Just because I know how impressed you were to find out that Rosario Dawson Speaks Klingon, I thought I'd take this opportunity to fill all you Trekkies in on a Google secret. Did you know that there is such a thing called Google Klingon? Yes it's true, you can click on this link and find Google's search page and results in Klingon. I think it's very cool of Google to create such a cool search method, which caters to devout Star Trek fans. I plan on sticking with my regular search method, but I'm more than willing to brush up on my basic Klingon terms, face it, it's fun.

LG has introduced a 'candybar incarnation' of its Shine slider phone, reports Reg Hardware and like the glamorous ISSE Monaco Phones from Nokia, it will only be available in Russia for a while.

It's unclear when the Shine Bar - as the non-slider is known - will make it to the rest of Europe and beyond, says Reg Hardware.

Expect it to pack in a 262,144-color, 240 x 320 display; a two megapixel camera with auto-focus; Bluetooth; 50MB of user-accessible memory; and a Micro SD slot for up to 2GB of add-in storage space.

As design, fashion and gadget lovers we seem to always be searching for the best, biggest (or littlest) and brightest product that is going to change our life. We naturally crave the newest iPod model, big screen TV or camera, but where is the line where the popular gadgets of the moment and personal technology merge and how do we find gadgetry that truly meets our long-term individual needs?

Wired recently interviewed Industrial Designer Branko Lukic, who is working to develop and license products that will be "treasured not because of their specifications, but because they make the owner happy to own it." The idea, which Branko details in his upcoming book "Nonobject," is about the "space between you and the object" and while it may seem esoteric to some, points to an exciting, interactive and deeply personal trend in technology. Lukic, who says his interest in design sprung from his desire to "make the world around me a better place," told Wired:

In the 20th century, we were focused mostly on the practical, utilitarian side of design, and later we were driven by technological advancements, marketing and business plans. In the 21st century, instead of design just fulfilling the basic needs, doing certain things or resolving particular problems, people will seek deeper, greater and longer lasting product experiences. nonobject benefits from not being constrained, as compared to design practice today, which benefits from being constrained.
