This amazing bike concept is part exercise machine, part electric scooter, and will even help to pay your fare while providing a seat for the bus ride home. Designed by Mårten Wållgren, Il Choi, David Seesing, and Miika Hekkinen, it's the centerpiece of a car free concept for central London called London Garden, and winner of the Seymour Powell award in a contest called Future City Mobility.

As soon as you open a gallon of milk, it starts to spoil. It's the air that starts working on it, encouraging all those creepy crawlies to start growing and eating away at the organic material. Pour your milk into this shrinking jug called "Fresh," and it'll keep the amount of air in contact with the milk at a bare minimum, because the container collapses along with the amount of milk remaining.
Pricing for networked media players is plummeting precipitously, and this Mediagate MG-M2TV just raised the bar on the lowest common denominator. What's the big deal? Well, this little box plays just about every video and audio format, including AVI, WMV9, MKV (pirates love this one), Xvid, and H.264, and you can plunk it down in your living room for $110.
For a few years now the idea of wireless power has been a shining light in the lives of gadgeteers, whose homes resemble cable repositories. At the TED Global 2009 conference this week, it got one step closer. Eric Giler, chief executive of Witricity unveiled the concept which is based on an idea by MIT's Marin Soljacic and exploits the resonance of low frequency electromagnetic waves.
You may never have seen anything quite like the BeoTime alarm clock, but it definitely exudes the hyperstylized tendencies of its creator, Bang & Olufsen. The closest thing the clock resembles is a flute or piccolo, with three tiny square displays mounted on an aluminum tube, showing the time, alarm time and audio source.

Anyone looking forward to Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds next month might enjoy Victor Konovalov's take on an entryphone. Named after one-eyed Russian general Mikhail Kutuzov and seminal Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh the intercom has a camera that looks like a bloody eye which you can set to two modes: Frak Orf (red); and Come On In! (green).

Hitachi learned a thing or two when it bought drive manufacturer Fabrik, maker of SimpleTech and G-Technology drives. Just look at this spiffy SimpleTOUGH drive, available in 500GB, 320GB and 250GB capacities for $150, $120, and $100 respectively. No, that's not carbon fiber, but it looks a lot like it, and this sucker is tough as nails, able to survive a drop from 9 feet, and also sporting an attached USB connector for extra convenience. We like.

Don't know about you, but most people I know have one corner of their desk that is an embarrassing jumble of cables, wall-warts, plugs, electronics, adapters and who knows what else. Or worse, when you need to charge something up, you have to spend an hour rooting through a junk drawer trying to find the right charger.
There's nothing quite like a long soothing shower to calm your frazzled nerves following a hectic day. The cascading warm water creates a wonderful tactile sensation, even though in most bathrooms there's little else to stimulate your other senses.

What you see there is a cross-section of an "optoelectronic" fiber. It's a light-sensing strand MIT is developing that it says could capture an image. Led by Associate Professor Yoel Fink of MIT's Department of Materials Science and Engineering, the research is still far from yielding any real-world applications, but the project just hit a milestone, namely using the fabric to take a rough snap of a smiley face.

This Light Pillow from Linus Kutavicius isn't the first glowing pillow we've ever seen, but it's about the only one you can actually own. The light source (presumably LED) is said to be contained in powder-coated metal frame, which doesn't sound very comfortable, but at least there's a washable cotton cover.
