Okay, I'm going to talk about something that seems to be very geeky. I will also admit that I have no practical experience with it. You have heard me talk about how I have attended various conventions like CES, PAX, and MomoCon, but I have never been to Comic-Con. For those of you who aren't aware, Comic-Con is like the ultimate convention. I have heard some comic-book … [Read more...] about What is up with San Diego Comic-Con?

myCharge StylePower 2000mAh Portable Charger
Of course, I am reviewing another mobile battery, because these things are just that popular. This one my myCharge is the PowerStyle, and it does give the mobile battery some style. It looks like it is made to fit in your pocket, but has a great style. It has a 2000 mAh worth of power, which allows it to be used for about 500 times. That might not be a lot, but if the … [Read more...] about myCharge StylePower 2000mAh Portable Charger
Speculative Fiction Friday: Kingsman: The Secret Service
Okay, I'm not really certain that I can classify this as a speculative fiction film, as at its heart, Kingsman: The Secret Service is a spy-fi film. I discussed when I reviewed The Avengers (the movie based on a British TV show, not the Marvel one) how there is a terrific spy-fi genre that isn't really around now. Shows like The Prisoner and certain James Bond movies often … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Friday: Kingsman: The Secret Service
Replay: VHS is not dead Review
I will have to admit that this game was difficult for me, and I'll have to describe it as best as I can. The game is about a man who returns some videos, and there is kind of an eighties anime vibe going on. The woman behind the counter is attractive but gets unkind when customers don't rewind. Anyway, the man has some serious magic realism going on as he gets transported … [Read more...] about Replay: VHS is not dead Review
Anna’s Quest: One of the finest point-and-clicks that I ever played
I have reviewed a lot of point-and-clicks on this blog. I honestly don't want to put the last ones I wrote about, because I just don't want to put links in there. Oh wait, one of them was Dead Synchronicity, which was also by Daedalic Entertainment. I don't know if I was just in a good mood when I started playing Anna's Quest, but I just could not stop playing it on the last … [Read more...] about Anna’s Quest: One of the finest point-and-clicks that I ever played

Speculative Fiction Saturday: Advantageous
I can understand if you haven't heard of this film, as it just came out this year. I can't remember what Source I read, but one said that Advantageous is the best science-fiction movie this year. Once I discovered that it was on Netflix, I decided to check it out for myself. I have to say that this indie film looks bigger than I thought it would be. It is one of those … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Advantageous

Squito 360-Degree Throwable Panoramic Camera
This is going to be another time where I'm going to talk about how 360 Degree cameras are just going to take over, and how we are all going to need some Oculus Rifts to view it all. This is a pretty fascinating thing called the Squito, and it isn't a toy ball but a panormaic camera that you can just toss around. There are three separate cameras, which involves video and … [Read more...] about Squito 360-Degree Throwable Panoramic Camera

I've had a chance to review some great keyboards for tablets and smartphones before, and this particular one2TOUCH Flipcover keyboard is one that I like for so many reasons. The first reason that I like this is that you can put the Flipcover on your device and have a handy keyboard when you need it.

Rainbow Facebook Profile Tool an Experiement?
Well, I think you know about the marriage equality thing, and you might have been on Facebook and seen many of your friends' profiles being all Rainbow Dashed (that isn't a My Little Pony reference). I suppose that since this is technically a Christian blog, and that was kind of a pun there. This could be the point where I talk about the seriousness of the Supreme Court's … [Read more...] about Rainbow Facebook Profile Tool an Experiement?

Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Cobbler
Okay, I think this might be the first Adam Sandler film that I have reviewed here. I'm guessing it won't be the last because I want to see Pixels, even though I might wait to rent it. So, I realize that Adam Sandler has a reputation for using dumb humor. Films like Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and more established that he has done a lot of films that aren't really … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Cobbler

The game is about the main character who is searching for a missing expedition team, which is a sign that you are about to enter a world of horror.
