binary birthday to you
Melt seven candles together for the Binary Birthday Candle: “The only birthday candle you’ll ever need.” Designed to be suitable for birthdays from ages 1 to 127. Oskay has even posted a walkthrough for making your own.
(Needless to say, the geeks responding to his blog post have gone wild with feature requests.)
There’s also the more obvious approach, clear from across the room. Who hasn’t gotten an “I AM 2″ badge and an “I AM 1″ badge and put them together for someone’s twenty-first? No, just me then? Never mind.
