Hate getting up? Would a really cool alarm a clock help? Ok, probably not, but this is something different. We covered this back at the tail-end of 2005 but now it’s available.
The Blowfly Alarm Clock has a propeller on top and when the alarm sounds, it kicks in until the top part of the clock is hovering in the air emitting strange, annoying noises. You have to snatch it out of the air and place back in its pod for the din to subside. I think I’d be happy staying in bed with earplugs watching this hover all day.
It’s not often that concept products, even a competition winner like this, make it into production so it might just be time to abuse my plastic just one more time. Yours for around £27 here.-Martin Lynch

Luxury Washing Machine Mistakes Tacky For Tasteful January 28, 2007

From online music stores to domestic chores, Samsung has its fingers in every new news pie this week. Meet it’s luxury Hauzen washing machine with a twist, compliments of designer Andre Kim. If you live in an art deco manor then this will fit in perfectly but, for the rest of you, does the expression ‘tacky kitsch nonsense’ mean anything?
If it’s like the previous Hauzen washing machine then it will feature the 'Silver Wash' technology from the original. This means that it uses electrolysis to sterilise and kill 99.9% of bacteria.
“When set on 'Silver Wash,' the washer's sterilisation system generates silver particles that kill off bacteria and mold in the laundry giving clothes a clean, healthy and bacteria-free wash.”
Wow, all that with some ugly gilding thrown in. The girl is extra. Jump for a close-up.- Martin Lynch
