DODO iPad Case Saves Bookbinding in San Francisco

by editor on 18. Aug, 2010 in news

San Francisco, California – The DODO iPad case is made by an endangered breed, the San Francisco bookbinder. As the popularity of iPads, Kindles, and e-books grows many are lamenting the end of the traditional paper book. DODOcase is doing its small part to help protect the art of bookbinding from extinction by adapting the art form to a new niche, the iPad case.

The DODO iPad case is built by hand using traditional bookbinding techniques so it looks and feels just like a paper book. At last count there were only three commercial bookbinders left in San Francisco. DODOcase is helping these last remaining San Francisco bookbinders rise from the ashes by making its iPad case locally.

Gabi Hanoun, Owner of Cardoza-James Binding has been a book binder for 40 years and has witnessed first hand the fall of the bookbinding and print industry in San Francisco. “We started this business in 1958, and at our peak had 75 employees, but in the 80′s and 90′s we had to downsize because we lost a lot of business. We were at five employees, including me, until we landed the DODOcase business.”

Now Cardoza and James is hiring with a staff of over 15 bookbinders. Gabi sees a bright future for his business and the bookbinding industry in San Francisco. He recently started teaching his daughters the family business so one more generation will carry the art of bookbinding into the future. If you love technology and books get yourself a DODO iPad Case and do your part to save the art of bookbinding from extinction.

AutoCrush: Automated I Am Crushing Your Head – Hands-Free Fun

by editor on 15. Aug, 2010 in news

Rochester, New York – Who doesn’t like to play “I’m crushing your head!”… Nobody, that’s who! But sometimes it can be tiring. Let AutoCrush, No Tie Software’s newest app, automate the finger flexing action, and give your hand a rest!

Using the iPhone’s built-in camera, users aim to select an opponent to crush. Options include crushing or pinching, male or female hands, on, off, or slow.

Inspired by the hilarious “The Kids in the Hall” routines, AutoCrush goes above and beyond by offering Crushing and Pinching, and in the next free update, Squeezing!

The update, already submitted to Apple, also includes hilarious audio clips, selected at random just by touching the preview area.

AutoCrush was released August 14th, 2010 and is available exclusively on the iTunes App Store for $0.99 (or equivalent). AutoCrush requires an iPhone as it uses the built-in camera for viewing your opponent. The update will allow iPod touch and iPad users to pinch/crush/squeeze using an included image instead of using the camera view.

AutoCrush may reduce the likelihood of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by eliminating repetitive gestures. If you suffer from Arthritis, your doctor may prescribe AutoCrush. Use as directed. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery while using AutoCrush. Please consult your doctor if you plan to begin a regimen of finger crushing. Side effects include compulsive laughing, wetting one’s pants and getting beat up by “crushed” citizens. If your AutoCrush session lasts more than three hours, call some friends.
