Social Media Watch: Time to Be Social

social-media-watch

I’m pretty sure the consensus is that most people don’t need another reminder to use social media sites. They already take up so much of our time. But how could you possibly resist this Social Media Watch, despite the encouragement it provides for procrastinating more important projects.

Featuring all of the major networks, including Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and so on. Each of the 12 digits have been replaced with the logos of your favorite networking sites. You can grab yours for about $18.

Calendar Clock Not Nearly As Fun As It Sounds

calendarclock

Are you ready for a lifetime of boredom?! Rather than sitting and staring at a traditional clock, you know, with its flashy “seconds” and “minutes,” how about giving the Calendar Clock a try?

The clock measures days, months and hours rather than minutes and seconds, so you might have to strain a bit to notice any movement. Sounds like a blast. Totally not a waste of time, at all. If by some inconceivable (you keep saying that word. I don’t think it means what you think it means.) chance that you become bored with the Calendar Clock, give this clock a try.

Average Day Wristwatch Doesn’t Care Much For Numbers

averageday

Are you more of a “take action” sort of person, rather than a tight-scheduled numbers guy? The Average Day Watch, designed by Crispin Jones, is crafted for people just like you, who just don’t find much need for numbers in their life. Replacing the traditional digits are an assortment of daily routines. Just after noon? Then you know it’s time to eat! If your stomach hasn’t already been telling you that anyway, then the Average Day Watch sure will.

From washing, to working, to your allotted time set aside for your sad excuse of a social life, it’s all here. Aptly set on a squiggly and colorful timeline-like interface, the outer ring of events corresponds to actions taken in the AM. The inner band relates your daily PM activities. Time ain’t nothing but a number. The Average Day Watch knows what’s really important. You can grab your own for $145.

DIY Embroidered Wristwatch

What time is it? You don’t know? Sir, by all accounts, I noticed the wristwatch on you possess. Surely it can give a man something as simple as the time of day. It can’t? Why not? Ahh, yes! True craftsmanship! Who would even think to embroider a watch? It’s so absurd, it makes perfect sense!

CCTV Decals For The Commode

Etsy always has the coolest shit on the Internet. Made by some merry prankster, these CCTV decals are designed to keep an eye on you while you pull a number two. In fact, these stickers are so awesome, they’ve sold out completely on Etsy. I’m sure more will come but for now, you’ll have to keep a close eye on things.

Nintendo To Launch Wii Video Service In ‘09

Dentsu Inc, Japan’s largest advertising agency, is aiding Nintendo in launching a video distribution service on Nintendo’s home console, the Wii. The two companies plan to offer programs exclusive to the service, allowing old people and little kids to get down with some cartoons and other entertainment content.

However, nothing in this world is free (except Wii Sports) and viewers will need to pay to see some of the content the video service provides, while others will be offered free of charge so long as they can put up with some unsightly ads. Dentsu and Nintendo will start offering this new video service early next year, while American Wii owners are left in the dark.

Tokyo Flash’s 10 Pack Abdominal Watch

Yet another watch from Tokyo Flash that requires a mathematical formula just to tell time. This is no joke. Telling time on a watch modeled after my bitchin’ 10 pack of abs shouldn’t be a problem so long as you remember what each color of the transitioning LEDs represents.

Named the Kisai Tenmetsu, this Tokyo Flash watch joins the club of mold breaking designs. Made of aluminum and finished with a soft alumite coating, this is one watch that will have strangers asking you for the time. It’s a damn shame you won’t have a response. The Kisai Tenmetsu is available in silver or black for $257.

Dead Simple: Hiranao Tsuboi LED Watch

Looking for a no-nonsense wristwatch that tells time and sets you apart from the Tag Pack? Look no further than this watch from Japanese designer Hiranao Tsuboi. It tells time with orange LEDs in four quadrants and nothing more. Too bad I waited until the end of this post to inform you that it’s a non-production concept.

I know. It sucks.

An iPod Replacement Over The Horizon?

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has recently admitted that the iPod’s popularity is dwindling. It’s the nature of the beast. Just like the Sony Walkman, at first, everyone wants one. This leads to successful sales and then, they end up on display everywhere at a discounted price, which leads to no one purchasing them. The question on everyone’s mind is: what’s next for Apple?

The higher-ups at Apple leaked just a tidbit of what to possibly expect in the future. Enter the iWatch, a possible investment and future gadget from Apple that will probably act like a cellphone and MP3 player. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what really is up Apple’s sleeve for next year.

The Watch That’s Sure To Get You Some Octopussy

There’s a million watches out there that’ll make you look like James Bond but few of them feature cellphone functionality. With this phone, you’re getting all the luxuries of a decked out cellphone jam-packed in the comfort of a watch. If you’re not loving the wrist action, this watch can also be worn around the neck, though that’s not very Bond-like.

With 1GB of internal memory, full Bluetooth support, a digital video and audio recorder, organizer, multi-function calculator, alarm clock and pretty much everything else offered in a standard cell phone is included with this watch for $141.88. Everything that is, except for the ladies. When you’re Bond, you’ve got to earn ‘em.
