The Fun-O-Meter

Posted by Miss Cellania in Pictures on July 12, 2008 at 4:55 pm



Alex posted a picture of the Idea Machine the other day, and now we know who’s behind it! Jake Bronstein of Zoomdoggle planted the Fun-O-Meter (also known as the Robofun, the Fun Idea Machine, or Funulator).

I hadn’t planned on posting the details this early, but as some other sites somehow got wind of the project early (I’m not mad, I should’ve figured, I watched dozens of people photograph it), the time is now.

Jake has taken the Fun-O-Meter to many locations around New York City. And it’s more of a bargain than you thought -for 50 cents, you get an idea, a standard coin-machine toy, a 25 cent rebate, AND a lucky penny you can leave for someone else to find! Zoomdoggle has more pictures. You’ll also find some “free ideas” in the sidebar. Link -Thanks, Jake!

    Ah, so it's movable!

    This is pretty cool, though. The quarter rebate is pretty funny, too.

    awwww, I've always loved jake bronstein and I was disappointed when he stopped his blog but it's good to see that he's still out there having fun and entertaining others.

    Curiosity wins over real interest of having a funny idea.

    How...wacky. I feel like I should be cynical about stuff like this, but ultimately, it just makes me smile.

    I actually think this guy is a douchebag but this idea is fun.

    Does the "revelation" really matter? Are people supposed to know who this dork is?

    Oh - it was Jake, good old Jake. Always up to SOMEthing wacky.
