Koi Ice Cubes Soothe Your Soul as They Cool Your Beverage

I thought there was nothing more relaxing than watching Koi fish swim around in their pond, that was until I learned how soothing Koi can be when they’re melting into a puddle of liquid.

These Cold Fish Koi Ice Cube mold from Perpetual Kid allows you to freeze eight Koi-shaped ice shapes and let them float around in your beverage of choice until they melt into oblivion. It’s so much more convenient than owning your own pond.

Chalk Board Mug Improves Household Communication

The hustle and bustle of modern times leaves few extra seconds to communicate with the people you live with, most commonly, your family. Thanks to cellphones and e-mail, we can still remain in close contact, but there’s something about seeing the actual handwriting of a loved one that adds a dose of personality into a message.

The Chalk Board Mug allows anyone in your home or work place to write a tiny message in chalk right on your coffee vessel. There are only two downfalls. One, chalk marks left on the writer’s fingers. Two, having to clean a chalk eraser like when you got in trouble in grade school. That sucked so bad.

Bottle Cap Craze

Just in time for the 2008 Green Design Festival in Athens, Greece comes a fresh look from Athanassios Babalis. Keeping it eco-tech, Athanassios created a shopping bag and a stool from recycled bottle caps. Think it was an easy task? Oh my friend, you are quite mistaken.

Babalis collected the caps from his workmates and an extended network of friends using 370 to make the bag and 1250 for the stool.

That’s a shitload of bottle caps but it probably wasn’t too hard acquiring them. Unlike Pringles, caps aren’t incredibly hard to design things with. Hit the link below to see a diagram that explains the entire process.

Club-Mate: The Last HOPE’s Drink Of Choice

Hackers are a different breed of humans. They’re not into vanilla cola or Red Bull energy drinks. They stay away from the mainstream bullshit and rarely leave their router-filled lairs. This is why a drink like Club-Mate (pronounced “Klub Mah-Tay”) is not only the drink of choice here at the Last HOPE Conference, but it’s also a big hit with the hacker crowd in Germany.

We bought one for four bucks, which is a reasonable price considering the size of this thing, but after trying it, we realized we prefer beer. And while the bottle claims it’s an acquired taste with “You get used to it!” printed on the label, we still prefer beer more! Beer is flavorful and makes all the ugly chicks look gorgeous. All that Club-Mate does is pump your body full of caffeine and make you twitch while you hunch over a computer. Like I said, great for hackers.

Ghost Goblet Is Spooktacular!

The Ghost Goblet is plain cool. Pouring any beverage in the glass’ hallowed out form results in the appearance of a phantom goblet floating in the middle of the glass. It must be magic! That, or it’s 100% hand blown glass. Perhaps both.

The Six Gallon Beverage Dispenser

Apparently, putting a faucet in a work bucket is carte blanche to call it a beverage dispenser. However, we’ll let this contraption slide only because it holds six gallons of beer. The Six Gallon Beverage Dispenser costs $35 and is basically just a bucket from The Home Depot with a faucet shoved in it. There’s also labels you can slap on that say things like “Punch” and “Iced Tea.” Yeah, very exciting labels are indeed included.

Where’s the beer label at?
