Okay, this is the second part of my SteelSeries series. Yeah, that doesn't sound good, does it. But today is the Sensei MLG Edition Gaming Mouse. The MLG stand for Major League Gaming. I don't know if the professional gamers have a league of their own, but if they did, this is quite cool and would be the standard. I definitely have to say that it would require a major … [Read more...] about SteelSeries, Part 2: Sensei MLG Edition Gaming Mouse
Tradinno is the world’s largest robot, and it is a fire-breathing dragon!
This is Tradinno, and it is the World's Largest Walking Robot. It was created by Zollner Elektronik AG, and it is 30-feet high with 40 feet wings. All that, and it breathes fire. I believe that he is used in a stage production of a Bavarian play called Drachenstich. He has his own 18-wheeler to carry him places, and it is pretty humorous. It all weighs about 11 … [Read more...] about Tradinno is the world’s largest robot, and it is a fire-breathing dragon!

Zeus 3D Scanner and Printer
I think we all know that the age of 3-D printing is coming, but we all know that 3-D printing means nothing without some 3-D inspiration. I was thinking that we need some 3-D downloadable programs. That, or you could get yourself a 3D scanner. I don't really know if there is any companies that make 3D scanners, but there is a combination 3-D printer and scanner known as … [Read more...] about Zeus 3D Scanner and Printer
The Aeroscraft has taken off
What you are seeing here is the Aeroscraft, and it is essentially a huge airship that is not a blimp. Seriously? That's not a blimp? Nope. Blimps need all that helium to maintain their shape, but the Aeroscraft has a rigid structure. Have you seen how blimps need propellers to have some propulsion? Well, the Aeroscraft doesn't need that, as it has some helium power. This … [Read more...] about The Aeroscraft has taken off
Wacom unveils new Bamboo stylii and Pads
We have reviewed Wacom products more than once on this site, and I am always pleased to review their notepad products. When I mean notepad, I mean a place where you can write and draw with a stylus. Wacom has just announced the Bamboo Pad, and it is not a notepad kind of thing. This one is pretty small, only a little bigger than the size of one's hand. The Pad offers the … [Read more...] about Wacom unveils new Bamboo stylii and Pads
A Very Special Speculative Fiction Saturday: Left Behind (2000) and why in the world are you remaking it!

After all, a site about technology and geek culture, reviewing speculative fictions films every week, it is only a matter of time before the biggest speculative Christian film of all time was reviewed here. If you aren't familiar with Left Behind, it was a series of books that sold very well in both secular and Christian … [Read more...] about A Very Special Speculative Fiction Saturday: Left Behind (2000) and why in the world are you remaking it!

Add a Flash to your smartphone with iblazr
You know how the iPhone has been avoiding Flash all those years? This includes a decent one for the camera. I suppose that you could purchase a Manfrotto KLYP that we discussed a few weeks ago, or the iblazr. The iblazr is a simple flash with four specially-made LEDs. From what I can tell, it plugs right into the headphone jack. You will want to use the App to get the … [Read more...] about Add a Flash to your smartphone with iblazr
iSketchnote gives the digital pen another try
In all my years of reporting on gadget reporting, there is one thing that I have seen over and over again, and that is the digital pen. I am not talking about one of those styluses for your iPad, but a way of turning what you write or draw on a piece of paper into something digital, no scanner required. Generally, these types of pens are really awkward to work with, and … [Read more...] about iSketchnote gives the digital pen another try
The Kyocera Kona, with some Sprint on the side
Well, I guess we all know what new smartphone was announced yesterday. Heck, it was an announcement so big, there were two of them! I figured that there is nothing I can report on that isn't related to that, so I am glad to have this Kona from Kyocera to help me out. This Sprint gem is a "dumb phone", but some people still use these clamshell wonders. I had one to … [Read more...] about The Kyocera Kona, with some Sprint on the side
Begun the Smartphone wars have: Nokia makes fun of Apple with new ad
So, iPhones like the 5C are coming out in all kinds of colors, but Nokia is kind of already doing this. So, is the ad campaign right? Microsoft, the new owner of Nokia, has tweeted something cool with their own "5S" which they say stands for "screen sizes, speed, and stunning snapshots". Oh, satire works no matter what operating system that you have. Apple, when … [Read more...] about Begun the Smartphone wars have: Nokia makes fun of Apple with new ad
Cases for the iPhone 5S and 5C already available from X-Doria
In all honesty, I don't really have much to report on. With the announcement of a new Apple product, all I can do is report on the accessories. I figured that I would just discuss the first press release that arrived in my InBox after the big announcement. I figured it might as well be X-Doria, as I like this company. I'll start with the Defense 720 degrees which provides … [Read more...] about Cases for the iPhone 5S and 5C already available from X-Doria
Polaroid XS80 1080p HD Action Video Camera
Right now, it is difficult to talk about anything but the release of the new iPhone, but hey, I need to do this review of the Polaroid XS80. It seems like the only cameras that are making a splash these days are those from the GoPro line, makers of those action style cameras. I suppose that the rest of the world just uses their cellphone camera. The XS80 is one of … [Read more...] about Polaroid XS80 1080p HD Action Video Camera
