a true makeover story

So, some of you may have noticed I am sporting a new haircut and nail polish this week. What's the deal, you ask? Virginia won an Oprah O party, and I was lucky to get invited. Yay!
The first time I've ever spent almost a whole day getting pampered, and it was sure an experience. I have to admit that the pedicure and haircut were my favorite parts. It was fun, and here is my shout-out to Oprah and G-spa. Ofcourse, it wouldn't have been possible without Virginia! Girls, you sure look good today!

LED-Toilet-Seat Galactika

So, you all know how nuts I am for LEDs! TadT just sent me a link four the LED-Toilet-Seat Galactika. LED Lights now for the bathroom. The toilet seat lights up when you lift the toilet lid. *DUDE!* It'll go nicely with my IKEA Trybble! :)

Just hopped to Don Norman's jnd.org / essays and found a large repository of tidbits that every product designer should read. I agree that Usability is not a luxury!

Finally, some Scientists win grant to study vibration. I think that this is definitely research that is needed, if we are ever to understand the boundary between sound and matter.
