Created by Carlos Ulloa Matesanz, Ralph Hauwert, and John Grden. Papervision3D is a open-source 3D engine for flash, that allows developers to change the position, size and rotation of a sprite on its X, Y and Z coordinates.
The results and possibilities for this technology are truly amazing, a website is no-longer a flat canvas but can be transformed in to a rich 3d environment. Recent updates to the engine allows developers to uses triangle tessellation to distort textures and render complex objects in real 3D.
The most exciting area to Papervision3D is the ability to embed video into a 3D environment. Could this open-source technology transform the way established traditional medias allow consumers to view their content. Combing Papervision3D and a 360 degree camera can already achieve amazing immersive video allowing us to take control of the camera and become a character in the environment.

There is something mezmerizing about TV Shopping. I don’t know if it’s the cheesiness of the hosts and demos or the fact that they manage to make indispensable any piece of junk with the help of charts and testimonials. It’s probably a combination of both that makes those shows so sticky that I now have in my kitchen an Aerogarden…
Now imagine a TV Shopping channel for hipster-wannabes. Online. That’s what the guys at droga5 are experimenting with HoneyShed. A bunch of very good-looking hosts do their best to make you laugh while selling some American Apparel underwear, DVDs, cosmetics…
HoneyShed is not an e-commerce website. They are more of an irreverent entertainment hub linking to sites where you can actually purchase the product featured, HoneyShed receiving a cut of the revenue.
The viewers (or shall I say shopper?) can watch the live stream or directly go to the archives sorted by channels (new this week, beauty, tech&toys, fun shit…), add items to their stash, chat live with other viewers, buy the music played in the show…
I hate to say it, but it is actually fun and addictive, the curated products rule, and, productivity-alert, you have an option to launch the show in a mini-player that will sit in a small corner of your screen, so that you’re always one-click away from a $19.99 Black&Decker table-vacuum. I know. But I’ll try to expense it. It’s for research after all!

Have you met my rabbit? It can tell me when I have new emails, read them out lout, play internet radios, etc. I thought that was cool.
Then I met Chumby. A true 21st century alarm clock, so much better than the previous one: It is completely open source, connects to my home network, has a wide touch screen and not only will it display weather forecasts, flickr pictures, my facebook status, and give me a few chuck norris facts; I can also customize it with my own widgets. All I need, is a little flash lite knowledge to write my own widgets.
Those new devices are slowly erasing the line between “being connected” and “being offline”. What took a computer yesterday, can now be done with an alarm clock and tomorrow with a fridge or a table.
Now I wonder, what smart services do we expect in the 5 minutes between alarm ringing and actually leaving bed?

Part of Orange Unlimited campaign, a web-page that never seems to end, an addictive crazy little world of never ending doodles, mini-games and interactive animations including breakdancing monkeys, musical chickens and of course where would you be without a guitar playing pot-plant! Building upon the seemingly never ending scrolling page of endless wacky character the site communicates the campaign message of limitless free text messages, by encouraging us to follow the never ending rainbow of fun found in its online, print and television campaigns.
Daft Punk decided to promote their new live album ”Alive” with an embeddable widget containing a lot of information regarding the band, the tracks, as well as a photo gallery. This not only is an example of a cheap way to promote a product on the Web as well as it’s still proof that the music industry is still innovating in their promotion efforts.

The members of the MLA lose sleep over it, kids could get *RSI* doing it, and all your english are belong to us. Is the written language dying? or transforming? What is our destiny? Does Leet Speak define us as we morph into super human beings who suffer from a collective attention deficit disorder that spawned from a virus that originally inhabited the motherboards of our Windows 95 boxes and has now sought refuge in human tissue?
Remember when all there was to fear was Shorthand? It was either invented by aliens or monks who had never typed a conversation on a device intended to speak into or for that matter talked shit to another player on World of Warcraft.
When the language apocalypse comes, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
WOW factor 10 – get the glass
Fantastic website – infact its more than a website – its an experience – well designed, well presented, great ideas behind it – its one of those website that come around now and again that remind you why you work in all things digital!

They are called “smart tables” and are new tools likely to improve creativity and brainstorming.
It’s relatively simple. Put together a big glass surface, a projector, a digital camera, touchscreen software and something unexpected will happen: 3D objects can be animated and can visually interact with digital images like never seen before. Can’t wait to put my hands on this nifty device…

Getting back from the summer holidays, Italians got a nasty surprise: the price of a cup of coffee had climbed from 80 cents to one euro! But the Japanese seem to have found an inventive solution to overpriced coffee…
It’s fairly well known that vending machines are an essential part of Japanese culture. The country’s low rates of vandalism and graffiti-writing, high population density and shopping 24/7 have put Japan at the top of the list in terms of number of vending machines per capita: 1 every 23 people.
Last spring, a joint venture between Apex, the second largest operator in the dispensers’ market, and Willb, a Japanese advertising agency, gave birth to a new concept in vending machines, in which drinks are distributed almost for free.
Under the name of “MediCafe“, machines play an advert video for around 30 seconds (exactly the time the machine needs to fill the cup of coffee) on the 19-inch LCD display built into them. Consumers choose their drink by activating a touch screen and this feature provides additional opportunities to develop creative interactive ads.
These experimental vending machines have been placed in universities, hospitals and companies and are filled not only with warm and soft drinks but also with targeted advertisements that have allowed a drop in price to almost to zero yen. It looks like the first two-month trial has been successful enough to evolve to the next (more interactive) stage.
