The iPod too small to need a case, now has a case
There’s far from anything revolutionary about silicon iPod cases anymore. This one only merits comment because it’s for the new iPod shuffle: a device so small, it doesn’t need a case. The iPod shuffle is barely noticeable at all and has only one port and one switch to defend, so the Sumajin 3rd Gen iPod Shuffle Silicone Case seems a bit much.
For USD$14, you get 2 flip-top sleeves to prevent your shuffle from getting scratched or dinged. The cases come in 6 colors plus “glow in the dark” which may be the most useful one–it might help you find your shuffle if you lose it!
While I’ve gotten started recommending Layers Magazine’s Photoshop tutorials, I should point you to another one I found interesting. This tutorial by Mark Fleming brings a technique from photography’s chemical-ridden past into its pixel-rich present–cross processing.
As a break from all the CES iPod gadgetry overload you may be feeling, I thought I’d post a few simple apps that might brighten your day.
