Imagine an alarm clock that is so advanced, that it actually runs away from you if you don’t shut it off when its alarm rings!
This would be Clocky.
Invented at MIT by Gauri Nanda, Clocky even comes with a snooze button which works only one time. If you don’t actually turn off the alarm after it sounds just once, Clocky will start its wheels rolling (see photos) and go hide somewhere in your flat.
Obviously, an invention like Clocky gives new meaning to the expression: "Honey, can you get the alarm please?"
Lockable Coffee Cups
Even if you don’t drink coffee, you know the scenario -- at the office, someone is always "borrowing" your favorite coffee mug whenever you go to enjoy some java.
Now, with your own lockable coffee cup, you won’t have to worry about anyone stealing "your" mug anymore!
What makes this item so amazing, is that it actually comes equipped with a real lock. When its key is inserted, the hole is plugged and the cup can then be used to drink from.
To protect this mug from being used by anyone else, you simply turn the key and remove it, exposing the hole in the side of the cup, rendering it more or less useless.
