are enconded in the suit so you can run or work out in the dark! This will increase life expectancy while exercising in the dark!
Im on page 340 looking at a Gucci bracelet watch with a sliding door revealing a glass LED display? YEAH...
Now im on page 186 looking at the "WHITE VAPOR" its a concept car by michelin, it has no doors or roof but it seats two people. the car is made of nothing but aluminum and carbon. i would drive this around town but i would hate to get caught driving it when it rains
Hit page 309. The Sound from Wind is a pretty nifty thingamajig. It replaces the handlebars on your bike with ones that have this tube things that catch the wind. In the handlebars themselves are holes, so you play it like a flute or ocarina as you ride. Would make bike riding much more enjoyable.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/05/28/the-sound-of-music/
I landed on pg. 164 and saw the Smart watch. I think this watch is really cool because it has Bluetooth which enables indoor localization, and GPS! It also " Learns you! It knows what you want and keeps you up to date." Thanks to its neat processor and latest technology in human-machine learning! That watch is super balla!!
Coffee cup with brass knuckles, take sip then start boxing what is better than that. I really need one.

USB Digital Camera Fakes Analog
ok this is kool to me
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/01/22/usb-digital-camera-fakes-analog/
page 340
so when i hit the inspire button it took me to page 357 where i found something called the ping pong door it functions like a regular door but has a inner panel that flips down and makes a ping pong table it looks really fun
i landed on page 112 and i saw the coolest set of traffic cones ever!!! They are inflatible which means that you can run over them and it wont make your car slide out of control
I landed on page 327;
Its called the Nyamuk. It goes from full tent to hammock complete with mosquito net to cover it. ( Tent turning into a sleeping bag ) It would be pretty helpful for people who enjoy the nature or one pretty summer nite you could camp out, not so sure if I would sleep in it but yah I thought it was pretty cool.
Page 31
Supernatural Coke
This product changes the design of a coke bottle and turns it into a more modern and sleek design. It looks cooler but it doesn't have the iconic coke bottle Coca Cola has become famous off. Because of this, the product most likely will not be bought by the Coca Cola company but it still looks cool to have one personally like a water bottle and drink in style.
Page 46, found the Walnut Player, an mp3 player that is designed to look like a pair of walnuts. The Walnut Player is designed to work for even the visually impaired. It uses braille to label the buttons. The player is also rechargable by walnut rolling it. This also allows you to change tracks. This looks like a really cool and new design, and just seeing it made me want one. http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/09/03/walnuts-for-music/
page 437
pull up a pencil
that's crazy who would want to sit on a chair thats have pencils sticking out of it.it very poinless well it is to me.But, you would never lose your pencils you would alwaays know where they are at if you need one.But its still pointless to have them inside a chair sitting on top of them.
Ok I'm all for the spacey furniture design these days and I found that on page 321.
It's called the loopty loop chair and it's pretty neat, The fact that this chair can stretch out and allow 1-3 people to sit in it is awesome.Although it's really close to the floor and that might be uncomfortable to some people.
On pg 1 I found a Wok that has a fan built in the handle that will suck up the steam or smoke while you are cooking. I thought that was very helpful and a neat idea.
Optimus Tactus
pg 344
its a keyboard with out keys
its a touch screen keyboard basicly and it is very stylish
i like this because i use the computer alot and having a touch screen keyboard would make me want to stay on the computer even more.
It would change my life because id be on my computer a ton more and probly get fat and nasty
glad i dont have one :D
i landed on page 212 and i picked
the honda hovver car
i like this cause it would stepp us into a futristinct sense although i would like to know wat it runs on cause it could cut gas prices cause not so many would use gas
Yanko took me to pg.379
I found the most interesting thing. It is a A Bed That Grows With You. I liked this because you would be comfortable all the time knowing that you fit in your own bed. But the cool stuff, is that it grows with you. This could help you earn money in trying to buy a new bed every so often, this could last you a very long time...
I landed on page 214. Its this weird and awesome looking radio. It kind of looks old school. I don't think it would change my life but it would change the way I listen to music.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/05/01/flashback-fridays-panasonic-toot-a-loop-radio/
on page 80 there is a {Re-Knife Pencil Knife} i think its really stupid... you could slice a finger off. just use a sharpener!
page 30
The Nail Within!
ok this hammer has nails in the handle so when u need another nail its already in your hand and you dont have to stick the nails in your pocket and them stab you in your leg everytime you move
i landed on page 206. i love this door handle named TWIST & SHOUT. i like it becouse u dont have to carry a key and nobody can enter without the code. but at the same time i dont like it because what if you forget the code, you wont be able to enter.
