Happy Solstice

What it says on the tin.

The days are as long as they're going to get, and hopefully they will be full of joy and love for all.

Am working on the board game writing. Please keep an eye out for apartment possibilities for me.

The Latest Innovation in Obsolescence

Sure, anybody can plug a Bluetooth typewriter into an iPad and give themselves some actual feedback while typing on the thing instead of its native ghost keyboard. But sometimes you just want to get really retro. Sometimes you want to have that Batman: The Animated Series mix of old-school film noir charm linked to cutting-edge post-modernist tech.

And that, my friends, is when you go and get yourself a USB Typewriter.

That's right, for the small fee of about $400 US, you can get an old manual typewriter linked to a USB port, turning it into a functioning keyboard for any USB-capable machine. For the added bonus chic, an iPad can be docked into the damn thing.

Note for people who like to be more DIY (I know some of you are out there), you can get a kit to do it yourself for $75.
