Find the Color of Your Aura With the Colorstrology iPhone App
Remember the fab Colorstrology website from Pantone? They've made it into a totally free iPhone App!

Pizza Flash Drive: Love It or Leave It?
I'm always worried that my standard memory sticks will get lost in the shuffle of my desk and drawers because of how plain and boring they are. Sure, I know I can get some brightly colored Pantone USB sticks and other cute ones, but I tend to just grab whatever has the space I need, not thinking about distinctive design.

If A Little Color Goes A Long Way, Where's The Variety?
Note to designers and gadget manufacturers: Some of us are sick and tired of candy-colored MP3 players, cameras and cell phones.
Apple's announcement that the new iPod nano will come in silver, black, blue, green and red and the shuffle will come in silver, mint green, turquoise, lavender and magenta (those are my descriptions of the colors, not theirs!) got me thinking about the fact that almost all gadgets in the US are either staple colors like white, silver and black or bright — almost juvenile — hues of red, blue, pink and green.
Where, my friends, are all the fall colors like orange and yellow, or the muted, retro colors?

Love 2.0: Heather Champ and Derek Powazek
If we’re to believe pop culture, a Beauty and a Geek can fall in love in six episodes, teach each other to dress and balance their checkbooks and combine to make the perfect pair. It may not be that easy in the real world, but there are plenty of beautifully geeky couples that continue to inspire us with their innovative ideas and contributions to the technology and resources we use everyday. As part of our Geeks We Love series, I caught up with a few couples that, through the beauty of the internet and technology have influenced both our lives and each other in a wonderful way.
