Last week’s coolest gadget and $50 winners are…

by Al in Coolest Gadget of the Week, Gadget Competitions


The winner of last week’s coolest gadget competition is the World’s First Energy Generating Revolving Door.

Finding sources for sustainable, clean energy is a high priority across the world. By placing special generators in a revolving door, Boon Edam has created the world’s first energy generating revolving door. This unique door generates power each time someone enters or leaves the building.

Congrats again to Coated.com.

Wi-Fi Touch Screen Picture Frame
In second place we have the Wi-Fi Touch Screen Picture Frame.

Unlike other digital photo frames that just accept memory cards and show photos, the iGala has a brain inside its rectangular head. Use the touchscreen interface to configure the iGala to connect to your wi-fi network, then the iGala can do all kinds of smart things like login to a Gmail account and display any e-mailed photos on its hi-res 800×600 screen.

Shuriken Magnets
Finally in third place comes the Shuriken Magnets.

I can’t think of a better way to leave a message on the fridge than making it appear like it was pinned their with a shuriken. Sure there is no way on earth that a shuriken could actually stick into a refrigerator, but suspend disbelief and enjoy the optical illusion. These things look great, a perfect (though somewhat pricey) stocking stuffer.
