Wacom has just introduced a rather interesting product called Inkling. Kudos for coming up a product that mimics the tactile feeling of drawing.

It consist of a receiver that you clip to your drawing surface such as a notebook, and a Wacom ballpoint pen. While you're drawing, the receiver will record your lines — your drawing — and allow you to open them digitally after you transfer to your computer via USB.

The retail price is set to be US$199. I hope they don't charge ridiculous prices for their ink cartridge.

Would you buy it?

Lisa Occhipinti's book is about crafting, turning books into art objects, something like installation art. If you're looking for new uses for old books, why not turn them into art?
