Except for the 9-point socket, the Rozetkcus is also available in a 16 points version.

Named after the famous Italian medieval traveler Odoric of Pordenone, the “Odorico” expandable caravan looks good, functions good, and announced especially ideal for travel use. Its unique expandable architecture makes it transformable too, so it may change its shape and function in different ways according to its user’s needs. But pity it’s not real yet, still waiting for some company to license it and put it into production.
Once realized that more and more bird are getting injured by skyscrapers in cities, an architecture studio “Stone Design” has decided to build the Urban Aviary, a tall building especially designed for birds that not only offers a house but can help to bring down the death rate. It will be located in Central Park, New York, standing at 1,050,000 square feet. It will let birds build nests outside the building because of the presence of vegetation and food inside the structure. Besides, a strong beam of light will be built to attract the birds so that they can give up other high buildings which may result in hurt to them.
Love playing with your iPad, but never mind what kind of sleeve or stand it is using? No, I couldn’t stand my iPad wearing something ugly, so I decide to buy it this smart Stand Sleeve (if the gadget will finally come into the market). It features a fashionable appearance, with a combination of bright white and red. Besides, the design utilizes an ingenious folding technique & magnets too, to conveniently shift it between a sleeve and a stand.
Climbing up the rock … to live in the Barcelona Rock Hostel designed by Polish architecture firm UGO is one of my goals for the next following years (if the concept will finally come into reality). The proposed building will feature real rocks on its exterior, while coming with fifty rooms, movie theater, spa, cafe, swimming pool, gym, bar and even shops inside. Thus whenever the rock climbers need a rest, they may either check into the Barcelona Rock Hostel or simply spent the night on the “mountain” using special equipment. So do you like it? Hopefully we’ll soon meet there in the Barcelona Rock Hostel.

How popular do you think the Facebook is? Normally we’re no longer contented with using it for most time of the day, as we’re in big favor of sleeping with Facebook! You got it? We need a Facebook Bed simply the same as this one designed by Tomislav Zvonaric. It’s amazing, combining almost all features of the Facebook website, but so pity that it’s merely a concept at the time.

Honestly we seldom see laptop bags redesigned with many new functions, not to mention a bag that actually serves as a charger as well. This amazing design comes from Brad Ascalon, which utilizes wireless charging technology to convert a laptop bag into a charging machine. Now have a look at the bag: its inner tray is in fact the charger and its carrying strap actually contains USB male connector at one end and a plug on the other. So once connect the strap end to another computer or an electrical outlet, and then you can get your laptop recharged wirelessly. That’s not all! The same USB port allows the laptop bag to work as a thumb drive on its own too.
Hot egg is the most popular food in my family whenever the winter comes, as it not only warms my hands but also warms my stomach. It’s a pity that the eggs cannot keep hot for a long time, and they usually become cold after my way to offices. Thus I need something to reheat them. The ultra-portable Heater Egg Card seems like a good choice. It utilizes a wire-web and thin skin that envelops the egg to reduce heating time; features a collapsible casing that can be folded as thin as a credit card, thus to ensure us an easy carrying; still, it also comes with a USB charging style, which makes it practical in places without an electricity outlet.
