Desktop Clock
Sorry for the slow update. I have so many ideas scribbled in my Moleskine, but these days I just haven’t had enough time to have them rendered to introduce here. I’ll make a few posts about some future digital gadgets from next time.

Gravity on Desktop #1
Newton virus concept (which I love) + pinball.
Not practical at all. Just for having fun playing with the files on your desktop.

Black Hole on Desktop
Throw your trash into this black hole and it’ll be completely gone. You don’t even have to do the “empty trash”. Extremely dangerous. Just a joke.
Oops!
I just noticed I’ve forgotten to include one image in the post “My Dream Mac #2 (Macbook Touch Concept)”. Sorry!
Just a Sketch: Shuffle?
Pretty rough one I thought of just this morning.
Thinner and narrower, but a little longer to clip on your shirt etc. easily. Mmmmm.. maybe not. I’ll make a shorter one later.
Fixed.
Would Be So Much “Phun” On iPhone!
I’m absolutely in love with Phun, a free game like 2D app for kids, where they can learn physics, science and so many other stuff.
What I think is that it would be much more fun to play it with the iPhone because you can actually tilt it to see what happens.
I happened to find a similar application called iPhysics, but I think Phun has a lot more functions and is really educational for kids.

Desktop Holography #1
the real “desktop help” with the images projected in the air
Maybe you can ‘touch’ the projected images: move, rotate, expand/shrink, etc.
I don’t know if/when this can be realized, though.

10-Key + Calculator
There are a lot of 10-Key keyboards available, but this one goes well with the Apple’s thin wireless keyboard.
It can slide under the keyboard when you don’t use it.
When you use it as a calculator, how about “projecting” the numbers on your desk?

iPod Touch Camera (Concept)
(It’s just a concept.)
Mmmmm, maybe or maybe not.

HD Icons That Self-report Problems

The Ball’s in My Court? I Was Waiting for Your Answer!
That happens very often, doesn’t it? Then why not visually check who’s turn to answer and how many answers are on hold in your Mail app?
A blue ball means “It’s MY turn to answer”, while the yellow is “I’m waiting for an answer”. If you keep ignoring a question, the ball gets bigger and bigger!
“WHO’S GOT THE BALL” image visualizes who’s turn to give an answer. In the message area, the correspondent question is highlighted.
If it’s you who are waiting for an answer, there’s a yellow ball held by the other side.
In most cases, though, there are more than one question in a message. In that case, you’ve got as many balls as the questions being asked!

Folder Icon That Talks #1
Set the timer and assign what to do when the time comes.
Then the icon “visually” tells you what to do when the scheduled time gets closer.
It would be better if it could work with your mail/schedule app.

Quick View of File Directory
Why can’t we quickly view the whole file directory with one click?
And of course, there should be a search function for each view.

Real-World Folder Sorting
In the REAL world, I usually name the folder with a large title. Of course I choose a typeface for the title and a folder color.
When I have multiple compartments in the folder, put the titles on the tags.
If I have many items in one folder, I add an index on it. Yeah, usually.

Mac Morph?
What amazed me most about the Morph concept by Nokia is that it came from Nokia itself, not by a daydreaming designer like me, meaning it’s quite promising.
I really like the material that is flexible enough to change its form. If that’s really possible,
first it could be used as a display,
second, fold it half and it could be used as a macbook pro,
and for some more other purposes,
it would be useful to read like a magazine,
and if it could be folded a few times, it could be an ipod.
Oh, am I daydreaming again?
iCal Watch
It’s a half digital version of the idea I posted before. This time, input your schedule in iCal and send it to this watch using bluetooth.
No MP3 player or any other iPod-like functions.
