Well, don’t take the title literally. Please. But, sometimes you find yourself in need of a piece of paper just to write things down on. The trouble with paper is that it’s just so… yesterday.

Well, here’s Paper 2.0! That’s not the real name. Actually it’s called the Pocket Mod and it can be found here. Essentially, this is a user-modified printing template where you can customize a single sheet of paper into a mini organizer. Add a to-do list, weekly calendar, a SoDuKu puzzle, a lined page, a shopping list, and many other pages. Then, just print, fold and cut and fold again (instruction are on the web site).

Suddenly that little scrap of paper in your pocket is an eight page mini organizer. This is a really cool idea.

Give it a try.

Okay, this is just plain weird.

Go to this site and click on the “Rouge Sauvage” link at the bottom and then report back here.

Those of you who do will then understand the title of this post.

When you have about an hour to spare (while you’re eating your baked potato), read this site and see what these crazy cool folks did to the Best Buy store in Chelsea, NYC.

Talk about having too much time on your hands.

Well, if you know what RTFM means, you might be able to decipher WTFITFM? If not, I’ll give you a hint:

You want to make a baked potato in your microwave oven, but you don’t know what to set the power and timer to. So you start digging around in that kitchen drawer that has all of your leftover soy sauce, old chop sticks, bendy straws, matches, pizza store magnets, and other assorted crap stuff. Then, as you start tossing the crap stuff onto your newly cleaned kitchen floor, you scream out to your room mate/partner/spouse/dog, “Where the ____ is the _____ing manual?!”

“Well,” they calmly say back to you, “Just go to this website and STFU.”

This is the first entry into a new category that has nothing to do with Photoshop, digital photography or Macintoshes. Sometimes I find neat-o gadgets and stories that I just have to share with everyone. So here we go…

Check out this personal luxury submarine. Dubbed the “Phoenix 1000,” this is a 213-foot personal luxury sub built for Ernst Stavro Blofeld an unnamed client for an undisclosed price 78 million bucks. 5000 square feet of living space and it even has its own diver lock-out chamber and mini-sub for all those secret missions fun excursions.
