I admit I was a little tempted to get the iPhone 5, but only for a minute or so. I really enjoy the Samsung Galaxy commercials so I thought I would share one.
Leap Motion
I have been thinking a lot lately that I feel limited by my mouse and keyboard. I have been wanting to make something that breaks those barriers. When you think about it, we have had pretty much the same mice and keyboards for a long time now. Leap looks like it might be my answer. It looks pretty amazing, now I just need to convince myself that I need to pre-order it.

I just watched a great commercial by midttrafik.dk for their buses. It is entertaining and keeps your attention. I really enjoy it when people make something simple and typically boring and make it exciting even jokingly.
Coke and Google
Taking something old and giving it a new twist:
In 1971 Coke created a campaign bringing in youth from all over the world to sing a song about giving a coke to the world. With current technology, this is now possible. Teaming up with Google, they created vending machines that allow people to give a coke to the world.

Ted.com – Eddie Obeng: Smart failure for a fast-changing world
Eddie Obeng reminds us that Change is the only constant in business. Since the world is changing so fast, what was right before can be completely different now because of technology. I like the example he gives of home offices. When I put in a desk in my home and have computer, I think, wow, this is pretty sweet, I have my own little office. Eddie expands that to say its not just a little office, it is the headquarters of a World Wide organization. We have access to almost the whole globe. We can do so much just in our homes. This is one vision I have with Catalysters, to help the next generation realize their potential. If they wait until college, they may already be behind.
Ted.com – Pranav Mistry: The thrilling potential of SixthSense technology
For a long time I have felt limited by the constraints of computers. For a long time, the standard user interface is a keyboard and mouse for user input and a monitor and speakers for computer output.

Shimon Schocken and his colleagues created a course to help anyone learn how a computer works from the ground up!
Open-source Legal Documents
Docracy.com is starting a new project to help people with legal documents and communication with their clients. It is frustrating to start a project only to get to the end and realize you weren’t working on the right thing. Watch this YouTube video commercial to get a taste. A booth was set up in a park and people were asked to draw something to earn $5.
Many times new comers to the business world and even long time players get caught up in either not making contracts or using poorly written contracts. What better way to learn than by learning from the mistakes of others and share your mistakes so others don’t make them. I have been working on some of my contracts and so I did a search on Docracy.com for “Contracts” and found some great info. I find that sharing information is great. I wanted to share this little tip with you. Let me know if you find anything great.
I found this article on FastCoDesign.com.
