Sticky Time Printer Friendly Version
Here is my idea of how always keep the track of time if you dislike a conventional wristwatch (in my case it makes my wrist itchy, so i dont wear it :)).
How about a sticky small lcd display that can be glued onto eyeglasses, in the left top corner of the lens for example. The electronics with a battery can be attached to the frame where it is not visible (this can be made so small nowadays, so it is not a big problem), and connected by a wire to the lcd. The lcd should be small enough to not block the view. Also it should be easily installed by anyone and easily removed.

Labelling Garments and Footwear with Measures of Durability Printer Friendly Version
Cheap garments and footwear often wear out very quickly, so the savings made by consumers are illusory - they soon need to be replaced.
Can we develop scientifically based measurements of the durability of garments and footwear, and include this information on labels? Then when shopping we can compare the durability of these items as well as the price.
This would also force manufacturers to compete on durability as well as price. In Australia where I live the market has been flooded with cheap garments and footwear, and many companies who may have produced good quality long lasting products have gone out of business. If such firms had a means of competing on durability as well as price, they might retain a greater share of the market and stay in business.

Mini Printer Printer Friendly Version
When one wants just one label or neat printing on a small piece of card or paper currently one has to print on a large sheet and then cut-away the unwanted paper. Have you ever tried to print on a post-it sheet, impossible.
So how about a small computer printer designed to allow one-off prints of small labels, cards etc., of a maximum size of say a post-it sheet. Not a feed-through type printer, but designed maybe so that you could place the card or slip of paper on the base of the printer and then the hinged printing mechanism is brought into contact with the card/paper. This would avoid the problem larger printers have with small pieces of paper/card being too small in size or too thick for the feed rollers. The printer need only be capable of black printing.
