Silly Saturdays: The Usability Of Urinals

This is a serious post, but I find it just a bit silly: the usability of urinals. Apparently, it’s serious business.

Silly Saturdays: I eat therefore IHam

IJam

This comes by courtesy of BoingBoing. Check out the IHam 5JS , an Apple spoof site by Shackleton, a PR firm in Spain. Absolutely hilarious! It gives me the same satisfaction as when Apple lowered the price of the Iphone after 3 months on the market and made hordes of early adopters “IRate.” Don’t get me wrong. I love Apple products, but the smugness of some Apple-philes drive me nuts. Just goes to prove that even the ridiculous (in this case, a ham) can be cool, if packaged in the sleek Apple grey and presented by an ultra geek in black glasses.
