10 Weird Inventions of 2011

The list of 10 weird inventions was not easy to establish, because of the immense number of possibilities.  Gadgets may not be primary in our lives but they surely help! Every year, clever guys come up with new ideas to make our life a little bit better.  Some are funny, others seem crazy; many are somehow useless.  Trying to come up with something original is not easy, nowadays when about everything was already invented. Therefore, we must appreciate the work and imagination of these people, who must have worked hard to bring us these concepts. From a world full of ideas, I picked up some cool inventions to showcase in this article, as an attempt of making your day better.

1. Pizza Scissors/Spatula

3. Futuristic toaster

This futuristic toasters is one of the best, though weird, inventions in this top. Why? Just because it looks really cool. And it was about time kitchen stepped into the future! However, there are 2 things I wonder: firstly, how is one supposed to take the slice out of there? I sure hope they thought about it! Secondly, does the device come with a two slices option as well?

4. Macbook…book skin
