Ever since I first reported on the WakaWaka, and yes, that is the product's real name. Forget Fozzie Bear for a while and concentrate on a solar charger that can light your world and charge your gadgets. The WakaWaka power has a solar panel on one side that allows you to absorb the power of the sun, and then allows you to shine its light for about 150 hours. Granted, it … [Read more...] about WakaWaka Power is the solar-powered light we all need

The Sound Spot from Soundfreaq
Another week, another Bluetooth speaker. Yeah, that's common for me, and the Sound Spot by Soundfreaq is a very nice one. This portable Sound Spot is a wireless home speaker with "mid-century design inspiration". I am guessing that it is saying that it resembles a 1950's speaker. At least it isn't from the 1970's. It is definitely quite loud, and something that is a … [Read more...] about The Sound Spot from Soundfreaq
My review of Element Case’s Recon Pro Case, Rogue Ducati, plus the Fuse Dek Surface Mount and Zip Mount
I've reviewed Element Cases before on this blog. To me, they are one of the best cases for protection around, up there with Otterbox. I got a chance to try out three of their new products, and I will start with the Recon Pro Case for Samsung Galaxy S5. You can see that the Recon Pro has this really cool almost futuristic aesthetic to it, something that I believe is to be … [Read more...] about My review of Element Case’s Recon Pro Case, Rogue Ducati, plus the Fuse Dek Surface Mount and Zip Mount
London cops are wearing cams, wearing cams, wearing cams
This is a very interesting news development from London, which I have heard is one of the most surveillanced places in all the world.

London Metropolitan Police have been received an upgrade as Taser has supplied them with 500 Axon body suits equipped with cameras. Believe it or not, most of … [Read more...] about London cops are wearing cams, wearing cams, wearing cams

Huvr gives you a Hoverboard…Not!
Remember a while ago when I talked about the Back to the Future II shoe? Well, we are getting close to the 2015 year that this film took place, and we are still nowhere near flying cars. Back in 1989, when that film was made, director Robert Zemeckis insisted that the hoverboards were real. I'm not certain why in the world they spread that rumor in 1989 because there is … [Read more...] about Huvr gives you a Hoverboard…Not!
Smartgun will not fire unless Smartwatch is present
This Armatix iP1 is essentially an interesting gun safety possibility, and one that I wouldn't mind in my house. If I had a gun, that is. The Armatix iP1 is a .22 caliber gun that is smart. I've seen smartguns before, but this one is wirelessly connected to a smartwatch. You will find that the smartgun will not fire unless it is in range of the smartwatch. It … [Read more...] about Smartgun will not fire unless Smartwatch is present
Drone gets better view of accident than police
This is an interesting piece of news that I caught, and it illustrates the inability for technology to be arm-and-arm with the law. It began with an accident in Connecticut, and there was a drone that hovered over it, taking pictures and/or video. So the officers investigating the accident see this drone, and they find the man who is operating it. They ask this man a few … [Read more...] about Drone gets better view of accident than police

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.

Apple unveils the iPhone 5C and the iPhone 5S
My day is always pretty packed every time Apple makes an announcement, so it should stand to reason that the announcement of the iPhone 5S should be something. Tim Cook took the stage to talk about it, starting with iOS 7, complete with a Command Center an Notification Center. It also comes with an improved Siri, ringtones, and a way to group photos chronologically. This … [Read more...] about Apple unveils the iPhone 5C and the iPhone 5S
