This flexible Space Invaders keyboard is retro goodness. It comes in two color schemes - white with red graphics or black with white graphics. ”Bendiboards are practically indestructible waterproof keyboards, which can be washed… Lightweight, ultra-slim, and compact, you can roll it up and take it anywhere with you making it ideal for use with laptops. The soft material allows a quick, reflexive typing action that is silent and more comfortable than traditional hard, plastic keyboards. The flexible flat design also offers ease in typing which eliminates negative-angle stress to your wrists.” I just bought two! [Image via BoingBoing]

Sometimes a site’s palette just doesn’t work for you, or you might have special eyesight or color blindness that makes reading on dark colors difficult.  As a web geek, I’ve been using my trusty “toggle CSS stylesheets” browser favelet from Tantek to strip the site of all styles, returning it to a state of default black font on a white browser background. Alex Payne’s twitter above leads to the Zap Colors bookmarklet posted on Russell Beattie’s blog. Zap Colors also makes the text on a page black and the background white but keeps the style formatting of the original page.
