Cool Stuff | Fridgelingo Chinese Fridge Magnets

April 21st, 2009

While I’m aware that its usually a little skeezy promoting your own stuff, this is actually quite a cool product that we designed in-house.

iWantOne.cn has some cool Fridge Magnet sets for those wanting to learn Chinese (or English).

Fridge Lingo :: Set #1 - Talking to your Ayi

The first set is available now, and includes phrases useful for talking to your ayi.

The idea came about from a client – who asked why we didn’t put some English translation on our Shanghainese or Mandarin badges.
(Yes, we do have a Grass Mud Horse badge, for those that read the New York Times).

I thought about it for a while, and remembered the fridge poetry craze from a few years ago, and had the seminal idea to make a magnet set with Chinese, English and Pinyin translations.

A month or three and many prototypes later, we finally had a product.

That my i could also finally tell the Ayi to clean under the sofa was also a bonus!
