Posters worthy of framing

Most posters these days are either tired or boring. So it’s refreshing to see some very unique retro inspired posters. Check ‘em out over at theposterlist.com. These babies are definitely worth the paper they’re printed on. Only $11 bucks! ($10.99 to be exact)

Disco - Hands-down the best disc burning application for Mac OS X Leopard!

Jun 22, 2008 Author: stephen chip | Filed under: Apps

The folks over at madebysofa have built the best disc burning app that I’ve seen for for Mac OS X Leopard by far. It’s so innovative and simple is hard to believe no one has thought of it before. I downloaded a trial here, then after burning two discs, I bought it. 

Let’s start with the interface. Super clean + sexy. Black with white type with great icons and animations. For example, once you begin burning a disc, animated smoke flows out the top of the window. You can even set a preference so that you can blow into your microphone and affect the smoke. Little touches like that make Disco fun to use.

There is even an option to pull up an “Index” window which keeps a record of all of the discs you’ve burned and allows full search capabilities. Usually a secondary program is required.

Disco also includes “Spanning” which automatically divides files that are too big for one disc and would “span” across several discs. With Disco you can create a disc image from a set group of files. For you laptop burners, it can even detect physical motion to prevent coasters.

With a price of only $29.95, it’s well worth the effort. You will not be disappointed.

Super low-fi hipster music video

Addictive music video by NAIVE NEW BEATERS. I definitely enjoyed the video more than the song.

So long $8 dollar beers!

Beer belly

What’s the best way to avoid paying $8 bucks a beer at a concert? Simply bring it along in your fake Beerbelly. What a concept. Its surprising that no one else thought of it before. What to do if you already have a beer belly? No worries, you just gained another 20 pounds overnight. I mean, who’s going to notice anyhow?

Don’t worry girls – they have a product just for you. It’s called the Winerack and it’s just like you guessed it. A bra that you fill up with – what else – wine!
