Hey hey – here’s a use for a hockey puck that I can relate to. It’s a bit of a ‘customized’ puck, serving as quite an effective looking iPad stand. Here’s a little bit of the story behind it:
Canadian iPad user @canadianipad (Twitter) has created an extremely ingenious stand for their iPad. By spending $0.99 and utilizing some skill with a cutting tool, @canadianipad has designed an iPad stand made from a hockey puck!
I am a huge sports fan – football (of both the real, beautiful game variety and the NFL flavor), basketball, baseball, boxing, and lots more – but one I’ve never got into at all is hockey. Partly because I could never skate to save my life so never played it as a kid, and also because I just never found it a compelling game to watch. I do love this use of a puck though. :)

Don't go hating on hockey. ;)
Can't help it. Hockey showed it hated me by making me a complete clod of a skater. :)
This is cool. Pucks are heavy and will keep the pad from falling over. Yet small enough to not cover much. Very nice!
Yeah it really does seem a good idea.
