keyboard skins


I remember back in highschool having to manually pop keys off keyboards to swap them for color coded app specific ones.

These would have made my job alot simpler

KOR Water


To be honest I’m trying to do my part in making myself greener, you know recycling, taking public transit etc. But I’m still a huge bottled water freak. Part of that is due to the fact that my Toronto water is highly chlorinated. I can smell it when I take a shower, its gross actually. But part of it is that I’m just not used to carrying around my own personal water vessel. I’m testing myself at work right now since we have switched from having bottled water at TAXI to having water bottles available to fill up with filtered water from the fridge. So far things are going well. These KOR Water bottles look neat, a bit steep on their projected price of $30 but the savings in the end will offset the initial cost.

I’m hopefully going to grab 2 when they drop this august, their site is kinda nice too.

A Million Here, A Million Everywhere

It is no question that Bangladesh put out the hottest beat of 2G8, so hot that EVERYONE from LL to Chris Brown had to remix it. Vibe talks to the man behind the beat gives his best and worse remix review.

Brandon Bird

I’ve been a fan of Brandon Bird since I first saw his Lazy Sunday Afternoon

; a painting of Christopher Walken building a robot. In the beginning of the month, he updated his site with new work you can purchase as the original piece or a digital print. Check out the piece What Nat Saw to see why I dig (actually the name is a pretty obvious giveaway).

mgsbook.jpg

this book is the extent of my metal gear solid 4 experience for now (ok, i did listen to the soundtrack too). i’m holding off on the ridiculous amount of money i’d have to pay to play it, since i don’t have a ps3, but if you’ve got mgs4 stories… let’s hear them in the comments. a lot of people have been waiting a lonnnnnng time for today to finally come, and this would not be exclusivestm.com if we didn’t mention it today.

Arlo + Valo

!!! two rollerbladers that the exclusives™ have much love for are getting together to do something great for rollerblading. mr. arlo eisenberg himself just posted this teaser on the franco blog (buy some goods while you’re there too) and i am SO down. this is what rollerblading needs… more attention to art, design, and fostering relationships for NEW executions of our old ideas. other skate companies take note!

jj and arlo, please consider this my personal formal request for 1 pair whenever they are ready.

REJOICE! $199

wow, was it just me or did the internet kinda-sorta almost pause for a minute there while we sat through those dveloper demos? nice one steve. full coverage on engadget i dunno… i wish it was a completely new build, oh and it’s $299 for the white 16 gig, if you didnt see it.

The Wackness

This movie comes out in a month and looks promising…at least to me. Check out the artwork on the site and the teaser here.

It’s On!

 finals.jpg

This NBA season is very interesting and I’m glad that the battle is between these two combatants. The Finals start today and I couldn’t be anymore juiced. It starts today 9ET on ABC.

so god-damned dope

C3


Ok listen, I know not everybody is feelin’ lil wayne. Hell I wasn’t into him till a friend got me juiced on it. That aside if just happen to have a chance to sit down and listen to this record please do. Honestly I’m halfway through and I’m really liking it. Production has been brought up for this release along comes the crazy semi-nonsensical lyrics, that I always find myself chuckling to. I’m not telling you to go out and buy it, I’m telling you that if you remotely like hip hop, have a taste for what some might call as disposable hip hop then by all means spend the time it takes to listen to this disk.

thanks
