When people name a certain item or product, they often take into consideration what the thing is or what it’s for. Take the Chuckimal, for example. It’s a strange name to call a plush toy, but I reckon it got its name from the fact that it’s an animal plush toy that’s meant to be [...]

The future of memos is here, care of the Play Video Memo Pad. Instead of scribbling out a quick note to tell your flatmates or family where you’ll be going or what kind of favor you need from them, you can now record a short video message that they can play back with the push [...]

My mom was a huge nagger. She’d get on my case for forgetting to turn the lights off, or for not returning the glass/bottle/remote/whatever to its proper place (even while I was still using it, mind you.) I still love her all the same, but sometimes I really want to take a break from all [...]

Sometimes the old way of doing things is still the best way. Take postcards for example. I prefer physical postcards compared to e-cards any time. But if you’re up to it, then another twist to this conventional way of getting a short message across the world is through the DIY Wooden Postcard. I think its [...]

You don’t need to send your messages in bottles anymore. While the thought is romantic, it’s also not practical. You can’t wait for years and years for the message to get to you (via some kind stranger who happens to find it washed up on a beach on the other side of the world.) Instead, [...]

Somebody has clearly beaten me to the punch with this million-dollar idea. Instead of getting into theatrics with angry drivers, you can simply post them a nice message using this LED Car Message Display. Whenever the subject of bullies comes up, we tend to think of the ones at school. But there’s also another variety of kid-turned-grown-up bullies that [...]

If you’ve got something to say but just can’t seem to open your mouth and choke the words out, then you might need something like the LED Shirt with Time and Programmable Message Display to help you out.

“Sending out an SOS to the world..” That old song by The Police immediately popped into my head when I saw the Message in a Bottle. Women find stories of men who used such methods to send out their love and communicate to their other half while they were at sea incredibly romantic; so why [...]

We’ve seen our share of geeky coffee mugs around here, like the Wind Up Coffee Mug for instance, but the Postcup makes your mug do double duty as a drinking mug and a postcard in one.

This easy-to-use little device, designed to look like a shamrock, allows you to save important messages as video clips with sound instead of handwritten notes.

This photo frame won’t hold you favorite digital photographs, but it allows you to record short messages and have them played back to you by touching the glass.

This set of 20 different LEDs each has a battery and a magnet attached. Pull the tab to activate, then place them on any magnet surface. They stick and glow brightly to let everyone know you were there, like a “Kilroy was here” message of the 21st century.