http://www.yankodesign.com/page/206/
Pg.101 "coolest fire possible" this iteams its okay I guess.Yeah you might not have the smell of smoke but instead of that you might have the smell of fluid I rather have the smell of smoke than fluid I dont know about you.For me this iteam seems more dangerous then just having your fireplace lite at home. I wouldn't take the risk.
i landed on page 33 and found this two flashlights in one. What it features is a single flashlight tube that splits up into two and is connected via s florescent rope. The two split-up tubes work as powerful independent flashlights and the rope in between the two is used as a safety guide.
i landed on pg. 124 the product that i like was the product called.. One loud Table this product is a music table, you can easily play disc, find info about the artiscs etc. I really love this product because it could look so nice in my room and play all night long.
on page 124 i really like the mouse pen it would come in handy when working on photoshop, illustrator, or just paint when you want to do specific details to a picture or drawing
i a landed on page 248, with the bird cage/ fish tank duplex...
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/01/16/birds-underwater-and-fish-that-fly/
i picked this because it would be so trippy for the bird or the fish living in this.. i mean, imagine being a bird, but a fish is above you swimming in water; or, if you were a fish and a bird were flying below the water.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/12/24/recoiling-socket-in-the-wall/ Page 137
Who hasn't had that moment where that one cord wouldent reach an outlet? with this thing, the outlet can now come to you! this would come in handy some many times over. its like an extension cord installed into your wall. awesome.
On page 124 the is this folding razor. The razor is basically a cloth with razors on it, like a regular shaver, that rolls up. It comes with a pill campsil type holding case so that you can roll up yours razor and store it. The razor is easy to use and completely disposable. I like the simplness and convienience of this razor.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/06/28/pistol-grip-mug/
Okay, so I do enjoy a good cup of coffee in the morning. But, I also like to sip it in a pretty spiffy mug. This is just funny. A mug that has a handle like a pistol grip. That's just too cool. I would totally buy this.
Page 216 - Philips Off the Grid Sustainable Habitat 2020. This is a revolutionary "intelligent membrane" building exterior material that can conserve basically everything. It can capture rainwater and recycle it for domestic use and filter it for drinking, trap sunlight for electricity and solar power, harness the winds for air cooling, and channelize daylight for illumination. It would potentially eliminate the need for buildings to be connected to traditional energy and water supply systems.
I landed on Page 124. I found this water fountain called Cascade, Rome’s Resurgence by H2O its a pretty neat water fountain that could be easily installed to the ground and can easily be broken down for winter days. Its a pretty cool design I like the stainless steel design. This would be very helpfull for handicapped people that cant reach a regular water fountain.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/02/10/romes-resurgence-by-h2o/
i found this really cool organizer that hangs up on tha wall on page 153. it has three little holes to put things in, and they are shaped like tea cups. this can help you keep up with little things that can get lost easily.
i landed on the one about shoes cleaning the floor, and i think its a really good idea because its hard for some elderly people to clean up...and if they waste something they would just have to slide their foot over whatever they wasted.
Page 316: TeaCube Makes Steeping Easy
I thought this was awesome because I love tea and sometimes i forget about it making on the stove and it starts boiling too much and the tea bag breaks and so then i have to waste yummy tea.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/04/29/teacube-makes-steeping-easy/
What Winsome Ceramic Speakers
Pg.132
some computer speakers , I could used them for my computer, they look larger than normal computer speakers.
pg 2 is s watch 4 automotive enthusiasts.
it looks koo
I landed on page 430 and found a rubik cube mp3 player i thinks its pretty cool some teachers might not even know what it is thats why its so cool but i dont think it has a place for head phones so thats the down fall about that but the product is still pretty cool!!!
http://www.yankodesign.com/2007/01/17/rubik-cube-mp3-player-by-hee-yong/
Well I was inspired on page 234. The Skimmer. Basically it is a jet-ski and when you go fast enough you will be lifted into the air. I like this because it looks fun and I like the water. Plus it looks dangerous and exciting.
Im on page 234 where they have another form of a jet ski, this jet ski thought, a.k.a. the Skimmer looks almost like a whale in a way, it moves just like a jet ski, except it can reach 1.5 meters above sea level. Also it uses two engines instead of one and you shift your weight more (along with the handle bars) to control it. Besides calling it the Skimmer, another name for it is " another instrument of water born death."
I landed on 165 and stumbled upon the Harley Davidson Circa 2020. Not being a Harley Davidson fan whatsoever I really like this bike. It has the light cycle design/feel and the bike itself looks like awesome just looking at it. Who knows if this would ever actually be released however 2020 is in the name of the bike so maybe thats a hint. I would be up for buying one of these just to imagine myself on The Grid fighting others in the Tron Universe Haha. Check it out!
