    Remember those customized children's books that the rich kids in school used to get, featuring a story with their name and face pasted onto the pages? It turns out that these things are still going, but now the companies that make them are harnessing the power of the internet to make them even more personal. Lost My Name is a UK company that's launching a new customized book, entitled The Intergalactic Journey Home that incorporates information like satellite images of the kid's home. That way, the star of the show will actually fly over their own home during the dramatic conclusion of the book. Cool, huh?
