I actually think this is the first time I have ever mentioned Bitcoin on this particular blog. If you are not familiar with it, it is a type of digital currency that is made for P2P (peer to peer) that works for worldwide payments with zero or low processing fees. I guess it was about time that someone invented the Xapo Debit Card, which works on a similar method to other … [Read more...] about Xapo: A Debit Card for Bitcoin
The Rollick by iLuv
I believe that Dr. Dre's Beats has created this pill-shaped speaker, and it looks like iLuv have come out with their own version. I'm going to look at this as coincidental design. The Rollick, which I will have to say sounds a lot like my last name, has dual speakers for producing awesome sound. This is a wireless speaker with Bluetooth, or aux-in wired possibility as … [Read more...] about The Rollick by iLuv
Jabra Rox Wireless
Yeah, at this point, there is no way I am going to give a negative review of a Jabra product. Their Bluetooth wireless products occupy my ear every day, and they have been in the business for a long time. I'm not going to bother trying to describe the sound of the new Rox Wireless, because how am I supposed to do that in written form? I'll just tell you that it has the … [Read more...] about Jabra Rox Wireless
Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Coneheads, and it isn’t good
Well, I hesitate to call this speculative fiction, as The Coneheads has always been more comedy than it has been speculative. In case you are not familiar with The Coneheads, it was originally a sketch from Saturday Night Live. I have seen a few of The Coneheads sketches from the 1970's, and they are pretty funny. The premise was that two aliens, Beldar (Dan Aykroyd) and … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Coneheads, and it isn’t good
Al Fayah Park will be a stunning addition to Abu Dhabi
I don't know if you are familiar with the city of Abu Dhabi, but it is quite a city of the future in the midst of the desert. It is the home to Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building. Now there is this plan for Al Fayah Park, which is an artificially created oasis in the midst of an ersatz desert. In the Park are "cafés, community gardens, a public library, … [Read more...] about Al Fayah Park will be a stunning addition to Abu Dhabi
@7PM by Looq System
As I mentioned before in my review for the Blumoo, people are using their smartphones for all kinds of controllers. The product known as @7PM by Looq system is meant to change the smartphone into a master Universal remote. The @7PM, which I will have to admit has an odd name, and I can't turn off the automatic link to this one guy's Twitter site. This product is … [Read more...] about @7PM by Looq System
Logitech Ultrathin Bluetooth keyboard for all iPad models
I have reviewed a lot of iPad keyboards in my time, and I have to admit that the Logitech Ultrathin looks similar to other types of products that I have reviewed. What makes the Ultrathin different is that it is ultra-thinner and lighter than products before it. You should be able to use it for protection as you can use it to cover the vulnerable or touchscreen side. As … [Read more...] about Logitech Ultrathin Bluetooth keyboard for all iPad models

What is this, you say? Well, you're probably not saying that, but this is quite a device for those who want to take care of cats from a distance. Okay, you probably don't want to do that … [Read more...] about Kittyo is an Internet cat lovers dream
Amazon’s new phone is promising a lot of nifty features
Lately, I have been hearing a lot of cool stuff, but nothing really confirmed, about a new smartphone from Amazon. I wish that I would just get the press release, but they just haven't done anything big since the Fire TV announcement a few weeks ago. The latest news about Amazon's smartphone is this feature that involves certain things to be revealed when the user tilts … [Read more...] about Amazon’s new phone is promising a lot of nifty features
Apple to Samsung: Copy this, please!
I think we all know that Apple and Samsung are kind of like Frememies. I believe that Apple is always suing Samsung for stealing their ideas, and I can't honestly give an unbiased view here. After all, practically every smartphone (not just the ones that Samsung makes) looks just like the iPhone since its release in 2007. As you can see in this image here, Apple took out … [Read more...] about Apple to Samsung: Copy this, please!
Connect things with your phone with Snap
Ever since the iPod was invented, this began the dawn of the iPod dock. Not only did we have a mobile device, we have to keep the mobile device in secure places. These days, we have to have our mobile devices in our car, bike, and every place. I have seen some of these devices made for all kinds of places, and this is the Snap. All you need to do to mount it is place on … [Read more...] about Connect things with your phone with Snap
BB.Suit: Onesie turns its wearer into a walking hotspot
There are probably many of you who read this who are like me: all you need is a Wi-Fi hotspot. Now imagine that you could be the hotspot. This is the BB.Suit, which is made by a 3D technique which leaves space for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and NFC connections. My Sources don't really have much information about this, but I like the potential. For example, I believe … [Read more...] about BB.Suit: Onesie turns its wearer into a walking hotspot
Able Planet NC2000BCM Headphones and why you should own an Able Planet product
Some of you who follow my blog know that I have been reviewing Able Planet products for a long time, and I can't honestly remember where I discovered this company, but I really wish they were as famous as SkullCandy or Monster. I've recently had the awesome opportunity to try out one of their latest with the NC2000BCM, or Linx Fusion Active Noise Canceling headphones with … [Read more...] about Able Planet NC2000BCM Headphones and why you should own an Able Planet product
Blumoo wirelessly streams music to your stereo system, from a mobile
Okay, this is a headline that I wish I could have shortened. The truth is, I'm not really certain what to call this device. I suppose Bluetooth speaker could work, but it is more like a Bluetooth receiver. The Blumoo is this device that comes with a cable connector so you can attach your stereo to it. This allows you to sync your speakers to a mobile device with the … [Read more...] about Blumoo wirelessly streams music to your stereo system, from a mobile
Specluative Fiction Saturday: Upside Down
One of the reasons that I enjoy speculative fiction is they tend to be very imaginative, and Upside Down is a film with one of the most imaginative premises that I have ever seen. If you have never heard of it, I can't say that I blame you. It only grossed about 100,000 dollars in America, and I really hope that it did more than its 60 million budget overseas. Upside … [Read more...] about Specluative Fiction Saturday: Upside Down
