I've heard of reading tea leaves...

But reading my morning toast is beyond my wildest imaginings. The "Scan Toaster" connects to a PC via a USB connector. You can (theoretically) download news, the daily racing sheet, the weather report, or whatever you can fit onto a piece of toast. This lovely toy is an entry in the 2008 Electrolux Design Lab competition. Click on the image for the scoop on how this gizmo actually works.



Thanks to my Twitter friend Linda for the tip!

Wow. That's cool.

And on an unrelated note, I broke my ankle last night! ick. I have to go have surgery tomorrow.

And sorry about your ankle!

You know the saying:
Toast makes the world go 'round.

Or something like that.