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/10/12/harley-davidson-2020-by-miguel-cotto/
Page 197- Direct On-Demand Transport
These things are made to reduce travel time and levels of traffic, but it also is non-polluting, so I think these personal public transportation devices would be helpful to society.
page 67
i think it is interesting that they made something for people stinky feet. well my feet don't have an odor to it. i just think it is unique to have made sommething like this. now, people with odors that they can't get rid of. this thing here is suppose to get rid of them. i jux want to see how this UV Blower for foot odor works. the thingy looks like a stick to me. just wanted to share this. well i blogged MRS.L!!;)
http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/07/08/no-more-smelly-shoes-ever/
I landed on page 289
The rainbow connection got my attention. They are rainbow color chairs that are stackable. You can connect them side ways and it makes a bench that looks like a rainbow. i would buy them.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/08/26/the-rainbow-connection/
i landed on page 128 and picked the black lambo.
i like it because its black and thats my favorite color.i like the design of the car and that the back of the car looks like a mouth.
I landed in page 216 and found this really cool robot scarecrow thingy. its whats gana take scarecrows out of their jobs. its basically a pole thingy that u stick to the ground and has these "arms" sticking out so it can use solar power and at the top of the pole theres this red eye that can detect animals up to 16,529m away, when it detects an animal it does this soic wave thingy that scares the animal. It does no damage to the animal or to humans. Be pretty cool if they could make a security thing out of this to scare away thiefs.
Okay my item is on page 234 and it is awsome like really awsome. My item is a thing called The Skimmer and underwater vehicle that you ride like a motorcycle. It is also a underwater instrument that can detect like waves that animals send out. You know like a dolphin call that sound that they make. Ya it can detect those. So ya you have to check it out cause i have to get me one of these. Pretty soon in the future you will see me with this and i will be swimming with the fishes. At the same time it is also dangerous because it is going to be easier for sharks and other carnivores to eat you and attack you, i mean arn't we suppose to be trying to reduce that kind of stuff like shark attacks, dolphin attacks, killer whale attacks, etc. Oh well it ain't my problem so i am not gonna worry about it.
MRS. LANHAM I BLOGGED SO GIVE ME MY 100 CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU WANT TOO.
On page 108 I found the infinite usb. It seems like it could be useful if you dont have many usb ports but if you use too many it could be unstable.
on page 278 is a hanging hard drive that hangs from the top of your laptop a very convienient design to ocupy less work space.
I landed on page 433 after only 15 trys and found this really cool placemat. Its cool because it is also digital it has pictures downloaded on to it. And i just think it would be great to purchase, own, and utterly destroy in an "accident"! I think it will make our lives better by giving us something to look forward to at dinner time.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/01/04/cheers-to-finger-power/
Finger Power!!!
wow that sounds wrong but watever. now there is a battery were u spin it on ur finger. it has 25min on standby(like u have it on but u dnt use it to talk or txt), and 2min for use(like u wont stop using it,like some ppl). now if they could make it last longer then 2mins and u dnt have to turn ur fone on/off every 120seconds then it would be a great little battery. o and it has a little comic strip on the page, i thougt it was a little funny.
on page 128 i saw the Lamborghini the wat the car was spahed it was so futuer like and it would be cool to have one
pg 94 i found the safest bike ever it has
Duel Airbags
Front Side Crumple Zone
Proximity Camera/Braking System
Night Vision Front Facing Camera
Traction Control
140hp V-Twin Engine made of 50% Heat Resistant Plastic
Frame integrated wiring and hose system to minimize bulk and chance of damage
Lithium Sulfide powered 60w Electric Engine with a 2 speed gearbox built into the rear rim
6 Speed Clutch with available Auto Transmission
Magnetic Brakes
Hydraulic Back-Up System
Electronically Controlled Brakes, Clutch and Throt every body would drive this bike
I somewhat like the "Do It All Knife", as seen on page 363. This could REALLY come in handy in the kitchen, and maybe it could serve other purposes in the home as well. Plus, its handle is partially green and looks soft and easy to grip.
my yanko design is the underwater pen on page 363 i like it beacuse it such a over kill that it is cool in a way that if you tried to write a note underwater the paper would get soggy and be no good its like the pen that you can use in outerspace but a underwater version
i landed on page 45 and saw this plug in that had a blue plastic veil that covered the metal plugs and it had a button to make sure you dont accidentally unplug it. I like it because i have multiple young cousins and i dont want them deep fryed cuz they were jackin with the plugs so this is a safer method to ensure they wont get fried.
Page 363.
Do It All Knife.
