Weird Combo of the Day: Free iPod Nano With Twelve-Pack of Caulk

Jason Chen — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:50:00 EDT

Oh, caulk! Is there anything you can't do? Not only do you allow us to plug up holes by squirting your oozing, white fluid-like substance all over the place, but you come in a long and pleasing missile shape. And if you get too difficult to clean up after using, all we have to do is cut off a bit of the tip! How convenient. And now you even come with a free iPod nano if we buy 12 of you? C'mon! How can we not love caulk? [Found in Egersund Norway thanks to Erlend]

AT&T Brings Back Cingular Orange to "Mobilize" Brand; Jack's Still Dead

Matt Buchanan — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 11:40:13 EDT

After spending an ungodly amount of money to kill Jack and mutate the Cingular brand into the "new AT&T," they've decided that Cingular's orange palette offered a "younger, edgier and more contemporary style—all attributes closely associated with wireless." But clearly not AT&T. So, they're rebranding. Again. Look for Death Stars set against the new "primary corporate color," orange, and a series of commercials directed by Wes Anderson coming your way as of—yesterday. Wow, I feel AT&T tickling my cutting edge sensibilities already. [AT&T via Broadband Reports]

Adding to Collection of Keyboard Puns: Save Key Piggybank

Charlie White — Fri, 23 Feb 2007 09:07:03 EST

As a part of our continuing series on useful objects patterned after keyboard keys, our next candidate is this little play on words, a coin bank that looks like a Save button. Ironically, at $9.75 it just about costs more than the amount of coins it can hold.

Now if someone will make a trash can that looks like a Delete key, a remote car starter that looks like a start button and place a keyboard-like Home key on a GPS navigator, we could decorate our surroundings for total geekdom. – Charlie White
