So, we all know that one of the best (and cutest) games on mobile devices these days is Rovio's Angry Birds. Not only is the game ever-expanding, they make kick-ass seasonal versions (did you SEE the valentine's day edition? Cupid piggies!!)... http://www.los-list.com/blog/kawaii-angry-birds-plushes/feed/ 0 http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-bluelounge/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-bluelounge/#comments Thu, 03 Feb 2011 20:23:59 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=10931

As a design geek living with a music geek, I spend my days lost in an endless gaggle of wires: nests of audio-cables, tangled mouse-cords and — what the heck does this attach to!? Three cheers, then, for Pasadena-based design firm Bluelounge, who are single-handedly cutting through the technological gordian knot with a range of savvy clutter solutions... http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-bluelounge/feed/ 16 http://www.los-list.com/blog/big-screen-brooklyn-space-program/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/big-screen-brooklyn-space-program/#comments Thu, 16 Dec 2010 20:13:57 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=10476

Aside from being visually breathtaking (and goosebump-inducing), this film pretty much showcases some of the best things in life: science, nature, education, experimentation, and... good times with the fam! The film documents the build, release, and recovery of a video- and iPhone-rigged weather balloon that, in the span of a wee 70 minutes, managed to climb nearly 100,000 feet (hitting the upper stratosphere) before bursting and frantically dancing its way back to earth — landing in a tree a mere 30 miles from the launch site! http://www.los-list.com/blog/big-screen-brooklyn-space-program/feed/ 13 http://www.los-list.com/blog/tiktok-lunatik/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/tiktok-lunatik/#comments Fri, 26 Nov 2010 21:29:04 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=10126

We're big into the innovative projects happening at Kickstarter. It's truly a blast pledging for our favorite ideas and seeing them come to life. The TikTok and LunaTik >iPod Nano watch kits by MINIMAL have got to be the coolest gadgets of the year — certainly our favorite Kickstarter product to date... http://www.los-list.com/blog/tiktok-lunatik/feed/ 4 http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-deego-toys/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-deego-toys/#comments Tue, 09 Nov 2010 03:20:58 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=9855

In the wake of yesterday's Lo's List computer crash of 2010, it seems appropriate to write a quick entry about Deego Toys' adorable tools for backing up your data. Any computer user's relationship with their hard drives is that of love and hate: yet another thing to sort, organize, care for and, equally, another thing that saves your tail (and files) time and again when faced with an iMac meltdown. http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-deego-toys/feed/ 0 http://www.los-list.com/blog/papercuts-moleskine-pac-man/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/papercuts-moleskine-pac-man/#comments Thu, 21 Oct 2010 23:41:06 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=9433

It was at the local ice skating rink where I first battled Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde. I would feed the game's coin slot with a bottomless pocket of quarters while destroying my pearly whites with Mike and Ikes and Hot Tamales. http://www.los-list.com/blog/papercuts-moleskine-pac-man/feed/ 3 http://www.los-list.com/blog/fashion-scout-makr-carry-goods/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/fashion-scout-makr-carry-goods/#comments Mon, 04 Oct 2010 22:45:50 +0000 Rebecca Prusinowski http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=8776

"Artisanal" is a word that's generously tossed around these days, but the craftsmen at Makr Carry Goods truly abide by the philosophy. Their bags and small leather goods are designed and crafted from start to finish by the Makr team – sketched, stained, laser etched, cut, stitched, buffed, waxed and detailed. No flashy logos or flamboyant shapes. No florid embellishments. Their signature is strong, understated design with a practical point of view. http://www.los-list.com/blog/fashion-scout-makr-carry-goods/feed/ 223 http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-focal-point-computer/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-focal-point-computer/#comments Thu, 16 Sep 2010 21:17:15 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=8402

Not that you should be tired of your fancy new iPhone 4G but, if you do have the patience of a newt and your device has lost its luster these lovely Scandinavian hard shells (with matching wallpaper and nifty stand/headphone wrap) from Focal Point Computers might just do the trick... http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-focal-point-computer/feed/ 19 http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-twelve-south-ipad-compass/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-twelve-south-ipad-compass/#comments Fri, 27 Aug 2010 15:25:48 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=7976

We went downright gaga for Twelve South's Macbook BookBook cover and were checking the site for the design studio's iPad version the other day when we came across this uber-gadget: the sleek, silicone-coated steel collapsible Compass iPad stand... http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-twelve-south-ipad-compass/feed/ 17 http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-angry-birds/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-angry-birds/#comments Sat, 19 Jun 2010 19:47:11 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=6407

Angry Birds by Rovio is available for your iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Verizon Droid, Blackberry & more!

Although I try to delegate most of my iPadding to productive tinkering like to-do lists (Taksa), concept sketches (Adobe Ideas), blogging (WordPress), proposals (Pages), and keeping up with the times (NPR, BBC News, TIME Magazine, Paris Match...), it's hard to resist the smattering of impeccably designed gaming apps available on my new favorite gadget... http://www.los-list.com/blog/geekology-angry-birds/feed/ 1255
