The hottest-selling tablets aren’t likely to be iPads or Galaxy Tabs these days — if anything, they’re the cut-rate slabs you see in the back of the drug store. Strategy Analytics estimates that shipments of generic “white box” tablets (which typica…
It may sound like the fictional government department that Patricia Arquette works for in CSI: Cyber, but that’s not what the Internet Security Task Force is for. In fact, the ITSF is a group of independent film companies that have banded together to…
For most of us, ultra-realistic racing games like Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport are as close as we’ll ever get to driving the world’s most luxurious motors. We’ve drooled over Rimac Automobili’s Concept_One electric hypercar for years, but given …

The Knights of the Round Table Watch is so awesome you’ll swear that Merlin created it using dragon’s breath. It was made by watchmaker Roger Dubuis. I guess it beats a Lady of the Lake watch, because this one isn’t wet all of the time, while it tries to get you to take a sword every hour on the hour.
It is self-winding and features the twelve intricately crafted bronze knights of the round table with their swords drawn to mark the hours. This watch would be useless for Merlin, since he ages backwards, but for you and me, it’s a sweet piece of wrist candy. Or it would be if any of us could afford it.
You probably have to go on a quest to find the Holy Grail before you can get one.

Sometimes you just need something in your day that breaks up the monotony and offers some unexpected play to your otherwise serious life. That’s exactly what the Bench Go Round is all about. It promotes child-like playfulness and helps connect strangers.
People just can’t help it. Think about how two people can sit quietly on a normal bench without even acknowledging each other. That’s just not possible on a bench that is also a merry-go-round. This innovation is helping to break people’s barriers.
This design was George Zisiadis’ contribution to the Market Street Prototyping Festival last month in San Francisco: A public exhibition of new products and architectural ideas. They should completely replace public benches with this design. It might make cities nicer places, by making the people a little more light-hearted.
