the downside is that you have to be using a flat surface for the constrained ball to produce a strait line, and i find i get a lot of paper reading accomplished on the bus these days, or leaning back in my chair with my feet up.

constrained ball
while its true that the name is unfortunate, this innovation is certainly very clever. the "constrained ball" is a drawing aid created by korean designer giha woo. you attach it to a pen and are then able to draw straight lines across a whole page without accidentally crossing out the neighboring couple lines, inevitably, by accident!

Interesting concept but yes I can see the downside. Dy paper reading is always while I'm walking very briskly down a street, can't really stop and roll so to speak :)
I knew there was interesting science behind McDonald's' food not spoiling!

Oh yeah, straight lines are neat too.
