REVIEW – Everyone in my family has traded in privacy for convenience. We all share our location with Google and each other, we have smart devices listening to us throughout our house and we don’t kid ourselves that our phones aren’t eavesdropping all the time. When the Invoxia GPS tracker came up for review, I …
REVIEW – There comes a time in a woman’s life when she thinks she might spontaneously combust for a period of 3-5 minutes, several times a day. I can attest that it isn’t pleasant, and I really wish it involved burning a lot of calories, although I don’t think it does. There is no apparent …

REVIEW – One day a few years ago my campus went into lockdown for seven hours. Nothing happened other than a bit of panic, the local police getting some practice and some very ruined trashcans, but there was a lot of turn taking at the power outlets in the room. After that experience, I try …
REVIEW – I’m convinced that every struggling actor who isn’t waiting tables in Los Angeles is a headshot photographer, and yet, like a five-year-old, trying to pull it together for a real headshot is way too much work for me. At the same time, I also feel like you are your own best PR person, …

NEWS – Last month I reviewed a sleep patch that measures all kinds of things while you sleep called Tatch. It wasn’t available to consumers yet, but it was a cool piece of technology that tracked your sleep and included a consultation with a sleep specialist who could interpret the data. Now anyone can get …
REVIEW – OK, so I know most people come to the Gadgeteer to read about super high-tech stuff that will revolutionize your life, but as a crafter, this cordless glue gun sets you free! No longer do you have to huddle by a power outlet or string extension cords through your house (hello, tripping hazard!) …

REVIEW – California is known for a lot of things (most of them awesome) but one thing that isn’t so super is our air quality. The smog situation has improved a lot over the years, and people would probably think that there isn’t much left to burn in California, but it’s a big place and …
REVIEW – I have something of an almost diagnosable mania for luggage and backpacks. I guess it’s because I feel like the right travelling gear can really make or break your travel days. When Kabuto offered up a premium carry-on to review right before my family vacation, I was all over it! What is it? …
REVIEW – If you have read much of my stuff on this website, you know that I’m pretty disappointed in “the future.” I mean, the closest thing I can get to Rosie the maid in “The Jetsons” is a robot vacuum, and dental work still involves drills like it’s 1921 instead of 2021. Recently, though, …
REVIEW — I don’t know about anyone else, but my webcam is one of those peripherals that went from relative obscurity to the center of my universe over the course of the last year. And although I have a webcam in my MS Surface, it makes me yellow. I don’t know why, and I don’t …
REVIEW – There are people out there that say “You can rest when you’re dead” and I believe that’s a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Sleep and sleep quality have been linked to weight loss, Alzheimer’s and a whole host of more common issues such as job and exam performance. Up until now, getting feedback …

CROWDFUNDING NEWS – Finally an Indiegogo project I can get behind! The GoSun Chillest is a solar-powered cooler that has both a freezer zone and a refrigerator zone. They claim they can keep you in popsicles at the beach for up to 10 hours, no ice required! This may seem a bit familiar, since the …
CROWDFUNDING NEWS – For those that want to look like a cross between Robbie the Robot and a beekeeper comes the Airodome. This is a helmet that sucks air in through a beanbag-like filter on top of your head and promises a wide array of things that aren’t possible if you wear the technology of …
CROWDFUNDING NEWS – For those who want to cuddle but have an unnatural fear of pins and needles comes The Spoonie. It’s a tube-shaped pillow that you can slip over your arm so it doesn’t fall asleep while you’re cuddling your partner. According to their Kickstarter page, “Since the dawn of time, this issue has …
REVIEW – When I’m working, I do a fair amount of presenting, and although I have a captive audience, I like to put on a good show anyway. Typically it involves a dazzling array of bells and whistles, but I’m always looking for one more that no one else has. Today I’m reviewing my latest: …