I thought this was really neat because you can do ALOT of stuff with just one knife instead of having to grab different things. So all you need is some food and that one knife and your ready to go (:
i landed on page 363 and saw the bored jacket. This is basically a jacket made of velcro. If u prush up against someone else wearing a bored jacket you will get stuck together. This is suposed to help bored ppl meat new friends. I think its more like creeper technology. I mean who wants to get stuck to random strangers for fun??? how weird!!! I can even see kidnappers getting stuck to their victims on pourpous and running away with them... :O
I landed on page 45 and found the total safety plug ... its basically a rumber tip that is placed around electrical plugs to prevent people from being electricuted when they are plugging something in the wall ... i guess its a good idea if you have small children or whatever ... but if your're too dumb to plug something in the wall without killing yourself maybe you just shouldnt mess with anything electrical in the first place...
Page 104, Levelus Spirit Level Perfume. It has a nice aroma, guaranteed to let the ladies know when a man's man has arrived, and the bottle also works as a level, which is all too legit. It might be a little useless after a few sprays, but at least you can down one job looking like a total hoss. "Yeah it's level. Oh I smell? Not anymore." Boom.
I landed on page 212 & i chose the 4 in 1 tool. Two kinds of shovels, a hoe (natch!) and a broom all in a neatly packed mobile set. This is great if you prefer less clutter & i doubt its that heavy.
page 261 design your own bike. i like it because i dont want a bike with nothing to do. i want to design my own graphics and make the bike look the way i want it to like
Landing on pg.104 I saw this nifty camera that you can put on you pet and you'll be able to see where and what your pet is doing.
YAY PET VISION!
It's pretty useful, especially if you maybe lost your pet and good for the disabled.
i cose the mobile script phone becasue it needs no battery.
on page 149 there's a "Stinking Lazy Slobs Don’t Sweat". It's a device shaped as a lamppost and you just hanged your clothes inside the lampost. Its purpose its to make clean laundry without wasting water and electricity. It gets rid of the bad odor and refreshes with clean air. Its perfect for lazy slobs or college students.
http://www.yankodesign.com/search/x+box/page/149/
Pg 162 its a real lifesaver. not one of those dinky little floaties that wont do a drowning person any good but its a survival float. heating and GPS? small storage for food and water? and its even powered by the saltwater? heck yes. thats great for people that are likely to fall off the boat and drown in the ocean. :P
On page 154 there is an idea for a convertible-space train in which unneeded seats fold down kind of like the seats in a movie theatre. It could be useful in crowded urban areas
So i found this jacket on page 363. It's called "The Bored Jacket" and is possibly one of the most ridiculous, awesome, stupid, amazingly simple and annoying this ever created. The jacket is fitted with multiple strips of velcro which allow the wearer of the jacket to attach and "meet up" with different people. Pretty nifty...

That would be great for me, I hate when I have all those cabels on and under my table.. This would help me to organize them, and put all of them together.
I landed on page 209 and the portable shower caught my eye. Always on the go, having a portable shower would save you that extra stop home after a tiring soccer game for a shower. This design would also be helpful during the summer, specifically for women who enjoy laying out to catch some rays but end up sticky from sweat and tanning lotion. This invention would make things quick and easy for many people around the world.
http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/05/25/how-about-a-shower-in-your-backyard/
on 337 i like the dont drop the soap gadget. it could come in hand for a lot of people and not just convicts
i landed on page 274 and what i liked about this page was the E ink is a cell phone that would answer any call this phone can help the people to be able to communicate and keep in touch. this cells phone device is need in case of an emergency their is no phone near by to make a call
you can find this at
http://www.yanko design.com/
On page 408 there is a USB Flash Drive Watch.
Now u cant loose ur flashdrive.

http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/05/20/shake-up-some-music/
It's called the Shake Up Some Music
It's really cool because it's basically an iHome but it can change the frequency of the music for different times like relaxing, working, and partying. That could be pretty useful instead of messing with the volume.

Remotely transmit asmatic readings to your doctor via the iphone.
This is great this will allow your doctor to monitor your status at all times this has the potential to saves lives.
page 64. Automotive Yellow Power
I LOVE this car!!! I love everything about it, its simply beautiful. The paint is flawless and it glows. When it said it had a twin turbo V10 engine i almost died. Its like the Italian German love child blessing. When the car goes on the market im gunna work really hard to buy it then ill take it back to Germany with me and drive it on the Autoban. But yes I love cars, imma chick imma freak i dont care. Always i am comfortable around good looking cars thats all i have to say. <3
i landed in page 315 and saw the thing about hearing colors. this would be an extreamily useful tool for blind ppl for like choosing matching colors and just simplify their life.
i landed on page 365 and i seen the LED light chess board. i like it because its something different from the old boring traditional brown and black board. and it looks like its made of glass
An Array Of Starts To Tell You The Time page 207
this is awesome shows the stars to tell you the time...if you love stars this is the thing for you
