The Powerplus Verio Wind-up MP3 Player » Coolest Gadgets

[Coolest Gadgets] In all honesty, this is not an attractive MP3 player. It’s bulky and awkward due to the wind-up handle. Then to top it off it’s a dull combination of gray and black. There’s absolutely nothing eye catching about it and if I saw it lying out I’d never realize it were an MP3 player. Which actually could work to your advantage as an anti-theft system. However, looks aside, the MP3 player quite obviously has one serious perk, it’s very earth friendly.

The Liquid Lamp adds spooky lighting » Coolest Gadgets

[Coolest Gadgets] It’s rare that you get to have a lamp that is just a little creepy. It manages to look chic, but it still looks like blood is oozing out of the lamp shade. It’s possible the pooling blood thing was not the intention of the designer, they might have been thinking of red paint. Especially since there is a version with a red lampshade and white liquid pouring out. Which is far less interesting than the blood red leaking out.
