ipod

A couple of years ago my son, Ashley, and I started a little business from home selling a soft cover for the ipod, a grey sweatshirt Hoodie. It was a steep learning curve in online selling, from the design, patenting the design, dealing with a manufacturer, quality control, setting up a website and publicity. Our biggest coup was getting it on the Gadget Show, Tom Dunmore the editor-in-chief of Stuff magazine declared it to be his favourite ipod cover. When David Cameron said "Hug a Hoody" we sent him one, we never missed an opportunity!

These arrived today, new packaging for approval. The company SLAM are now taking over the ipod Hoodies. Ashley felt he had taken the Hoodies as far as he could. They should be in outlets soon. Have a look at some of the other products they sell at SLAM A little quirky! They will either make you smile or wince.

Ashley just downloaded this application for his ipod touch. Imagine gazing into a pond of crystal water. You run your fingers across the cool surface of the pond. Water ripples away from your touch. The Koi, disturbed, dart away. Only to forget and to swim close to you once more. There are ambient sounds of water and to feed the fish just shake it. It's very calming and it only cost 59p from Apple.
