A delightful device – the Baker Tweet – brought into existence by the clever Wallaces over at Poke.

The problem it solves? Letting the followers of your muffins know when fresh ones are ready. All without needing to dust off your hands to approach a computer. Turn a nob, press a button.

This video is a fine example of “explaining by showing.” No words needed. Just a pleasant jazz guitar. Nice.

IPhone 16 sept 2009

Found via LifeHacker. I need to check out this site – if there are more videos like this, I am a new fan.

I have been enjoying Layers and Brushes for the iPhone, and one of the things I have been working towards is a “deck” of wallpaper images that I can use on my iPhone. I like a couple of them so far, enough to keep working on new ones.

If you like, feel free to download and use them – consistent with the Creative Commons licensing of course.

The other fingerpainting app for the iPhone is called layers. If you are familiar with how layers work in Photoshop then you can imagine how it would be a help for working in the electronic fingerpainting media.

Then there is Jackson Pollock app, a kind of pseudo random splatter and drip painting tool.

Here’s something I did combining them.
