FiftyThree launches $50 Pencil Bluetooth stylus for its sketching app (video)
Posted in: Today's ChiliRemember when we spotted that FiftyThree, makers of the iPad sketching app Paper, was working on a stylus? Now it’s time for Paper to meet Pencil. Looking like an enormous marker pencil, the unit comes in a choice of sustainable hardwood or brushed aluminum, jam-packed with technology inside. Innovations include palm rejection, an eraser-end to remove your digital mistakes and a rechargeable battery that promises a month of life with normal use. Pairing to your iPad over Bluetooth, you’ll also get access to various paid-for tools like Outline, Mixer and Sketch for free. Of course, the unit will set you back $50, but that’s a small price to pay to be top of the life drawing class.

The more crowded the streets get, the harder it is to find a decent parking space. If you’ve got an extra parking spot, then you’re in a position that’s envied by most who own a car.
So why not make a few extra bucks off of it and help others find a spot at the same time? That’s something you can do with Park Circa.
It’s an app that lets people find and rent out parking spaces. It’s simple enough to use. If you need a parking spot, enter the location where you’d like to park and search through available spaces that have been listed. If you have an extra spot, list it on the database as being available for rent.
Park Circa is compatible with Android, iOS and Windows Phone devices. You can download the app here.
