A cleaner clean

So FtG fave Method came out with a new toilet bowl cleaner recently. Frankly, now that they've dropped Karim Rashid as their packaging designer, I had a hard time getting too excited, especially as I've been using Mrs. Meyer's eco-toilet bowl cleaner, which seems to work just fine. T Magazine's Samurai Shopper, on the other hand, must have gotten the press release, because there's a rundown of, well, clean cleaning products in the NYT's design magazine. Athough I've never seen the point of air fresheners, Method's aroma pill has a far cleaner (ha ha) look, at left. Wish they'd continue the line in that vein...

Continuing my (already-broken) vow not to buy any new products this year, I've bought a slightly used digicam off Craigslist. It remains to be seen whether the battery lasts any longer than the one on my old camera, but the LCD is certainly bigger. Now if only someone would sell me an industrial sewing machine...
