Pocket Palette by Josh Rubin
Ever go to the paint store and notice people who bring in random, or worse, large articles from their homes to color match? Ever get lost in all those little paint chip samples you can take with you to figure out which color is best?
Enter the Benjamin Moore Pocket Palette device. It's an electronic palette search instrument that will match any sample to the closest Benjamin Moore color. The price, $299, might be a little steep for people outside the trade, but think of the headaches averted. Coming this Fall.
Thanks, Evan!

Last night I had a chance to experience Leo's latest, Sensacell, developed...

Hot Choz
French designer David L'Hôte seems to be just as fed up with wires as I am. Centfils (translating to something like 100 wires) is a series of design concepts that address the increasingly problematic proliferation of electrical wires. From left to right: Octave goes under the desk for all those computer peripherals, Odile on top of the desk for the mobile devices and Oscar...

Liquid Image Camera Goggles
Daydreams of summer aquatic fun reminded us of Liquid Image's Underwater Digital Camera Masks, goggles with built-in video and photo capabilities. Bringing underwater photography to a new level of convenience, buttons on top easily control the camera and crosshairs printed into the glass replaces the need for a display. Goggles come in three designs, differing in depth limitations and video quality. The Swim Video...
