There are things that people with gadgety needs want, and one of those things are the latest tech stuff, that is if you are into gadgets. Well, I’m into gadgets, frankly i love gadgets and i love technology i don’t love the fact that it goes forward in the speed of light, it could go faster.
 
Back to the iPhone, the rumors are out there and it goes from, slimmer design, GPS, 3g with extreme speeds, white or black color, 32gb SSD and the list goes on. As early as today i’ve read rumors that other “companies” are shaking there kneecaps like crazy over the fact that the iPhone could have GPS and one device then would have the advantage over a tridzillion other gadgets and GPS units that only does GPS will die out.

So are there any other good reason why you should get an iPhone?! Just start with the basic, it’s a phone and a decent camera, thats the main reason you get it because you want a phone. Then you have; Mail, Calendar, Weather feedback, Stock, Notes, Photos… But it does not stop there, it’s also an iPod, Yes an iPod, with functions as, Movies, Podcasts and ofcourse Music. Then we can start going on the subject App store witch will defiantly make you get the best out of your iPhone.

I want this House, California Modernist


There are a few things in life that i really want, the first is a house that is worthy the title house in my eyes and i wanna sketch it my self. Then there is kids, who doesn’t want them? So this house is just spectacular, it feels a bit cold on the outside, but the heat and warmness from the inside just shines thru those big windows, and the interior, I’m a big minimalism fan mixed with items that you hold close to your heart. Who could think that a sofa made out of concrete could look so cosy? Full slideshow here

There is no news.

So here’s an interesting concept - what if there was no news? If we woke up one morning, and nothing was happening. Turn on the 24-hour news channels, and find no reports of war, death, terrorism, financial turmoil. Nothing. This is what the BBC News Channel could look like if that happened. The news presenters, who usually have nothing to say anyway when they are filling up the hours and hours of continuous news coverage, now quite literally have nothing to say. The result is a powerful, silent commentary on the nature of news today. / David
 

FutureFamous


So in the future of aviation we will see changes, first we see changes in numbers of travelers then we will see a change in the fuel usage, and new ways of powering airplanes (with things as sustainable as humanly possible). The Boeing/NASA X-48b as seen on the big picture is one of those future features that are just radical and unbelievable to the eye. What do you think we need to do with the future aviation industry, stop flying or just start researching?!
 
Look at this youtube movie of the X-48b

Summer 08, Sophisticated?! My thoughts…

So lets start off with, there has been a time without any real thoughts here at WASF. Thats because we really don’t know if you people read and look at pictures or if you just look at the pictures, but here is one of those post with a bit of thought in it.
 
This summer maybe looking awfully lot like something taken from the early 80’s if Im not miss correcting; However i still believe that there are more sophisticated constellations behind the entire summer conspiracy. For example; Why would you like this chick wear a pair of high knickers to the beach, is it fashion or just pure insanity? I think lots of these lifestyle pictures are amazing and its like i wanna be in that picture thats something that would fit my lifestyle amazingly.

 
“And its kinda the same with all lifestyle photography, and also thats what they wanna create, an urge to be in that position. “ 
 
Another thing that came in mind; Fashion Blogs… When are they starting to fade, i mean how interesting is it to read about some 14 year old girl writing about what clothes she’s going to wear to school. And all these other Fashion Bloggers writing about fashion junk, who are they to tell the world what to wear, i can assure you that they are most certainly very uncomfortable in themselves. Then you probably think well you write about fashion?! Well ofcourse we do, but we are not telling you what to buy and we are not a 14 year old girl that gives up the homework for her needs to blog. We are serious and we put you guys in the first hand. So is it possible for us to write about pure fashion? of course! then why don’t we do it?
 
 “Well because of the fact that even if we did people would still be more interested in Sofia, 15 in Yolkshire writing about her small paris hilton look-a-like dog”.
 
  So we stick to things we think is cool, things we wanna share with you and mainly things that we wanna give some extra credibility. So what do we really think of the summer to come, we believe in the power of the mob, we are sure that people will have the “Celeb-On-Herion-Look” the entire summer, we do also believe that speedos will be doing a minor comeback, and next year really explode. (we ain’t gonna wear them) but the mob decides. We also think that soft ice, like (Mr. Whippeys) will be a very big I-Want factor. The global warming will show it self again, not in the ways of destruction but in the subtle way of giving us a hard time, no rain, and hot weather. So i hope you enjoy some of our thoughts and that you read and not only look at the pictures. Have a really good day in the sun / snow / rain or cloudiness. - Mr Linus

Baulthaup B2 Kitchen.


This kitchen is perfect for you who love to cook but hate the clutter that easily builds up! The pre-ordered spacing for everything from the tiniest spoon to your large pans are just amazing, this kitchen can’t be out of order, it just can’t.When i see this i compare it to the kitchen that we roll with now, witch is awfully wrong, because the size of out kitchen seems like a 1/10th out of the Baulthaup B2 one. But i do like it and if i was made out of some more money i would afford it when i build my self a house, only time will tell.

Disaster Relief Robot by Daniel Shankland ll


This is a model of a futuristic humanoid robot that are supposed to rescue people in distress across the globe. This is pure gadget love and i can admit that I’m a softy when it comes to robots.

So i would say i wish this was real, and also if it was this is most certainly a project that i want to be on. The small (not that small) model is made out of astonishing 600 + pieces and the whole concept took over 6 months to complete.

I sure as hell loved Iron Man, and i think that we will see in a time span of 20 - 30 years robots like this developed and being shipped. So i’ll try to hang in there as long as i can. - Linus

Emission free FirePlace - ECO trend


Lets start off this week with an ECO trend, the indoor / outdoor Fire Place that runs on ECO fuel and the only emission is H2o and a small amount Co2. The company Planika Fires has their own patent on the BIO ethanol (maybe something else), but i know that you can buy this fuel in your local hardware store.

So it’s time to pimp your IKEA furniture with some radical BIO fireplaces and the only thing buring in your lovely shag is that kick ass BIO fireplace from Planika
