About Paul Spoerry
I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.
I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.
I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.
I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.

No more digging to the bottom of the can for the very last crumbs! hehe
Carmelyne Thompson says
Or a push up bottom works too.
Denver Prophit Jr. says
Just like the ice cream stick aye? Those orange push-ups
Paul Spoerry says
Either way… I shouldn't have to pass it to my 10 year old to get me more without dumping it upside down. Man hands can't fit in those things!
Denver Prophit Jr. says
I saw videos on +YouTube about making an extended wi-fi antenna out of a pringles can! heh
Jeff MG says
I am an engineer in the paper tube industry. I can make this happen for you.
Paul Spoerry says
+Jeff MG You'd be a millionaire! Go for it!
Denver Prophit Jr. says
Does pringles even have a brand page? +Pringles have we got neeeews for uuuu. =)
Jeff MG says
Shhhh… Don't tell them let me patent it first 😉
25energie says
I dont want pay more for this…
Kirk Sherrod says
just turn the can over? they dump right out? #goplusyourselves
Jeff MG says
In general a twist up assembly for paper tube isn't a bad idea. I don't recall ever seeing one. We do make one with a push up disk for things like lip balms.
CatStarSTO says
They would only charge you more for the gimmick and put less in the tube!
Dominic Desbiens says
I vote for this
Kirk Sherrod says
How about they team up with NERF and shoot them into each others mouths? #NERFpringleShooter
Carmelyne Thompson says
The solutions proposed here probably pose the problem of jeopardizing the vacuum seal on the can. A simple ribbon tag that you can tug up is probably the cheapest way too, and seal is still in tact.
Lee Forest says
They would have to put holes in the chips to make it work.
Abdulmnem Benaiad says
This + a glass at the bottom = Awesome Telescope
Alistair Ewen says
I think they should put them in bags, and then they woudn't have an excuse to charge extortionate prices !!
Bearman Cartoons says
Or I shouldn't have fat hands haha
Ender Şimşek says
Thank you so much my dear friend ! I wish you all the Best ! God Bless You !
Nicandros Nicolaou says
This mechanism has an axle in the middle… Pringles with a hole?
George A Dovall says
For some reason the ones on the bottom are always so hard to reach but that's about to change..
Lynda c. karmashadow karmadreaming says
Paul, I can think many "items" that could benefit from such a mechanism! Like a car jack for a non smutty instance – you could patent it if you called it something else! Imagine not having to scoop down to the bottom of a tub of B&J icecream? Spoons with long handles aren't always on hand… Obviously prosthetics are an option -,OK ENUFF said, lmao!
Lynda c. karmashadow karmadreaming says
My worse half gets himself upset if he thinks I'm making concealed digs about his member!
Carlos Brown says
No a spiral pushing a platform on with the Pringles sot
Paul Spoerry says
OMG these comments rock. This is why I love G+. You guys are amazing!
Kenny Laidlaw says
+Carmelyne Thompson has the simplest, cheapest and quickest solution. A simple ribbon with 'Pringles' written on it attached to the lid on one side, then the can on the other. The ribbon simply runs down to the bottom of the can and around the curve of the pringle and back up again. The chips rise up by simply pulling the lid away from the tin.
As a plus, you also don't have to hunt for the lid. Assuming you can actually stop, once you have popped.
Kenny Laidlaw says
OK. One word of warning!
Don't use an elasticated bit of ribbon. Once they Pop, they go everywhere!
NishaChan V says
omg that would be so amazing!!
