Players rank their own magic spells by experimenting with code in the game.
The game provides a coding interface where you can specify exactly what your spells will do.
This interface is intuitive enough.
For individuals young and old, who have never coded before.
Newcomers can learn by coding pre made cells using a drag and drop language, that makes the learning process pretty simple.
While more advanced users can experiment with writing their own.
Code Spells is currently being offered as a reward for a minimum pledge of $10 on Kickstarter.

The Phorce Bag features three USB ports connected to a powerful high capacity battery, that can.
Fully charge a laptop one time or restore a smartphone battery 10 to 12 times.
The Phorce connects to an app for iOS or Android via Bluetooth and tells you how much battery life is left in your Phorce bag and will also notify you if you left your bag unattended when you get too far away from it.
The bag can be configured to work as either a messenger bag, backpack or briefcase.

For the Mac version.
The Movpak is another break through in bag technology.
It is actually a backpack skateboard hybrid for the young hip professional on the go.
The built in skateboard is electric boasting a top speed of 15 miles per hour.
The skateboard is easily folded up into the compartment with.
In the backpack, and unfold simply with one hand.

Let's just call this the Kickstarter episode because the Fresh Air Plus is a Kickstarter project that replace your old boring techless.
Smelly toilet seat with a futuristic toilet seat that has a built in exhaust fan designed to capture and safely vent unpleasant odors outside your house.
The seat has a sensor that detects when someone is sitting on it, which triggers the fan to turn on.
The toilet contains state of the art anti slam technology.
And gently lowers the lid for you after use.
The only draw back to the Fresh Air Plus toilet seat are that you need a power outlet in your bathroom to plug it in and you will also need to install or connect seat span output to a ventilation hole in your bathroom wall or ceiling.
The Fresh Air Plus is currently available for the early bird price of $180 on Kickstart.
Why spend the money on buying more and more products to make the air in your bathroom smell better?
Wouldn't you prefer something that makes your bathroom smell fresh forever?
I would like to introduce you to the Fresh Air Plus.
The newest innovation in toilets.
