Clubhouse Studios - Secret Resolutions

Let's be honest, no one ever sticks to New Year's resolutions. They're the sweet little lies we tell ourselves about the future, shining ideals that are quietly chucked by the second week of January.

But no more. Sign up with Secret Resolutions with a group of mates and let one of them secretly assign you a New Year's Resolution. It's like Secret Santa, but for good intentions instead of novelty tat.

OKO

Beautiful geometry and maps.

Taxi Stockholm - Taxi Trails

Smart idea to aggregate local hotspots.

[fuelforthoughts]

Spotify - Serendipity

Map visualisation showing people who played the same song at the same time on Spotify.

The Colours of Motion

Colour analysis of famous movies, presented nice and clean.

Etienne de Crecy - Hashtag My Ass

Interactive music video using your Instagram photos. Very well executed.

Retail in Real-time

Pretty much what the title says.

Delta - Photon Shower

Heard about this last year when it was in development. They're looking to launch them in airport lounges across the globe. Go science!

MotionSavvy

Start-up that uses Leap Motion to bridge the communication gap between deaf and hearing people. Really smart.

Virgin America - Redesigned site & service

Some nice ideas implemented in this service design piece. Refreshing to see it being done rather than the endless flight concepts that seem to be doing the rounds, squarking the same shit.

Clever Buoy

Shark Detection buoy that uses sonar to identify sharks in coastal waters, and alerts via SMS or Google+ to those who have signed up. Nice parallax site to promote it too.

Trolldor - Twitter Troll Catcher

Based on what it assesses it should probs be called 'Botdor', but nicely presented.

Nivea - Sun Kids

Nice use of low-powered bluetooth to track kids on the beach through a tagged bracelet acquired from a print ad.

PowaTag - Buy-Anywhere

One to keep an eye on if they can get critical mass with customers and retailers. It combines QR, Barcode, audio services like Shazam-TV, and product recognition technologies into 1 platform and application, so shoppers don't have to jump around to different apps.

Also, kinda related. I used Flypay last week in Wahacca and it was awesome.

Gofor - Uber for Drones

Order a drone on demand to complete a variety of useful tasks.

CNA - Speaking Exchange

Great idea to partner those wanting to learn English, with elderly Americans that are looking for people to talk to.

SuperShoes

Great insight and execution for an alternative way of discovering the world around you.
