Awesome Bar Fridge Shaped Like A HP dx2355 AMD-Based Desktop

3:35PM Nick Broughall | What’s better than a bar fridge? A bar fridge shaped like a PC. The guys at HP sent us one of these last week for Christmas, and we just got the chance to unbox it today. As you can see from the photo, there’s even blue LED lights on the front and a bottle opener built into the design. The USB ports look a little fake up close (they are fake), but on the whole the entire thing looks fantastic… Bonus pic proving its fridge-ness below: More »

Your Fridge Gets the Forest Effect with Leaf Magnets

6:30AM Gizmodo US Edition | Forget fridge magnet poetry— you know you only used it to make up smutty phrases anyway—stick these fridge leaves on that boring metal door, and you’d have your own indoor forest. Granted it would be much more “lovely” if it was made of real leaves not plastic ones, but I reckon they’ve got a charm all of their own. Designer Richard Hutten created them for office ceilings in a Rotterdam museum, and now they’re being commercialised. No word on pricing or availability yet.

Backpack Fridge For High Tech Picnic Action

10:15AM Sean Fallon | Coolers get the job done, but you have to deal with ice and the fact that the bulky boxes are often awkward to carry. I’m lazy, which means that I want to get my beer from point A to point B as easily as possible (and I’m not willing to ride a Cruzin Cooler to do it.) The “Boxcooler” concept from designer Sebastian Bertram offers a stylish solution with a backpack cooled by refrigeration. More »

Hang Knives, Pets or Anything You Want From Your Fridge With Endo

7:30AM Matt Buchanan | My grandma just cleaned 10 years’ worth of useless magnetic crap off of her fridge, revealing its marbled surface for the first time I can remember. The Endo magnetic clips make me wanna cover it in crap all over again. They only support a pound, so you can’t string up a small child, or anything with real heft, unless you grab like 50 of them, which is pricey at $10 for a pack of three. [Endo via Gadget Lab] More »
