If you are the sort of person that is scared about putting your fingers where others have been before, rejoice, as thanks to an inexpensive prophylactic pointer, you no longer have to touch things with your own skin.

According to the manufacturer:

Great for keypads/point-of-sale terminals in stores, ATMs, elevator buttons, gas station pump buttons, courier scanners, and more # Wide, flat round end for pushing mechanical buttons # Integrated stylus tip for tapping electronic buttons and for signing # Mounts on key ring for ready availability # Made of strong high quality polycarbonate ABS.

This silly product is presumably marketed at people deathly afraid of H1N1.

Price: $2.99 [Red Ferret]

Ever wanted to take those gosh-darn snooty French down a notch or three but have an immense dislike of all things jail or handcuff related? Well, take ‘em down a notch or so with your newfound ability to write on their precious monuments of Paris on this set of cards from Atypyk.

Atypyk is sponsoring a group exhibit from July 18th through the 16th of October at the Château De Sainte Colombes Ee Auxois, France.

I just want the cards… send me some Atypyk. Pretty please? I promise to write “nice” things on them… *fingers crossed*

By Andrew Liszewski

You never know when inspiration is going to strike, and sometimes an unused napkin at dinner provides the perfect place to sketch out your next brilliant idea. But you have to be careful, if your drawings are too crude you could end up with an 18-inch high model of Stonehenge like in Spinal Tap, or even worse, an eyesore like this. But if you keep a stack of these graph paper napkins on hand, not only will you be ready to wipe the barbecue sauce off your fingers, but you’ll also be able to produce super accurate schematic scale drawings wherever you are. A stack of just 12 of these napkins will unfortunately set you back CDN, but at least they’re made from recycled paper.
