Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
An ingenious device that scans any message and displays it in midair.
Why we love it:
Your friend, co-worker, or loved one is secretly a spectacular artist, or possibly a genius comedian, or great thinker. The only problem is, it's so difficult for them to bring their gift to the world! There they are, scribbling out deep thoughts or sketching doodles that would make Picasso himself weep, and no one knows. Truly, they are a diamond in the rough. If only they had a way, a quick, and easy way (because genius or not, they can be pretty lazy) to share their brilliance with the world. It falls to you, to make sure the message gets out, to provide them with the incredibly handy LighTalk2. The LighTalk is a clever little device; just write whatever you want across a piece of paper, (black ink works best) and scan it with the LighTalk. Hold it up and swing it back and forth like an upside-down pendulum and you can see your message appear in midair, written in orange LEDs. You can even draw pictures, or create little animations and sketch your art across the air for everyone to see. Now everyone can know what incredibly clever things your friend has to say.
