Cool Hunting
Clocky by Josh Rubin
Wake up, people! There’s finally a solution for those of us who just can’t get out of bed in the morning. The Clocky is an alarm clock on wheels. When the alarm clock goes off and the snooze button is pressed, Clocky, which is affectionately wrapped in brown shag carpet, will roll off the bedside table and onto the floor until it finds a suitable spot to hide and rest. When Clocky’s alarm sounds again, the sleeper must get out of bed and search for the clock, ensuring the person is awake before turning it off.
Thanks to Sara Blask for the contribution!

A new and clean design, Clocky is now more compact and the beefier new wheels make it more durable. Oh, and if you want Clocky to stay put, just disable the wheels and hit the snooze as much as you'd...

Sony Data Tiles
Developed by Jun Rekimoto in the Interaction Laboratory of Sony's Computer Science Laboratory, these Sony Data Tiles use tagged, transparent tiles to present dynamic information when placed on a flat panel equipped with sensors. The system makes use of both physical and graphic user interfaces and can either be used independently or in complex configurations. To get a better sense of how they work,...

SNIF Petworking
SNIF, or Social Networking in Fur, is a project from John Maeda's Physical Language Workshop at the MIT Media Lab. The idea is built on the age old notion of petworking-- meeting people through your pets. In their own words: "SNIF presents a hardware/software architecture that aims to capture pet social networks and other pet-related information as pets and their owners explore their communities."...

Hayat Benchenaa Radio Alarm Clock
Hayat Benchenaa, where have you been all my life?? Hayat has created a radio alarm clock that puts my four devices to shame. This is how it works. When the alrarm is set the Sfera dims and the music fades as you fall asleep. When it goes off in the morning, you have to reach up and tap it to activate the snooze. Then...
