Arabic Language Buddy For The iPhone
The story
Arabic Language Buddy by Sakhr gives English speakers a live speech translator into Arabic. Users can freely speak (or type) English sentences into their iPhone, then view and hear the Arabic translation immediately.
Why this story inspired me
An application like this makes it possible for people to communicate with other people that speak a totally different language. It connects people.
What I hope sharing this story will lead to
I hope that through communication applications like these people will start to understand eachother’s views better.

First Else - The Built From Scratch Smartphone
The story
What happens if you throw away all of the smartphone interfaces that you know and start building a brand new one from scratch? You might end up making a smartphone like the First Else. Though it is launching in Q2 next year, this looks like a phone from the future.
Why this story inspired me
I think it takes guts to say: Let’s start all over and see where we will end up. They worked on this phone for 2 years. This shows dedication and a need to make something special. The result is an interface that might make other phone companies reconsider their interfaces.
What I hope sharing this story will lead to
I hope that the First Else will inspire other people/companies to challenge themselves to go beyond what’s already out there and really take their creations to a next level.

Dyson’s Bladeless Fan
Sir James Dyson asks questions about products that no one else seem to ask. Like does a fan need blades? Apparently not. Look at that thing. Amazing. (via not cot)

Apple iMac 2009
Apple’s newest version of the iMac is out. The new Apple mouse includes a multi-touch surface. That’s funny because I just saw a video of Microsoft Labs experimenting with touch and mice. I thought, can’t wait until that comes out. Then, like a week later, there it is, ready to buy. Though, not from Microsoft.

Record Your Entire Life
I was very excited to read Sensecam will be released soon. Sensecam is a Microsoft research lab project that’s basically a time lapse camera you wear around your neck. A simple idea but kinda amazing when you think of the potential: it could record your entire life.

Don’t let your cell phone see this. It will be jealous. Little World is an idea for handling contacts on your cell phone. It was conceived by a student at CIID in a 2 week course with Nokia.
