Water Bobble – Bottle With Filter

I posted a couple of news whith interesting design for bottled water, one of which was missing some volume to share with dry lands, while another one’s (Water For Water) profit was aimed at implementing various water projects in developing countries.
Now, there’s another interesting design from Karim Rashid.
PSFK reports about Water Bobble:

Buzz On Google Buzz

So, the new service from Google is out, called Google Buzz. It was coming, I guess, considering the growing shift towards social media, and the falure of the giant to get a firm hold of this market.
