Easi-Speak PRO USB recorder simplifies chatting online

Chatting online has long advanced from simple text to voice and video chatting; even MSN will soon bid us a farewell as its presence has become outdated due to VOIP tools such as Skype. We not only like to easily connect with friends and family near and far via our computers and tablets but want them to hear us loud and clear. Today’s computers come with built-in cameras, speakers and microphones (which by the way was once a luxury for those youngens out there), but it doesn’t take a pro to realize before long that though they are great to have they do not necessarily do the purpose any justice, the…

A handy anti-bacterial screen and keyboard cleaning system

One of our many New Year’s resolutions should be to keep our computers cleaner as they are a germ fest that spread viruses continuously. Many who work in an office environment should already be a little more aware of wiping down keyboards but that is not where the dirt begins or ends. …

Epic rap battle: Gollum vs. Smeagol

The rapper who rules them all is the sketchy yet well liked character known as Smeagol from the trilogy, The Lord of the Rings and although he happens to be loyal to his “master”, his alter-ego, Gollum is not so nice and wants the ring for himself and often refers to it as his “precioussss…” …

The application of Biometric tools for workforce management

Biometrics has evolved into a multi-use tool for corporations and government organizations. While the surface is just being scratched as far as the full potential of biometrics, a basic knowledge of the science involves an understanding of the two types of biometric systems: physiological biometrics, sometimes called Physiometrics, and behavioral biometrics, often known as Behaviometrics. Physiological biometric systems compile and analyze physical characteristics associated with a subject or group of subjects. Examples of physiological biometric applications include retinal…

The art of perception

The art of perception

We assume what we see is how it is but as the old adage goes “not everything is as it appears”. I have often wondered how differently others see the world, since I cannot see outside of my own eyes even though I try and keep my mind open, I still cannot help but wonder at times if perhaps my perception is skewed. …

Water dancing music speakers

Water dancing music speakers

Make your music dance with speakers filled with colorful water that will swish to the vibrations of the sound from the attached speakers. Speakers have almost become a necessity to own, especially with the various gadgets and laptops we collect like Barbie’s, even if they come with built-in speakers they most certainly do not do audio any justice. …

iPad finger painting of a cat (timelapsed video)

Having the ability to paint is pretty impressive within itself, not everyone has the creative gene. Watching an idea go from thought to art is an amazing process to witness and even more so when someone can turn a photograph of a real cat and finger paint it on an iPad artistically is simply a mind-blowing experience. …

Is Christopher Nolan the most appealing part about Man of Steel?

Is Christopher Nolan the most appealing part about Man of Steel?

The question has a pretty obvious answer. People would have been excited if Danny DeVito was the producer. Still, the funny folks at How It Should Have Ended put together a nice spoof commentary discussion between Superman and Batman, tied together by the presence of Dark Knight director and Man of Steel producer Christopher Nolan. As 2013 looms and excitement about a slew of summer blockbusters coming a half a year from now starts building up, it makes for fun to watch the epic trailer, then watch the HISHE treatment.
