Anyone that uses the internet knows that passwords play a necessary
role in the online experience. On any given day a single person may
utilize dozens of passwords while accomplishing such mundane tasks
as making posts to a bulletin board, purchasing an item, or
checking their child’s school grades. Over time, unless the same
exact password is always used, managing this large number of
passwords and the sites for which they work will become a
challenge.
Keeping your laptop computer elevated to a comfortable viewing angle and typing angle, while also allowing for good airflow, is the main features of a laptop stand. In the past several years, we’ve reviewed quite a few stands here at The Gadgeteer and now it’s time for another one. The AVIATOR stand from Keynamics is a simplified travel version of one of their stands that I reviewed 2 yrs ago.

Dress up your doors with handles featuring leather, stone and even some that feature aromatherapy. The only thing I found a bit odd is that their entry page features an insect. Kinda icky if you ask me… SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

Everyone sing along with me… “Back home again… in Indianaaaaaa….” Yes, I’m back in good old boring Columbus, Indiana. Yay! I love New York City, but it’s sure nice to get back to my quiet house with deer in the yard and coyotes in the woods (yes, I saw 2 coyotes about 2 weeks ago).

Mmmmm….kidney pie! This entry is not gadget related, and it is highly personal. But if helps one person then I won’t feel bad about having shared a bit “too much information”. So here goes… A couple of months ago I noticed a small amount of blood in my urine. This occurred on two different occasions

Women seem to be able to wear men’s clothing without catching any flak about it, but men…just try on that blouse and see what happens. Ouch. This is true as well of bags…women can walk around with a briefcase, and kiss other women, and nothing could be seen as further from normal. Let a man walk around with a women’s purse, though…and we won’t even continue the parallel metaphor, and you could wind up being beaten up and left to die on the pavement.

I was finally able to visit the Apple store on 5th Avenue today! But as luck would have it, I didn’t even notice if they had the new 24 inch iMacs, because I didn’t know one had been released until after I got back to my hotel room. Oh well! I didn’t spend a lot

Day 3 of my NYC vacation saw the end to the perfect weather. Oh well ;o) It really didn’t start getting too drippy until after noon. This morning we managed to make it to the top (86th floor) of the Empire State Building. I posted a couple of pix to my Flikr gallery. We also

Most of the time, I find that the i-mate JasJar’s 1620mAh factory
original battery is sufficient to make it through a typical day.
However when I am using the built-in wireless extensively, when I
am traveling, or when I am not able to recharge at some point
during the day, I have noticed a definite need for a backup power
solution. That’s why I was very interested to learn that Lion
Battery was carrying a 4800mAh Mugen Power Battery replacement for
the HTC Universal / i-mate JasJar.

Another perfect Blue sky day in New York City. Also another crazy crowd day. Ugh. I’m getting tired of people ;o) Some of the things we did today include visiting China Town, Little Italy (I had the best Tortelini soup for lunch…), Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island. Tomorrow I hope to FINALLY get to

The weather in NYC was prefect today. A drastic change from yesterday. Spent the entire day either walking or riding a tour bus around the city. Didn’t do any tech type activities, although I did get a glimpse of the Apple store on 5th Avenue and the Sony building with the free museum. Will be

We made it to NYC in one peice! Had a little turbulance due to the crummy weather, but nothing too bad. The weather is rainy and windy, so after grabbing some food, we’re back in the room to watch DVDs on the 30 inch plasma screen. NICE! I’m a bit disappointed though. My Treo 650

This story is funny now, but when it first happened I was really upset…
A couple years ago, I was at the ranch making my rounds – checking water and making sure that the cows’ feeders had ample salt and minerals. I had brought my dachshund Trixie along for the day’s ride, and at one of my stops I had to get out and fix a trough float that was unseated and overflowing.
I didn’t turn the truck’s engine off. As I had hundreds of times before, I just hopped out with my tool box and left Trixie in the truck while she watched me through the window.
This truck had automatic locks and as it was a hot day, I had left the windows up with the air conditioner running.
Happy Friday and Happy 3 Day Weekend to our US Readers! In a few short hours, I’ll be heading off for a week’s vacation in New York City :o) I’m really looking forward to the trip, and just hope that Ernesto doesn’t cause too much rain to fall while I’m there. I’m going light on

I recently opened my mailbox to find a package from a company named ABT
(Advanced Bridging Technologies). Opening the box revealed 3 iPod accessories. One specifically for the Apple Nano and two for any iPod with a docking connector. I’ve had a chance to put each of these products through some good old gadgeteer testing and will share my experiences with you.
