Bloom Box claims to have designed a power generator that combines oxygen and natural gas, biogas or solar energy to create electricity. ”6O Minutes” interviewed the inventor and his financial backer, who are going extremely public after years of secrecy. Among the initial companies testing the hype — Google, eBay, and Walmart. Take a look at the video for yourself.

These spiral paper note pads called Bloc Notes are a real fresh approach to office supply design. The pear and apple shaped notepads make up in detail what they lack in flavor; the seeds, stems and flesh of the fruit make each very appealing to the eye… maybe not as functional as Post-Its, but definitely more fun!

This transparent drain system makes seeing the problem beneath your sink possible. Made of a transparent ABS, you can view the clog, manually churn the debris with a simple twist of the hand and avoid using unneeded, harsh chemicals.

In the case of lost jewelry, you can retrieve a lost ring or earring by visually locating it and then reversing the paddle with the hand crank to keep it from passing down the drain.

After 42 years of using the famous ketchup packet worldwide, Heinz Ketchup has turned a corner. The condiment giant has re-designed what was once seen as a type form, the ketchup packet, by condensing the contents of 3 ketchup packets into one Dip & Squeeze. 

Not to say the ketchup packet is gone forever, but the next time I get food to go, I an expecting to get one of these new ketchup containers. Either rip off the top and squeeze out the ketchup the traditional way, or peel away the thin plastic membrane and dip your food into the wide mouth opening — neat, simple… simply great!

Marketed as a vice-free alternative to keeping your projects in place as you work, Bench Cookies are a slip-free, non-marking, high friction support. 

You can sand, rout, cut and carve without worrying about marring up the surface of what you are working on.  (They look to be a great way to manage furniture on wood floor surfacing too).
