First up is a baby bottle attachment cleaner. Simple to use - put the kid’s bottles, pacifiers and small toys in and have them cleaned up […]

Perhaps you’re thinking that # should be higher, but then again, this
isn’t really surprising, is it? After all, 2012 is only a few years
away, and even in the country of the Internet’s birth (the US), uptake is less
than 75%.
Appropriately enough, the highest growth will be in high economic growth/’emerging’ countries like China, Russia, India […]

In a somewhat surprising, yet not so surprising move, Nokia bought up the rest of Symbian that it didn’t already own and will open-source the cell phone OS platform. Why? This is the strategy du jour in this age of Linux vs Microsoft, and now Android (Linux basically) vs iPhone/Win Mobile/Blackberry.

I must agree with Morgan Webb - the Gizmodo venture down into the Lego vault that has every single Lego set ever made is truly amazing, and even though it’s only 2 minutes long, this video totally captures my childhood Lego memories.
What’s even more remarkable is how the author and myself almost have […]

As an IT guy myself, I do find it rather telling when a prominent business partner of Microsoft’s, Intel, has decided that they’re not going to ‘upgrade’ to Windows Vista. I can’t say that I blame them. The change isn’t compelling and according to most reports, more of a pain than a benefit.
For those home […]

Are you used to writing your To Dos straight onto the palm of your hand? If that just ‘works’ for you, then you should take a look at the To-Do Tattoo which lets you make a very nice, neat To Do list and applies it the palm of your hand with a skin-safe, washable ink […]

It’s not all that often you come across a deal that is worthy of a second look, but today I found an 8GB flash drive for only $22. That’s not bad. I will admit, my current flash drive (I have lots but only use one most frequently) is only 2GBs and seems to be holding […]

Although it’s just a concept, an idea, the Lilypad elicits a ‘wow’ when you see the artist-imagined images. The idea is relatively simple - a floating city that can hold about 50,000 people that is self-sustaining. Why? Well, what if the oceans do rise and we lose a lot of existing landmass, particularly with all […]
