Sip of Light by Doug Black
The Sip of Light takes your average book light and adds some stealth and ingenuity. Created by Korean designer Sung-kyu Nam, it's basically an illuminating straw outfitted with an internal battery and single LED light, which can be stabilized with any cup or glass. Currently in prototype stage, the lower portion of the straw casing contains the power supply, the head holds the light and the flexible neck is designed to turn the light on and off when bent.

Kyouei Design: Liquid Bookmarks and Lamps
by Laura Neilson For all the devoted bibliophiles who refuse to save their page by dog-earing their favorite pieces of literature, this startling bookmark instead applies a faux drip of liquid making for a cheeky alternative.

Pebble Carpet and Long Life Light
Generally, I resent being tricked by household objects masquerading as something they're not. That said, I'm hard pressed to get mad at this unassuming pile of stones. What appears to be solid rock is actually a cushioned wool rug. Each "stone" of the Pebble Carpet is hand-crafted of merino wool and attached with an internal cord. Designed by Ronel Jordaan in Johannesberg, South Africa,...

Fentix Cube
Combining the brain-teasing appeal of a Rubik's cube with a multi-touch interface, British electronic engineer Andrew Fentem's Fentix Cube might be the ultimate geek toy. The full-color screens are bright enough to see in daylight and the lights can be programmed to simulate any number of multi-dimensional puzzles, including Rubik's classic (watch the video to see it in action), games or ambient lighting themes. No...
