iBar the largest multitouch touchscreen
"This is the surface of an interactive, 10 meter long bar. Every glass, cup, cellphone, car key, businesscard or even fingers will be recognized. www.i-bar.ch"
seems kind of cheesy but id love to see what mcdonalds could do with something like this in the day light. I saw movie theaters using video screens to promote their food menus the other day.

how Christmas is really Made in China
Christmas is a consumer bonanza, but where do all these products that flood December come from? The answers China. From fake Christmas trees and ornaments to iPhones and XBoxes, China has become, for all intents and purposes, our North Pole. GOOD unwraps the numbers.

Merry Christmas

-
Made in 1898, G.A. Smith's 'Santa Claus' is a film of considerable technical ambition and accomplishment for its period. It uses pioneering visual effects in its depiction of a visit from St. Nicholas.
A former magic lanternist and hypnotist, Smith was one of the first British film-makers to make extensive use of special effects to create fantastical scenes. It comes as little surprise that Smith corresponded with the French pioneer Georges Méliès at about this time, as the two men shared a common goal in terms of creating an authentic cinema of illusion. (Michael Brooke)

yahoo did something similar
Like the iPhone 3G, the iPod touch is sensitive to motion and stimulus, making gameplay a uniquely engaging experience. To illustrate that, the Yahoo Games page "reacts" to the movement of the gamer in this piece by TBWA/Media Arts Lab.

Thummit's 'last night on Earth' poll
In the DC area, Jesse and I both would eat at Restaurant Eve.
Why do we ask? JESS3 has been working with the DC-based start-up, Thummit, and are glad to share these two opportunities:
- A beta invite code: DCeats (enter it in here http://www.thummit.com/)
- A chance to win a $200 gift certificate to the restaurant of your choice. This is for all beta users who vote in the "Last Night on Earth" poll from now until the end of December.
So what exactly is Thummit?
Thummit makes restaurant reviews simple, social and portable.
It’s simple. In the modern sea of information, Thummit is based on the belief that less is more – a quick Thumms up or down from a friend is more helpful than a long rant or rave from a faceless stranger.
It’s social. Thummit lets you share and save advice from friends and other trusted sources easily and quickly.
It’s portable. Rate restaurants from your computer, your mobile and even via Twitter (just "@Thummit"). Give and get recommendations whenever and wherever you need them!
