Hey fatties, now you can reach those chips at the bottom of a Pringles can with The Bloom Chip Tube
Pringles are yummy, but they have one major flaw— the stupid, skinny cylindrical can. Sure, it keeps all the chips stacked nice and neat to reduce the number of broken chips, but unless you’ve got small hands and arms, getting the bottom third is a pain. The solution? The Bloom Chips can. Ingeniously, it transforms from a tube into a bowl for easier munching.
Young designer Dohyuk Kwon encountered the same problem we all have before: He was enjoying a package of Pringles potato crisps until, suddenly, he found the chip level had sunk to a critical expletive-laden stage just below the reach of his fingers. “So I sketched a more convenient package of chips,” he tells Co.Design.
His concept is called Bloom Chips, and it won a Red Dot Award for its obvious brilliance: Bloom Chips is a wrinkled cylinder that unfurls to create its own bowl. “Its mechanism is more complex than it looks,” says Kwon. “Simply speaking, it’s like a blooming flower.” The idea is so instantly impressive that it’s impossible to imagine why no one at Procter & Gamble thought of it first.
Be a decent human for once and become an organ donor…. on Facebook
For the last couple days, Mark Zuckerberg has been talking about an awesome new life-saving feature coming soon to Facebook. So what is it? Well… you can now share with the world on your timeline that you’re an organ donor.
Facebook explains the new feature:
With the addition of “organ donor” to the Life Events section of timeline, you can state your intention to become an organ donor, and share your story about when, where or why you decided to become a donor. If you are not officially registered as an organ donor, sign up with the appropriate registry.
To add that you’re an organ donor to your Timeline, you have to follow the following instructions:
-Click Life Event at the top of your timeline
-Select Health & Wellness
-Select Organ Donor
-Select your audience and click Save
-The company says that the feature “is only available in some countries,” providing links to registries in both the US and UK, so it could be limited on launch day and roll out wider as Facebook partners with donation charities and organisations around the world.Yesterday, it was revealed that Mark Zuckerberg and company had something up its sleeves and would announce it this morning on “Good Morning America”. During the exclusive interview, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and COO Sheryl Sandberg will show the world a new tool that “has the power to save lives from their new Menlo Park, CA headquarters”.
In the release, Zuckerberg and Sandberg noted:
Facebook’s mission is simple: to make the world more open and connected. But the Facebook community has also shown us that simply through sharing and connecting, the world gets smaller and better. Even one individual can have an outsized impact on the challenges facing another, and on the world. At Facebook, we call that the power of friends.
So that’s cool, and certainly might increase the number of people who are organ donors, but on Zuck’s two day talk show spree, I hate to sound cynical, but I expected more. Some people were thinking it might be some new anti-cyberbullying tool, or an emergency alert system through FB, when this is basically just one more checkbox to check in your profile. It’s cool that they’re doing it, but not quite as groundbreaking as everyone thought.
Proof that Jack and Rose could have both fit on that door
So maybe it wouldn’t have been able to support both of them but they could have at least taken turns switching. Rose is such a selfish bitch.
