This was the first video that I posted on YouTube, and yeah, it's quality is somewhat bad. Just have fun, as it was pretty fun to make. That's all I have to say about this. … [Read more...] about Vampire Wuss returns

Precisely when does the holiday season begin again?
Okay, today is Halloween, and I believe that this has got me wondering: when does Christmas shopping season begin? I walked into a store today and they were putting up Christmas decorations, and Halloween hasn't even began yet. I remember as a kid not being able to wait until Christmas, and not seeing any commercials related to it until Thanksgiving. Now, I see them … [Read more...] about Precisely when does the holiday season begin again?
Motorola Ara could start a new era in smartphones
What you are seeing here is a disassembled smartphone, but it is for a good reason. You know how a lot of phones like the iPhone or the Samsung Galaxy S have to be upgraded, like every year? Imagine if you could just update certain things when needed. This is the concept behind Phonebloks, and it really is something that could simplify smartphones as we know it. This is … [Read more...] about Motorola Ara could start a new era in smartphones
Lenovo announces their Yoga Tablet, with Ashton Kutcher
Last night, Lenovo had a live YouTube broadcast with the one-and-only Ashton Kutcher to show off the new Yoga Tablet. Ashton hit the stage to say that he is apparently on Lenovo's team, and they even had a comedy sketch to show him at the company HQ. Yeah, it wasn't very funny, but who cares, let's talk about the Tablet! This is a step up from the IdeaPad Yoga 11S … [Read more...] about Lenovo announces their Yoga Tablet, with Ashton Kutcher
New Army Helmet brings Heads Up Display day to a close
In case you aren't aware of this, I pick the subject matter from mostly other tech blogs. Generally, I write about what interests me the most, or what I know readers what to read about. In the case of today, this is my third heads-up display story that I covered. The first being that cool new technology that put touch to your sight, and then that potential Google Glass … [Read more...] about New Army Helmet brings Heads Up Display day to a close
Google trying to build a Google Glass store on a San Francisco Bay Barge?
I guess if I was the head of a big tech company, I would probably enjoy building structures to do more than just get attention. After all, Amazon is creating that Bio-dome in Seattle, and now I hear that Google is building something in the San Francisco Bay. I find it very odd that Google is building this thing, and according to my sources, it is being built for the … [Read more...] about Google trying to build a Google Glass store on a San Francisco Bay Barge?
i-Air adds touch to Heads-Up Displays
It seems like I have been seeing a lot about Google Glass, and I haven't really seen many people try and imitate this tech, as yet. This particular tech from ITRI (Industrial Technology Research Institute) could make the Glass invisible. By invisible, I am talking about never to be seen again. As far as I know, most of Google Glass had its controls based on the voice, … [Read more...] about i-Air adds touch to Heads-Up Displays
iPin Laser pointer fits right on your phone’s headphone jack
Personally, I think that smartphones like the iPhone need to have more hardware attachments to them. I picture a day where a phone can have more features on it than a Swiss Army Knife, so if you want a screwdriver, there is an app for that. Of course, you will have to redesign the smartphone for that, and you can even create some sort of case to hold it, maybe. So we … [Read more...] about iPin Laser pointer fits right on your phone’s headphone jack
Amazon building their own private jungle in the Seattle area
Being from the Seattle area, it is always interesting to see what the big tech companies are doing. For example, Amazon wants to build a jungle, in the Seattle area. Yes, they want to make their own Bio-Dome, and the Pauly Shore movie is of no relation, hopefully. Actually they want to build three bio-domes, as part of their new massive headquarters which includes three … [Read more...] about Amazon building their own private jungle in the Seattle area
LG Flex oddly announced
Some of you might be questioning that headline, and yeah, I will admit that it is quite skeptical in its coverage. Did LG announce the Flex or not? The truth is that LG's press release briefly appeared online, and then, bam, it was gone. I have received an email about it, so I will simply assume that it is okay to report on it. So in case, you haven't heard, LG has … [Read more...] about LG Flex oddly announced
Speculative Fiction Saturday: R.I.P.D. It would have been better without Men In Black
I have to admit that when I first saw R.I.P.D. for the first time, I was under-whelmed. The biggest problem with the film is that it is exactly like the 1997 landmark Men In Black. If you were to write out the characters and plot elements of both films, they would be almost the same. In fact, you could draw lines and play a matching game. Jeff Bridges is very similar to … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: R.I.P.D. It would have been better without Men In Black
Pocket Watch Flip Phone is not for this era, but should be
I think we all know that the age of the flip phone is essentially gone, as someone decided that the new chic was a touchscreen and that is all. Thanks, Apple. This particular phone is hidden within a pocket watch, which is something that I never really see anymore. You can see how it opens up to reveal a number pad and 1.8 display. In addition to being a phone, it also … [Read more...] about Pocket Watch Flip Phone is not for this era, but should be
Hiku Grocery Scanner
I am always looking for ways to technologically update things that we have been doing for a long time. Grocery shopping is as old as grocery stores, and most of us still use the same system to shop. Granted, some of us can text a grocery list, and this is about the only update from pen and paper. Still, I would much rather have an easy to make grocery list that I just … [Read more...] about Hiku Grocery Scanner
My Review of the iLaunch Thunder by Dream Cheeky
If you are not familiar with Dream Cheeky, then you should check out what they have on their site. It makes you think: "just when I thought I had seen every iPhone/iPad accessory, I never thought I would see this". The iLaunch Thunder is a Missile Launcher for iDevices, and it has to be linked wirelessly via Bluetooth. Don't worry, these missiles are soft, and they won't … [Read more...] about My Review of the iLaunch Thunder by Dream Cheeky
X-Doria iPhone 5C cases, Take 2: The Defense 720º and Scene Plus
Well, I have been lovin' these X-Doria cases for the iPhone 5C, and now, I would like to introduce the Defense 720º and the Scene Plus. The 720º is an upgrade for the very popular (in fact, most popular) product, the Defense 360º. The 720º has the same har plastic protective front shield that I can barely see. I believe that this front shield is the closest that I may … [Read more...] about X-Doria iPhone 5C cases, Take 2: The Defense 720º and Scene Plus
