Sold iPhone App

Normally, product copy is pretty boring stuff aimed at getting the facts out as fast as possible. It's about numbers, not feelings. The Sold iPhone App sells itself pretty well when it comes to describing its function--putting the burden of selling your "luxury" shit for some extra rent money. "I don't have time for ... continue reading

Straight Flush

The Social Network and 21 are two completely different movies, about two completely different things that both turned out, in our opinion, pretty good. Underneath the different plot mechanics (cards and social networks) and stars, though, you'll find a vaguely similar story about empire building. Turns out the reason ... continue reading

Mead Making Kit

TSOVET SVT-CN38

The giant TSOVET timing gauges built like tanks are phenomenal. They're huge statement pieces that almost double as a trip to the gym for your off hand. That's great for most situations, but sometimes the only statement worth making is a more minimal one. The SVT-CN38 is the watch for just such an occasion. It's still ... continue reading

Yeah Yeah Yeahs “Mosquito”

JR iPad App

What originally started as a teenager painting graffiti in Paris evolved into an artist with an unconfirmed identity claiming the world as his gallery. As important as it is to see the TED award winning artist's work in person, it's not exactly everywhere... yet. If you can't make it to one of the few installations ... continue reading

Bauhaus Titanium Carabiners

The carabiner has been around forever. At one point it was actually used for climbing, but that purpose has all but been forgotten ever since it was appropriated by men everywhere for use as the missing link between keys and belt loops. We still don't quite understand how having a wallet in your back pocket and sitting ... continue reading
