Kogeto Dot Panorama iPhone 4/4S Camera Adapter Review

kogeto dot 7

A few weeks ago, I reviewed the GoPano micro panorama lens attachment for the iPhone 4/4S. This adapter allows you to easily capture 360 degree video and sound. I loved the concept of the product, but the resulting video was less than impressive due to focus issues. Techguy commented on that review suggesting that I might want to take […]

RickshawCommuter2.0 01

Of late, I’ve had the opportunity to add a few chapters to my continuing saga for the “perfect” gear bag (for me at least), the most recent being an evaluation of the Tom Bihn Cadet.  Being mainly a messenger bag fan(atic), I’d been wondering if there was one out there that could supplant my venerable

In North Carolina, we are subjected to everything that Mother Nature can throw at us other than volcanoes.  😉  We are often warned to prepare for some impending bad weather by gathering up supplies and by filling up the bathtub with water.  Normally I wouldn’t consider using bathtub water for anything other than flushing the

The Aikiou Cat Stimulo Feeding Station engages your cat’s mind as she eats her dinner.  Instead of just gobbling down her food quickly so she can get back to her 23-hour nap, she has to use her paw to dig her food out of the tubes.  This “foraging” slows down eating, which can mean fewer

Printopia 2 for Mac Mobile Printing Software Review

Printopia Contents

We have been promised a paperless office for years now. Perhaps it will never happen. With the iPad, I have found that many of the documents I used to print out I now carry on my device or store online in a service such as Evernote or Dropbox.

Printopia, a Mac application from ecamm to the rescue!
