Made by Kawaiideco, each glue-on fingernail sports an icon from those Portal test chamber instruction posters, to serve as a constant reminder of the daunting tasks before you. There’s even an icon for the cake, though unlike the posters in the game, the fingernail is quick to point out that the cake is a lie.

Now, as a guy, the whole idea of gluing things onto your body for fashion seems weird to me, but if you’re the type to cover up their natural fingernails with something like this, you can grab this set over on Etsy now for $15 (USD). If GLaDOS weren’t a potato, I’m pretty sure she’d wear them.

I jumped to Firefox and still use it sometimes when my Chrome browser acts up. But when I saw this Firefox Icon Pillow, I just knew I either had to have it (or hint to someone that I wanted it, since it’s almost Christmas already anyway.)

I might be using another browser right now, but I will forever remember Firefox as the first browser that gave me an enjoyable surfing experience on the web. (So much drama for a browser, I know.)

The Firefox Icon Pillow is available from an Etsy shop appropriately called Icon Pillows for $19.99 (USD).

These particular pixelated cartoons are the creation of Ty Lettau.

To date, he’s created 696 characters from cartoons, movies, and video games, all rendered in that pixelated feel. Highlights include Star Wars, Alien, Final Fantasy, all sorts of superheroes and more.

It’s kind of amazing how easily you can recognize these pixelated characters, despite the relative lack of detail. It just shows you that your brain really doesn’t need much information to distinguish different characters.

You can check out the entire Super Bros collection here.

The Command Key Ring was designed by FORMA Laboratories, and is available in a variety of finishes. Expect to pay $51(USD) for it in stainless steel, but the silver version costs $91 in matte and $101 in glossy finishes. There are also gold and bronze-plated versions for a bit less.

If the Command Key Ring isn’t your style, check out the other rings available in FORMA Laboratory’s shop on Shapeways. There’s the Power Icon Ring and the LEGO Brick Ring that both look pretty awesome.

Their handmade Google “GPillows” series includes icon pillows for Android (previously featured), GMail, the Google “g” and their latest addition, Chrome. I wonder if the Chrome pillow feels as soft as a cloud. It sure looks like it, and that would only be appropriate. Given their soft fleece shell and fluffy poly fill, I bet that’s the case.

You can grab all four Google pillows over at Craftsquatch’s Etsy shop, with prices ranging from $22 to $28 (USD). Apple fanboys, don’t despair, you can always fill your couch with some iPillows instead.

The pack contains a total of 30 highly detailed icons. deleket made them a couple of years ago though, so there are no icons of more recent tech like the DS or the Move.

You can preview all of the icons here. If you like what you see, go ahead and download the icons on deleket’s deviantART page. Want more console love on your PC? Check out the Console Font.

These very same icons were previously available as little notecards, but this time they’re available in sizes up to 30″ x 40″.  Being of generation OS X, I don’t have hands-on experience with any of these icons, but judging from their descriptions I’d think twice before buying the bomb icon, because it signified a system failure.

You can order these and more classic Mac icons from Susan Kare’s website. They each cost $89 (USD) up to $499 depending on the size. Each print will be signed and numbered by Kare in pencil. I bet none of the people who first used the Macintosh ever thought that the icons would be considered as works of art.

If you like to use digital stuff to take notes and write things as well, but occasionally have to hand write things out you will like the Icon notebook from Barcelona Spain’s BrigadaCreativa. This thing is sort of a symbol of the duality of writing today. It’s an old school paper notepad, but it looks like a digital icon you would find on a computer.

The notepad can be had in a three pack for about $24 (USD) or in a single for about $10. The pads have 80-pages inside and are DIN A5 size pages measuring 148mm x 210mm. The only downside if you need normal paper is that the folded over corner apparently means the pages are flat on one corner as well.

What I need is a new set of magnets, but not just any magnets mind you. I want magnets that anyone who walks in will see and know a geek lives here (as if they couldn’t tell by the gobs of gadgets in the house). The perfect magnets are these App Magnets from Jailbreak Toys.

These things look like the icons on the iPhone home screen, but are just different enough that Jobs and his legal ninjas might not pounce on the maker. Each little magnet is 7/8″ by 7/8″ and made of epoxy. You can get your own set right now for $12.99 (USD).

The set comes in a neat tin container, so it also makes for a great gift.

You can get the magnets at bearduck’s Etsy shop for $38 (USD). Cut & paste not included.

And look! You can even scrounge up RSS coasters if you want to do a whole decorative theme!

But we’re talking about pillows here, and at Craftsquatch’s Etsy store, you can get a whole passel of geeky pillows, from designs similar to the Adobe CS icon pillows featured here before to–look! It’s the adorable little Reddit alien.

The pillows may vary in price and design, but they’re all equally adorable.

Created by the designers over at Meninos, the set includes the familiar icons for various web syndication formats like RSS & XML. Each set includes a whopping 16 coasters, so you can give one to every guest at your next party. Or maybe one for each of your blog subscribers.

Each coaster is handmade from MDF plywood and wrapped with a custom cut vinyl decal. They’re then backed with an anti-slip rubber backing and coated with a varnish to protect the finish.

You can grab a set of the RSS coasters over at the Meninos store for $60 (USD).

While the watch was designed by Japanese design firm & design back in 2005, it only recently became available for purchase at MOMA. They only sell the black and white version, but a white-on-white version is also in production, according to & design’s website.

The watch is made of an ABS and stainless steel body with a polyurethane band. Pick one up for $75 from the MOMA store. Although, with those chunky watch hands, it looks like most of your time-telling would be at best an approximation.

While many of you will ask: why the heck would you want to go and do that? Dunno. Maybe Spec Works (the guy who made it) just wanted to prove it could be done.

The install comes complete with wallpapers, sliders, sound effects and over 90 Vista-themed icons for everything from the computer to the recycle bin, and all of the standard iPhone apps too. There’s even a simulated version of Vista’s Sidebar and familiar Start menu.

If you’re ready and willing to deface your glorious chrome and glass iPhone with Microsoft’s bloatware user interface, head on over to ModMyiFone for the full download and instructions. (Requires a Jailbroken iPhone, SSH access and SummerBoard).

The theme installs on BlackBerry 8700, Pearl, Curve and 8800 models, assuming you have at least OS 4.2.1 installed.

While the icons and interface aren’t identical to those on the iPhone, they’re similar enough to give you the same general look and feel. Even the battery and signal strength indicators are stylized versions of the iPhone UI elements. For areas where there wasn’t a clear parallel between iPhone and BlackBerry Mac OS X design standards were used (like using a beachball for the “busy” indicator).

Sorry, no multi-touch display or motion sensor is included.

All of your favorites are there: the smiling computer, the watch, the paint bucket and the dreaded bomb among others. The cards come in a pack of 10 and are available from the MoMAstore for about $4 a pack.
