Apple’s spaceship-like Cupertino campus will be finished in 2016. But with four more years to go, Apple is setting up temporary offices within the city for its thousands of workers. According to Mercury News, Apple is now planning to erect two campuses on the north side of Stevens Creek Boulevard in Santa Clara. The area, which is just a walking distance from the Cupertino city limits, will reportedly host 1,200 workers.

Apple is said to have leased the 96,000 square-foot space from developer Peery Arrillaga. Peery Arrillaga will be building two six-floor building campuses and the first six-story building is expected to be completed in 2014. The second one has yet to be detailed further. These temporary offices should keep Apple’s operations moving. When the circular spaceship-like giant Campus finishes in 2016, over 14,000 employees will be working there.

I’ve gotten so used to Tokyoflash having a corner on the cool digital watch market, that I’m always pleasantly surprised when another company comes along with a nifty LCD watch. Up until now, the guys over at Ziiiro have focused on analog designs (and putting too many ‘i’s in the name of their company.) Now, they’ve released a slick digital watch that can keep up with the best of what Japan has to offer.

The new Ziiiro Saturn tells time using a set of concentric circles. The 12 longer segments on the outer ring indicate hours, while the 60 smaller slivers on the inner ring tell minutes. The watch uses LCD tech for its display and offers a cool electroluminescent backlight for nighttime viewing as well.

The Saturn is available in black, gunmetal or chrome finishes, all made from stainless steel. You can pre-order the Saturn now over at Watchismo for $229.99(USD), and they expect to ship the watches this December.

Tablet cases are everywher these days.  Then again tablets have become a mainstay. They are so common they become an extension of ourselves. So the quest becomes how do you make your device match your personality. Unique design and features are key. And a US based company seems to have found a perfect solution to making a statement with your tablet case.

Treegloo, a design group making cases for nexus 7, iPad Mini and iPad (gen 2-4), caters to the desire for individuals and corporations to let their tablet case reflect them with sort of a troika of uniqueness. First of all they take their inspiration from architecture – sleek and and artistic yet functional to protect your pad. Sure they have the standard built-in stand and access to buttons/connections but with a much more stylish look. A second unique feature is that Treegloo only produces their cases with FSC Certified and eco-friendly materials.  Yep, everything from the adhesives to shipping materials. The third factor making Treegloo product stand out is the fact that cases can be customized. Finishes, cover colors and latches can all be made to suit you because they are all hand made.  Choose from 8 wooden frame finishes, 10 cover colors, 4 latch types, 2 liner types and over 20 liner colors or prints.  Two styles are available too – the classic design or the slimmer Streamliner. You can design your own case at Treegloo.com  for as little as $29.95 for nexus 7 and $34.95 for iPad mini. Note that their production queue for iPad is already full for the holiday season – but you can still build one for later delivery. In a world where we all strive to be unique – let your tablet friend help express your personality in an eco-friendly and stylish case!

There are a lot of hobbyists out there that enjoy collecting various action figurines, but sometimes it can be fun to create your own and make them however you want. Start-up company Pixle will soon be releasing a new app called Foldify that will let you create and print out 3D paper figures right from your iPad.

From the video, the app looks to be extremely intuitive, and it lets you choose from tons of different 3D shapes. From there, you can then add color, as well as different types of eyes, noses, and mouths to create a unique face on your figurine. Then once you’re done, you can print out the layout via AirPrint and then fold together your creation.

One of the coolest aspects of the app is the preview pane, which lets you see what your 3D paper figurine looks like before you even print it out and put it together. It updates in real time and even lets you rotate it to get a 360-degree view of the figurine, that way you can correct any mistakes or improve on some areas before you print out the final product.

The app will be compatible with all iPad versions except the first-generation iPad (not enough memory), and we’re not sure if it’ll be available for the iPhone and iPod Touch or not, but either way, it looks like the type of app that would be way better on an iPad anyway. The company hasn’t released any more details on the app other than the video, but you can submit your email address to let them notify you when the app gets released.

Could “Girl Meets World” mean the return of bad boy Shawn Hunter? It doesn’t seem likely.

“I am extremely happy for Ben and Danielle to be able to continue the story,” Rider Strong, who played Shawn for seven years, wrote on his website. “At this point, I have no official involvement in ‘Girl Meets World.’ There might be a chance to see some of the BMW cast in a guest spot, and I think it would be nice to find out where our characters have been all these years.”

“Girl Meet World,” a spinoff of the ’90s-era beloved TV show “Boy Meets World,” will center on Cory (Ben Savage) and Topanga’s (Danielle Fishel) 13-year-old daughter Riley, with Cory stepping into the role of a high school history teacher.
