Recycled Seat Belt Camera Straps

Photojojo is is selling camera straps made from reclaimed seat belts. Each strap is handmade, and comes in four colors; Porsche Purple, Mercedes Gold, T-bird Teal, and Dodge Silver. One strap will cost you $20, or you can get 2 for $35.

I think these are pretty cool, but where’s basic black?

Moo does full-size business cards

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

I’ve always thought Moo’s mini cards were great, but they’re just a little to narrow for my images. Luckily, Moo just announced that they’ll be doing full-size business cards very soon. For $21.99 you can get 50 cards that use up to 50 different images. There’s also an option to use 100% recycled, 100% recyclable and bio-degradable paper. I can’t wait!

Oh, and if you sign up for Moo’s newsletter, you’ll get a coupon for 20% off your first order of cards when they become available.

UPDATE (7.02.08): The new full-size cards went on sale yesterday. I already ordered a batch of 50. I chose their green paper. If you plan to order some, don’t wait until the last minute before you need them. They take about a week to print, and 10 days to reach you if you live in the US (they’re coming from London).

iPod Recycling Speaker

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

Speaker made from iPod packaging

The Bird-Electron EZ17-B iPod Recycling Speaker is a clever little speaker system that uses the plastic packaging your iPod came in as the enclosure for the speaker. What a great way to reuse something that would more than likely end up in the trash.

“Bird-Electron presents this one and only Recycling Speaker for iPod. The dimension is exactly the same as the plastic package for iPod Nano (1st & 2nd Gen.) and iPod Shuffle (2nd & 3rd Gen.). Simply just place the speaker panel on top of the open box, and plug it into the iPod and play. Bird-Electron’s recycling speaker does not require any power source. You can also customize your own recycling speaker with any small container like a water bottle. Easy to install. Available only from Bird-Electron.”
