Honda’s Super New Speedo
Honda has come up with a very elegant addition to the concept of speedometer-ing:
Using color to indicate to users if their driving style is fuel efficient.
This looks bright enough to light up a fair bit of the cabin, so I imagine this would also be very useful as an indicator to users of their speed so the glow can be an indication to them even without have to look at the numbers.
The only nit I have to pick with this concept is that it glows blue when you’re being lead footed. Not sure if the color is all that suitable. I’d think red for planet destruction?

What’s up with the super sized iframes!
So I’ve recently purchased a Sigma DP1.
Being excited to receive it, I joined the DP1 group in Flickr and came across the link to a Korean review of the camera.
I’ve noticed this before with some other Korean sites, that the like to use GIANT iframes, and I mean HUGE that contain even longer pages.
IE7 typically blocks out most of the content, but in Firefox the result is that it becomes crazy difficult to keep track of where you are on a page.
Must be seen to be believed
