This ballpoint pen digitally records handwritten notes


The Orée Stylograph is ballpoint pen that can digitally record and store notes and sketches made in a companion notepad. It is made of real copper, and uses fine ballpoint cartridges which can be refilled. It has a high-speed micro camera that tracks pen strokes, while an accelerometer detects its movement and angle.

The content stored inside the Stylograph can be transferred to both iOS and Android devices with bluetooth pairing. According to Orée, the pen can be used for up to 42 hours, and it can be recharged via micro USB. You can't buy this yet, and its selling price has not been unveiled. However it will be available for pre-order online and at selected retailers later in September.

This is what I want for my birthday. If there's someone out there generous enough, share!

It's like an  Inception movie directed by mother nature, and frankly, I'm pretty sure she's just messing with us at this point.

Biking to School with Kids

I love biking to school with my children. It's a great way to start the day, and it's a lot of fun. Both of them have their own bicycles, meaning I'm basically herding two slightly erratic cyclists. My kids' two-wheelers are quite new and pretty decent. Mine is more like a rusty ten-speeder with a penchant for chain slippage. It's a cheap, rickety bike from China but it's my vehicle of choice for running errands, and honestly, it gets the job done. My youngest is still working on his steering. My eldest, on the other hand, is all about speed. She thinks she's in the Tour de France, so I'm constantly shouting, "Slow down!" Of course there are moments of near disaster. But you know what? Despite the mayhem, there's something undeniably satisfying about arriving at our destination, slightly out of breath, on our bikes. There are also moments of pure, unadulterated joy – like when we are pedaling along the street, the sun on our faces, the wind...
