May 22nd, 2009 link to (permalink)

15 years ago

For our special theme day on coffee, I decided to review the Bonjour Montano French press mdash not because it's new (it came out in 2007), but because it was by far the coolest looking commercially sold French press out there. I was digging the brushed stainless steel leaning-tower-of-Pisa look.

When citydwellers go camping, we tend to opt for the ol' "Cowboy Cup." Read: pour the ground beans into a cup, add water, let sit and sip. A few grounds in your mouth here and there, but dammit, you feel tough as nails. You know what? I've decided that's plain ridiculous.

Now that the dust is settling on NYC after thousands of designers exit back to their respective cities worldwide, it's time to get a bit introspective about the show. Why do we make the trip every year? For the new products? For the networking? For the offsite exhibitions?

The iPhone is still hands-down one of the best 5 tech purchases I've made over the past decade -- actually, it's probably the best. I use it every day to do a variety of things that I still find incredible that I'm able to do in something so portable.
