The Image Conscious Phone

Welcome to the world of the Samsung G600 slim slider - the image conscious phone :)



What makes it more "image conscious" than other phones (besides its being black, slim and beautiful)? It has no less than a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and image stabilizer, which is quite a feat for a cellphone. The camera also has white balance, panorama capabilities and 4x digital zoom. After taking your pictures you can edit them using the phone's image editor and them print them directly either via Bluetooth or using Pictbridge. In case you're also into listening to music Samsung G600 also boasts a Video Player with MPEG4, MP3 Player and a music library.

Given that the slogan of the campaign around G600 is "Image conscious design for image conscious people", there is also a competition on the phone's website where people can vote for the most image conscious Queue Jumper (out of the 300 pictures in the gallery, pictures taken with the G600 in various clubs across the UK). There is also a Queue Jumper application poll on Facebook that you can fill in, giving yourself the chance of winning one of these image conscious mobiles.

The site also boasts with a "Top thirty guide to the most uber stylish clubs in the UK", which is a must for any self respecting club-goer :)

However even if you do not live in the UK and cannot enlist in the competition, you might still want to visit the site, at least to find out what the hype is about (especially as the site is rather image conscious too). :)

Buy Furniture Online

Is your daily life rhythm so alert that you never find the time to replace that old shabby furniture? You think you need new shelves but have no idea where to find some free delivery ones?

Well then, meet FurnitureFromHome :)



FurnitureFromHome is, as the title says, a site where you can choose and buy furniture online, from the comfort of your home, whenever you've got a bit of time to spare. There are many ways to browse the site: you can check out the new items category, the furniture on sale category, you can search by the room where you want to put the new furniture (bedroom, dining room, etc), by the category (sleigh beds, curio cabinets) or, my favorite, you can also search by color!

You can pay for your furniture via check or Paypal. Oh, and have I mentioned the shipping is totally free in all US? Assembling and clearing of debris is also included.

The site is very easy to use with warm shades of brown that make you think of (what else?) furniture and coziness. I have to say I have seen some interesting items there (check out the king beds section for example). The lifestyle suggestions and the furniture tips are also a nice touch.

Interested? Click here to visit the site (and check out the queen beds :) )

London Accommodation

London. Such a beautiful city, where the old mixes with the new. One of my favorite dream-about destinations. Just look at some pics:

Doesn't it look lovely?

If, like me, you're interested in visiting London then you'll probably need some London Accommodation suggestions too. Here is an interesting site: CheaperThanHotels.co.uk.

What do they have so special you may ask? First of all they guarantee the lowest prices around. They also have a very broad range of offers, from 1 star hotels to 5 star ones. I very much like the fact that they have a picture of each hotel so that people may get an idea what to expect (as you'll notice the vast majority of London hotels are impressively good-looking too :) ). Another advantage of this site is the fact that a lot of the hotels presented here also offer last minute options (in case you suddenly decide you want to spend a romantic weekend in London). If I'll also add that there are some discounts for groups of 11+ people and that the site also offers the possibility of renting a car through them you'll just have to agree it's a very useful site for people planning to travel. And did I mention there is also a newsletter you can subscribe to? It will keep you in touch with the newest hotel-related deals, possibly helping you save quite a few bucks in the future.

Only fault I can find this site is that the prices are only presented in pounds not also in US dollars and/or Euros (or is it that I didn't find that option?), however it's not such big a deal given that London is in England so you'll need some pounds to visit there anyway. :)

Have I raised your interest? Then what are you waiting for? Click to explore the site and make a reservation :)

Check Out the Nissan Pivo 2 Concept Car

Called the Pivo 2, the vehicle is an updated take on the same idea. The original concept was unabashedly designed for female drivers with a rotating cockpit to make reversing and parking easier, pedals with "plus" (throttle) and "minus" (brake) symbols on them so they could not be confused and transparent A- and C-pillars for better visibility. While perhaps thinking a bit too little of female driving ability, you had to hand it to Nissan for being innovative.

I remember reading about the Pivo 1 and being quite happy about the idea of the rotating cockpit that makes parking easier :) I like Pivo 2's design even more, it's so...round :P
