What a novel idea!

Photos: Twelve South

When you purchase a MacBook, it kind of feels like you had a baby and will do anything you can to protect it...while I have never had a baby, I think that proud feeling & excitement is there nonetheless. My PowerBook is now 5 years old and the only tell that it's not new is a few scuffs & dents on the top of it (heartbreaking).

While a do have a neoprene case & like to make it my own by throwing some buttons on it, it just doesn't seem like it would really protect 'my baby' if I dropped it; which is why the hardcover on this vintage book inspired case has everything I have been looking for. Every one of BookBook's vintage literature cases are distressed to be unique and will be sure to be a conversation piece.

The $75-99 price tag IS a little steep, but is a great investment for something so dear to you. To get yours, visit the Twelve South website and make the crucial decision of ordering in either red or black.

Panorama-mania

Photos: Sony
It took me awhile to pay attention to the new Sony's commercial with Taylor Swift, but when I actually did, I became very excited to learn that this camera takes panoramic shots. These aren't like the old cameras that would take a wide angle photo of what is right in front of you. This cyber-shot camera allows you to physically sweep and take a ultra-wide, 270 degree shots in one click! It allows you to 'stitch' 100 photos in one second, giving you an incredible horizontal or vertical shot that looks like something the pros did.

I don't know about you, but I can't wait to get my hands on one and go on a few adventures.
