Look, we've got enough problems as it is with walking corpses rising from the grave and trying to eat us.

TI's wireless charger for tablets does amazing things with electrons, sticky tape

Either TI has the hots for Arduino in a big way, or its latest wireless charging kit isn't quite ready for mass production. When it does arrive, however, it promises to do away with those cumbersome specialized sleeves and back covers that are currently needed for inductive charging. Instead, it'll deliver efficient in a package that's small enough to be installed as part of a device's internal circuitry. In addition to the Qi-standard 5W version we glimpsed a while back, the company is also working on a 10W variant for the iPad 2 and other tablets, which could wipe the smile off LaunchPort's face and perhaps make MicroUSB 3.0 superfluous before it even gets here.

5 Ways For Startups To Grow Their Brands On Twitter

ryan_dogpatch_reasonably_small (1)Last week I began an effort to answer the questions I get asked most frequently by entrepreneurs, starting with how to create an early-stage pitch deck. Today, I address a topic as relevant for early stage startups (vying for consumer attention) as it is for more mature companies (focused on customer relationships): How to grow your brand on Twitter? Twitter is the ultimate marketing platform. But the scale of Twitter activity is so extraordinary (250 million tweets per day) that it is quite easy to get lost in the noise… particularly if you are an early-stage startup and/or an emerging brand.

Ikea Spoons and Plates and Bowls Turned into Art [Image Cache]

Ikea has to be the antithesis of art, right? Nothing you find in 80% of freshman dorms and my bedroom can be considered art. Or, you can hand it to photographer Carl Kleiner, and everything becomes beautiful. More »

IPad Frame Bag Clamps to Your Bike

I have given up trying to mount an iPad up on my touring bike’s handlebars. While having heads-up maps displayed would be handy, the things just too darn big, and too hard to secure safely. A frame-bag, on the other hand, is almost as convenient and has the advantage of better security and not acting [...]

In a bid to codify design principles for the operating system's look and feel, Google unveiled Android Design at CES on Thursday.

BlackBerry Messenger 6.0 screenshots leak

bbm 6
A leaked early version of RIM's upcoming BlackBerry Messenger 6 has been making the rounds since late February, but images of the new app are just now beginning to appear. Over at CrackBerry, the crew has shared a handful of images of BBM 6 in action. Unfortunately, you won't get a glimpse at a chat or file transfer -- only the profile screens (after the break) and what you see above. All that's really revealed so far is the option to set custom contact and chat colors and BlackBerry OS 6.1-style icons.

CrackBerry also warns against installing the leaked BBM 6 app. There's no guarantee this app hasn't been tampered with, and BlackBerry devices are becoming a more common target for cybercriminals.
