Or maybe there’s just other manufacturers I can’t find right now…

Well, I was going to do this thing on the fabulous Fingerworks TouchStream vs the new thing I found, but it’s turned into an obituary for Fingerworks – they must have priced themselves out of the market 🙁
Important note!
FingerWorks has ceased operations as a business.
Film inspired reality!
Garrick Hamm, Creative Director, Williams Murray Hamm and D&AD Education Chairman adds, “I always hope to come away from student judging with the names of a couple of new, exciting creatives, or a killer idea to share with the rest of my studio – but nothing prepared me for dog shit! Not only was this a clever, environmentally useful idea but it was extremely well thought through and the execution was slicker than an Italian racing driver. If these creatives haven’t got jobs by the end of the summer, please send me an email…but I have a funny feeling they will be busy
There supposed to be something on here as well

Screw Spaceship 1, go round the moon!
MOSCOW – A Russian rocket manufacturer is proposing sending space tourists on a ride around the moon for $100 million, and a top official of the nation’s space agency said the project could be viable.
Just slightly more expensive than going with Burt Rutan and Richard Branson on Virgin Galactic at $100m
Traffic cops not necessary
From his subordinates Yushchenko demanded – and received – a plan to dissolve the DAI and by the beginning of July the deed was done, the executive order signed.
Ukraine’s once-feared traffic police ceased to exist.
….
But that’s not the way it turned out. Drivers in the Ukrainian provincial cities of Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk and Lviv reported traffic was moving quite normally and most drivers were obeying regulations, even though there were few, if any, traffic cops around to enforce them.

Tall Building Fever
Notwithstanding 9/11, people are still hungry to build skyscrapers – and even more hungry to build the Worlds Tallest Building ™
Currently there are a whole load of projects ongoing, including arguments about whether antennae and spires count.
Here is a page with some of the more realistic projects described…
It’s an alien Ray Gun
ADS systems are a new class of nonlethal weaponry using 95 GHz-millimeter-wave directed energy. This technology is capable of rapidly heating a person’s skin to achieve a pain threshold that has been demonstrated by AFRL human subject testing to be very effective at repelling people, without burning the skin or causing other secondary effects.
Speeding cameras cause Fatalities?
Yup, in one of those wonderful studies I like, it turns out that:
Crashes are avoided by making a safe plan based on what you see. Cameras move attention away from hazards to speedometers
So the UK has stopped deploying them whilst it ponders this…
US backs a Nuclear India
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Bush, in a dramatic policy shift, promised India full cooperation on Monday in developing its civilian nuclear power program without demanding that it sign a major nuclear arms control treaty.
What about Pakistan? They sure won’t be happy… will this jeapordise the ongoing peace processes that are finally progressing in Kashmir?
A Secret Service
A Secret Service invites you to submit your passwords and a timestamp for storage on the Secret Service website. It is then translated (text-to-speech), automated and broadcasted via webradio and live at Mediamatic Groundfloor every hour on the time of your choice. Because nobody can know that this is your password or what the purpose is, this seemingly paradoxical way of storing something very secret and intimate in public space can be considered completely safe.
To guarantee the absolute safety of your information, Mediamatic will take advanced security measures to protect the server on which your passwords will be saved. You are invited to the festive OPENING on the 15th of July, where the safety of these measures will be on display. If you are thoroughly convinced by the safety, you are invited to place your most sensitive information in our care.
