Unboxing Live 037: TokyoFlash Pimpin Ain’t Easy watch
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Clothing, Features, Videocasts,
If there’s one thing we like about Japan, it’s how their wicked cool technology meshes with their interesting pop culture preferences. We think the Pimpin Ain’t Easy watch from TokyoFlash fits into that category. In fact, just about every TokyoFlash watch meets that criteria. They go out of their way to come up with some of the most interesting ways of telling time that we’ve seen. In this episode, we give you the rundown on the Pimpin Ain’t Easy watch. It features 72 LED lights, which make it nice and bright. The time is read by reading the hours on the left hand side, and the minutes on the right. It takes a little getting used to, but it’s definitely an attention-grabber.
Etch-A-Sketch Doubles as Clock
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Design, Smart Home, Misc. Tech, Toys, Videos,
We have discovered many odd clocks at Gear Live and this prototype is no exception. Made out one of our fave toys, the Etch-A-Sketch Clock, built on the Arduino platform, was designed by the New York mechanical engineer Angela Yuan. When a minute goes by, the device tilts, shakes to remove the current display, and changes it to update the time. We think it is a novel idea and hope Ms.Yuan continues her creative streak.

The Most Racially Important Films
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Music, Period, Romance, Comedy, Sports, Thrillers, Lists,
To celebrate Black History Month, Time magazine has named what it believes to be ‘The 25 Most Important Films on Race.’
In making these selections, the magazine hopes to “honor the artistry, appeal and determination of African Americans on and behind the screen.”
Some choices were predictable (Gone with the Wind, In the Heat of the Night), some were surprising (Bamboozled, I Am Legend), while others were left off altogether (Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?, Glory).
To get detailed summaries on the movies - and the reasons behind Time’s selections - click here.
In the meantime, you can find a list of the titles (in reverse chronological order) after the jump.
