Well, this is our second round for reviewing Mobee technology, and I am pleased to review two other items that have their "Magic" label on them. The last one doesn't have a "Magic" but it still does something good. I will start with the Magic Feet, and it is designed to charge both the Apple Magic Mouse and the Wireless Keyboard (or Apple Magic Trackpad) simultaneously. … [Read more...] about Mobee Technology, Part 2: Magic Feet, Magic Case 2800, and the Power Bar

Nintendo working on a Theme Park with Universal Studios
In case you don't know, Nintendo is very picky about how much it lends out its intellectual property. Yes, the eighties had the Nintendo cereal system, but you might notice that there was not a Legend of Zelda movie after Super Mario Brothers was released. I have to admire Nintendo for that, but the company has inked an deal with Universal studios to have a theme park … [Read more...] about Nintendo working on a Theme Park with Universal Studios
Mobee Technology, Part 1: Magic Hub, Magic Charger, and Smart Cable
I've got to love Mobee Technology products, and I had a chance to try out several of them, which leads to a two-part posting. I'll star with the Magic Hub, which is essentially an additional USB charging port for the iMac. As you can see, you can stick it on the back of iMac by unplugging the original power cord from the iMac, then insert the Magic Hub into the hole on … [Read more...] about Mobee Technology, Part 1: Magic Hub, Magic Charger, and Smart Cable
Void Changes VR Games, and Samsung Gear VR
If you haven't heard of Void before, then I guarantee that you will want to hear more about it. The Void is a virtual reality experience like no other, and I'm not certain who can top it. Designed by Ken Bretschneider, it is essentially a virtual gaming center with 60 x 60 foot rooms, allowing people to play while fully immersed in another world. On the surface, these … [Read more...] about Void Changes VR Games, and Samsung Gear VR
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Avengers, The Age of Ultron
Okay, so I have another Marvel movie to review, and this time, I'm not going to give this one a negative review. It isn't as bad as The Amazing Spider-man 2, but not as good as Guardians of the Galaxy. The problem with these Marvel movies is there is a lot at stake. Now that they are in the Cinematic Universe, almost every character in the Avengers has a movie of their … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Avengers, The Age of Ultron
Nikola Labs has iPhone case that charges from the air
Remember yesterday when I discussed the really cool waterproof battery case from Mophie? Well, that might be a thing of the past thanks to this Nikola Labs product. According to the Nikola Labs website, "Nikola Technology efficiently converts RF signals like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and LTE into DC power using its proprietary energy harvesting circuit. The result is usable … [Read more...] about Nikola Labs has iPhone case that charges from the air
Disney Infinity 3.0 has “Star Wars” characters
I have written about Disney Infinity before, and did a hands-on review when I had it for the Nintendo Wii. If you aren't familiar with it, Disney Infinity is one of those games like Skylanders and Lego Dimensions where you have a figurine that you can put in the game, in a digital form. Last year, they introduced Disney Infinity 2.0, which involved the addition of a lot … [Read more...] about Disney Infinity 3.0 has “Star Wars” characters
Mophie has a waterproof iPhone battery case with the H2PRO
I've had some chances to review Mophie products before in the past, and the ones that I am most grateful for are the ones that were sent to me before I was even writing for this blog. The last thing that I reviewed for the company was the Outride, and that was back in 2012. Mophie is a company that is most famous for their juice pack, which was a mobile battery. I believe … [Read more...] about Mophie has a waterproof iPhone battery case with the H2PRO
My Review of Project Root from OPQAM
Okay, you know how much that I like reviewing video games, and I had a chance to try out Project Root by OPQAM. I will have to say that this game is addictive, awesome, and old-school meets the modern age of gaming. Project Root is a video game that doesn't need a complex backstory, but it has one. In all honesty, I don't really even care but it involves some evil … [Read more...] about My Review of Project Root from OPQAM
PhoneDrone turns a smartphone into a personal drone
Every once in a while, you'll see a Kickstarter project where I have to go: Hmmm. Such is the case with the the PhoneDrone, an apparatus for your phone that allows it to become an autonomous aerial camera. Now here is the first thing that I asked. Why would you want to put your smartphone on a flying drone? Not only are you throwing your phone to the wind, but to me, it … [Read more...] about PhoneDrone turns a smartphone into a personal drone
Christian Movie Samples “God’s Not Dead” and “Heaven is for Real”
Here's the thing about Christian movies: I don't like them. I think that I was pretty clear in my Christians in the Arts series how I feel about secular art vs. Christian art, and I was prepared to tear both of these movies a new one. Seriously, I already discussed how I feel about how certain Christian film can't help but come off as propaganda, and the first of this movies … [Read more...] about Christian Movie Samples “God’s Not Dead” and “Heaven is for Real”
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Other Space
I've been talking about Community last week, and I will have to say there are good episodes and bad episodes. I still watch it because it sometimes produces a gem, and I guess it was worth Yahoo bringing it back for a sixth season. Another series that Yahoo has "birthed" is a science fiction comedy series known as Other Space. In talking about Other Space, I am going to have … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Other Space
