This is a website that I got from infosthetics and basically the idea of this website is to introduce the world to smart technology street signs. [breakfastny.com] This website is by a futuristic product development studio Breakfast is a new kind of street sign that dynamically rotates towards the direction of the real-time content it is showing.
The directional street sign consists of 3 separate arms pointing in different directions, each containing a LED display that shows specific text or graphics about a nearby destination. Depending on the actual location of the content it displays, each arm is able to rotate endlessly around 360� degrees. The content varies depending on what passers-by select via a list of buttons, ranging from public transport arrival times nearby to the content and actual location of Twitter messages. I think that this is a great idea and the fact that it is very hands on to the public with the touch of a finger make sit very interesting. According to how much I know theres nothing that I would change yet.

This website is a game of that is used as a reinterpretation of a pinball machine as a “design tool”.After a grid-like poster is placed on top of the pinball machine, players are invited to create their own, personal poster-size drawings. By playing the machine, the balls create an unpredictable pattern, which is dependent on the interaction between the player and the machine. As a result, better players can achieve better posters. This is a really interesting way to be creative and have fun at the same time. One thing that I would change about this site is to allow players to play on line rather than only in person.
This is a Social media advertising firm DBB, in collaboration with PKP (Polish State Railways), developed a public, electronic timetable that communicates the departure time, destination, platform and waiting time to commuters at Warsaw Central Station.
However, the waiting time is not measured in minutes or hours, but in hamburgers, cokes and fries one could eat before your train leaves. Consequently, the longer one needs to wait, the more menu items show up on the screen. If a specific train is delayed, the timetable adds menu items accordingly, which can be consumed in a McDonalds restaurant conveniently located only 50 meters away.
