What you are seeing here might like the evil version of Sen.se's Mother, or maybe the good version if this is the opposite of the Mother. Okay, I really need to let my person opinion of Sen.se's mother go, really. Personally, the shape is very Jetsons-ish. What you are seeing here is some future-age sound in the Dream One. This wireless speaker is able to produce some … [Read more...] about Dream One Wireless Speaker System

Trew Grip Mobile QWERTY keyboard
I know that I have said this before, but I hate typing on a touchscreen. I can see that this is where we are headed, but I can't help but think if my addiction to the clickity-click of keys will make me analog in a digital touchscreen world. The worst part is trying to hold a touchscreen device and type on it at the same time. Then along came Trew Grip. This thing is an … [Read more...] about Trew Grip Mobile QWERTY keyboard
Sen.se Big Mother is watching you. Good thing?
I am going to be honest with you and say that there is a little bit of sensationalism in my headline. I am not certain if it is justified, but let's just say that Sen.se Mother is a little Orwellian. This Matryoshka doll without layers is the Mother, and it is designed to keep its eye on you and your loved ones. This isn't a nanny-cam, but it is essentially a hub for … [Read more...] about Sen.se Big Mother is watching you. Good thing?
TAO Wellshell Isometric Exercise System
Every once in a while, you see some new tech that looks completely non-sensible, and then you actually try it. Then you wonder how you will live without it. I believe that the TAO Wellshell could be that new must-have item for those who want to exercise, anywhere. It can connect via Bluetooth to a smartphone or tablet, and allows you to burn calories by squeezing. In … [Read more...] about TAO Wellshell Isometric Exercise System
Tobii and YEI Technology show the future of gaming at CES Unveiled
In the future, will we be wearing our game for a completely immersive experience? I honestly don't see why not. Yesterday, at CES Unveiled, I saw not one, but two technologies that could change the way we game, if combined. I'll start with YEI Technology. This company puts out a suit/controller known as PrioVR, and it is cable of turning one's body into a controller. … [Read more...] about Tobii and YEI Technology show the future of gaming at CES Unveiled
Drones take the floor at CES Unveiled 2014
I can honestly tell you that last night at CES Unveiled was a little bit of a shoulder-to-shoulder, standing room only event. One of the things that got a lot of press was anything that was above the floor. Parrot, for example, had their new MiniDrone on hand. The MiniDrone is the blue one that you can see in the image here, and it has detachable side wheels for land … [Read more...] about Drones take the floor at CES Unveiled 2014
We are here at CES 2014 all week!
In case you haven't heard, we will be at CES 2014. In case you haven't heard what CES is, it is a huge electronics show that takes place in Las Vegas, and I managed to get myself here. During this next week, most of the big tech companies will be displaying all of their cool stuff that they intend to release this year. I will be viewing all kinds of new tech, and I fully … [Read more...] about We are here at CES 2014 all week!
Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Wolverine
Well, I had a chance to see Mr. Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine the other day, and I wish that I didn't. This is the sixth time he has played this movie role that established him as an actor, and it is the worst Wolverine film since...the last Wolverine film. I am referring to X-men Origins (Colon) Wolverine. It is a real shame, as this film started off so well with Logan … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Wolverine
The Tactical Laser-Guided Pizza Cutter
I don't know about you, but cutting pizza is always a bane for me. It seems like it never cuts enough, and you end up pulling to separate only to have serious toppings ripped off. This particular pizza cutter has a laser/flashlight scope so it creates a straight line cut. Hey, you never know when you need that kind of precision. I think any argument that you can have … [Read more...] about The Tactical Laser-Guided Pizza Cutter
Hasbro presents the Furby Boom, with a special guest reviewer!
I'm sure some of you remember Furby's, as they were the must-have holiday gift back in the late nineties, along with the Tickle Me Elmo of the mid-nineties. After that, I don't know what toy is the must-have. I am assuming that this year's must haves were the Xbox One and the PS4, but Hasbro, makers of Transformers Constructo-Bots and Angry Birds Star Wars toys has the … [Read more...] about Hasbro presents the Furby Boom, with a special guest reviewer!
Moleskin combines Lego with a journal
I suppose that this next product isn't really a gadget per se, but I'm pretty certain I have made many mentions on this blog of my love of all things LEGO. This LEGO notebook from Moleskine is with it to have if you want to journal more for the new year. Moleskine, a company that makes a lot of quality notebooks, planners, and journals, has created a LEGO notebook. This … [Read more...] about Moleskin combines Lego with a journal
Bosco Verticale under construction
I am always interested in projects that are environmentally sound and have sustainable power involved, and this Bosco Verticale could set a standard. According to my Source, "this building will help balance the microclimate and in filtering the dust particles contained in the urban environment, especially with Milan being one of the most polluted cities in Europe". I … [Read more...] about Bosco Verticale under construction
2013: A Year in Tech
Well, the year has almost ended, and I thought I would take the time out to talk about what impacted us the most this year. This is not going to be in any particular order, so don't interpret this as a "Top Ten" list. No More Woof, simply because it is so very interesting. Perhaps I should nominate it as my crowdfunded project of the year. It was definitely the year … [Read more...] about 2013: A Year in Tech
My Review of Lego Marvel Heroes
Unlike my last review of the Golf-X-Cube, I actually have a lot of experience playing LEGO-oriented video games. In fact, I have everyone that they have made since the first LEGO Star Wars, and I love them a lot, even though they have changed very little since their conception. For those that are not familiar with them, the LEGO games are usually tied in with a popular … [Read more...] about My Review of Lego Marvel Heroes
Golf-X-Cube will help improve your game
I'm going to start this review and say that I am probably not the audience that would want this product. I think we all know that people who golf are like those who like Doctor Who. that is, you have heard about it, but don't want to get into it, and might not understand those who are into it. I am the type who has heard of golf, never saw any need to get into it. Since … [Read more...] about Golf-X-Cube will help improve your game
