Waterproof Video Spy Watch

Posted by Notcot on Aug 10, 2012 in Gadgets
Waterproof Video Spy Watch

Spies are as you’re probably aware the coolest people on the planet. Their work can take them through any number of difficult terrains but the trickiest has to be underwater. So what better way for you to play at being an underwater spy than by getting hold of one of these Waterproof Spy Watches? You’ve seen it in the movies countless times now it’s your turn to swim to the bottom and take a take a video of that secret nuclear reactor! Or y’know some pretty coral. Whichever. For one watch to be packed with so many features is pretty darn incredible so let’s start at the beginning. Perhaps most impressively it can record video with the cheeky pinhole camera housed in the number ’12’ of the watch face and it’s of a remarkably high quality. Next you can also take still photos with that nifty concealed camera which is perfect for undercover surveillance purposes (and for taking on holiday). Add to that the ability to record audio as well and you’ve got an extremely impressive little package that don’t forget you can take a dip with! It’s good up to 30 metres underwater thanks to a lot of dinky watertight knobs and it charges via USB. Once you’ve taken your snaps and filmed whatever international espionage shenanigans you were supposed to you can transfer your digital gubbins to your computer ready for you to send back to HQ (or email to your mates). In all seriousness though this underwater work of genius is all you could possibly need for larking about with in your local pool or on holiday. Even if you have got some top secret work to do you can at least have some fun while you’re at it.

Tube Map Mirror

Posted by Notcot on Aug 2, 2012 in Gadgets
Tube Map Mirror

The London Tube Map is probably the most iconic schematic* map ever drawn. Despite being topographically inaccurate this lifeline to understanding how to go where in London has become a classic work of art. Nowhere has it been better represented than in this achingly cool wall mirror from those award wining London designers at Suck U.K. The London Underground map was the brain child of Harry Beck (a London Transport employee in 1931) who realised that drawing an accurate map of the tube system would just confuse the heck out of us all. His graphic schematic (which rhymes so beautifully) has become famous the world over and been copied again and again for other underground systems all over the planet. This sizeable 75cm long mirror comes with steel wall brackets and screws for mounting and is quite possibly the most chic hall or wall mirror in circulation. *Schematic means it’s a representational diagram as opposed to a topographical map (i.e. it’s shape bears no relation to reality). Solid glass mirror with gold-coloured depiction of the London Underground Map. The designer’s clever screen printing process creates the illusion that the mirror itself is etched with the map. All zones featured on the Tube Map. Steel brackets and screws for wall mounting are included. Makes a trendy but functional room feature for ‘Londonites’ and Train spotters alike. Size: 75 x 52 x 0.6cm This product is glass so you know the drill… don’t go throwing stuff at it it’s fragile.

The Grendel’s Shadow

Posted by Notcot on May 7, 2012 in Steampunk
The Grendel's Shadow

T.R. Westwood: distinguished professor of biology and the galaxy’s greatest hunter is in for the biggest challenge of his career. When an unknown animal starts killing off settlers on a backwater planet run on coal and steam power, he’s the only person who can help stop the slaughter. Rocks and spears or shotguns and canons, he’ll use whatever is allowed to get the job done.

In a post-singularity future where the human race has spread to millions of worlds, sometimes the native animal population isn’t exactly compatible with our expanding civilization. Taking advantage of a mind as sharp as his aim, Westwood is the only man you call if local wildlife gets out of control and starts devouring your local population.

The Grendel’s Shadow is 35,000 word novella mixing elements of post singularity science fiction, steampunk, horror and western.
