As a kid, they teach you not to eat the modeling clay, but now there's a much tastier and, well, certainly more healthier alternative. Magic Choc is flexible, squishable, and shapeable chocolate that you can use like modeling clay, but is actually edible too. This magically pliable confection is made with 100% Belgian chocolate using a patent-protected method that lets the chocolate set while remaining flexible and non-messy.I think I would sculpt a chocolate bar out of this!

In today’s disposable world, most of us may just “love something” and just “have to have it” one minute, and the next week, when the newest style takes over, it may be gone with the wind. Andy Mangold’s newest project, a book called Heirloom, seeks to uncover what our “throwaway generation” puts a value on—and not just for a week. Today people tend to spend their money on things that aren’t designed to last. Cell phones, laptops, digital cameras, MP3 players: all of these things are either broken or obsolete a mere few years after they’re purchased. Andy Mangold conducted interviews and photo shoots with 38 of his peers holding an object they hold dear. The results were compiled into a leather bound book that will also be passed down as a personal heirloom. So what does the X Generation value? Find out more by clicking here.
It’s called the Slap, and it turns your iPod Nano into a watch. The Slap is a version of those old slap bracelets that are still used today to make reflective cuffs for cyclists. Inside is a strip of memory-metal that you can straighten out, but that instantly circles your arm and grips it when you slap it against your wrist. Griffin’s Slap has a semi-enclosed capsule for the iPod, with a single hole for the headphones to enter. The volume and sleep/wake buttons are covered, but have raised nodules over them to help you click through. The touch-screen is of course always exposed. Check out more about the Slap at Griffin Technology.
