I am a TV junkie and whenever I accidentally miss one of my favorite shows, I use various methods to download the video file so I can watch it. I don’t watch the shows on my iMac or iPhone though. I stream them to my 65″ RPTV so I can watch them in my living […]

USB flash drives have been around for awhile now. They come in many shapes, sizes, and capacities. Like most gadgeteers we love our USB flash drives to have a beautiful shape, small size, and of course large capacity. That’s where SuperTalent’s 32GB Pico USB flash drive comes in.

I live with someone that loves growing house plants. We have a bazillion of them in our family room. Jeanne likes buying and growing plants, but (and don’t tell her I told you…), she doesn’t have the Greenest of thumbs. At any one time, there will be several plants that look like they are just

When I got my iPod touch, I was excited that I’d be able to watch videos on its “big” screen. And I have a history of problems with finding comfortable ear buds, so I was happy that the touch had a built-in speaker so I could listen to music without using ear buds or external

Wouldn’t It Be Nice? To start with, I’m not a big cell phone fan. In fact, I have a reproduction of a turn of the century candlestick phone…you know.. the kind where you hold the earpiece to your ear but speak into a mouthpiece mounted on a slender structure? It works just fine for me.

A month ago Jackie sent me an email with the subject line of “Interesting Product” and a link to the Boogie Board LCD Writing Tablet from Improv Electronics. It looked interesting to me too, so I posted a quick news blurb about it and kept waiting for it to come in stock so that I

I have a thing for wallets and I’m always looking for minimal designs that I can use when I’m traveling. In my regular day-to-day life, I use a Waterfield wallet, but when I’m at a trade show, on vacation, etc., I only want to carry a few bills and a couple cards with me. I

Did you ever get stuck as the official notes-taker for a meeting? It’s not so bad if you can take your laptop in and type them up as you go, but it’s a pain if that’s not an option. You can photocopy your handwritten notes, but sometimes you’re expected to get them into the computer.

Being a self-confessed gadget freak, I’ve collected a large number of USB flash drives over the past few years and like most people, I use them for many purposes; storing pictures, documents, presentations, applications… you name it, it’ll be saved to one of my flash drives.

ThinkGeek has been steadily importing Star Wars ephemera from across the pond for quite some time, making available goods that would never have previously seen the light of day stateside.

A plethora of portable sound projection devices are available in a multitude of shapes and sizes. Several have piqued my interest, but the Yubz MAGNUM is somewhat unique, mostly for its factor. Because it looks like, well…a log. Yep, just like the classic Ren & Stimpy commercial. So how does this particular portable speaker system

I’m an enthusiastic proponent of backing up your systems, so when I was offered the opportunity to check out GoodSync2GO, I took a shot at it.
