I Break The News

Hey everyone,  I just came back from my short family trip to the baltic sea and I brought some news with me! While we were sitting on the beach (me trying hard to get a tan but I got more like a sunburn  🏖️ ) we saw a guy on a Fliteboard passing us by in the distance.. We were like: What is this thing?! So once I got back to my laptop, I googled flying surf board or something like that and there it was, listed on google shopping: The Fliteboard !   This is the Fliteboard available in 3 different colors A pricey gadget, probably for when you already have everything else. So I went on the website and found out it was invented by Australians a few years ago already and get this, on the website I also found the following quote: 'Described by Shopify founder Tobias Lütke as 'the most magical gadget on the planet' , the boards sell for $15,950 in Australia.' So some people already know about this board for a while. I know about it just now! 🌊 Matthe...

Oh can you hear it.. it's the FUTURE - it is CALLING! :) Any long waiting time for your waiter is now up! Thanks to this new Tab App , we are not just at the point, where we can easily scan our items at the impersonal supermarket self-checkout , we evolved even one step further! Open Table, also known as Top Table in the UK, is offering a phone app which can replace a credit card or cold hard CASH payment.  Participating restaurants (as of now, only in the United States) will accept your money via phone! How does it work? Install the app, make sure the restaurant is taking part, log-in, review your check in real time, add a tip and slide to pay ! Your phone is basically directly connected to the Open Table system of the dining place. Ok, ok we'd give it a try or just get invited & observe, either way! :) (photos © OpenTable.com )

Romantic music PLUS candlelight but no power supply needed? Where can we sign up for that? The Pelty is a unique new concept speaker, which transforms thermal energy into electric energy. POWERED BY FIRE. A candle, based in the center of the handmade Italian glass, is producing the heat, which will be collected and converted into energy to play songs from your phone via Bluetooth.  Now before you get too excited, know this: The Pelty is an interesting concept but not on the market yet. In fact, its inventors are currently trying to raise the necessary funds, to bring this little gadget to a shop near you. We would definitely be willing to check this product out, once it becomes available. If you want to get involved, click here to become a Pelty supporter . (all photos © Pelty.it )
