Hi-Tech Shoes For Ladies Have Heel Height Extenders

11:00AM Matt Hickey | Thankfully just a concept for now, the Goodie 2 Shoe is an idea in function, and definitely not in form. They’re ugly, sure, but they have a neat trick: the heel is adjustable with magnets and hidden hinges, so a 1.5-inch heel suitable for work gets extended to a come-hither 3.5-inch for going out. Other parts can be customised, much like the latest Sidekick. Personally, we’d be confused if we saw an attractive lady in these shoes. It shows she’s got a geek’s mind, but also a geek’s taste, which is not always what we’re looking for. Still, we hope these appear on Lady Robocop in the 2010 remake. [Crave] More »

The Digi Makeover, Because it’s Hard To Say ‘You’re Not Pretty Enough’

4:05AM Ben Longo | GirlTech, a company clearly run by mean little boys, brings us the Digi Makeover. Basically it’s like a cheap PDA, but instead of keeping track of appointments, it shows you how to be less ugly. All you have to do is snap a quick head shot with the included camera, and poof, you’re ready to go. By utilising the touchscreen you can choose from over 50 hairstyles and colours, or even add jewelry. And just in case your daughter or her friends have any self-esteem left, the Digi Makeover can also connect to your television for some big-screen critiquing. Now, that’s family entertainment.
