Habitat like a Hobbit in your very own Hobbit hole

Habitat like a Hobbit in your very own Hobbit hole

We all anxiously awaited our return to the Shire and into Middle Earth’s fantasy concocted by J.R.R Tolkien and Peter Jackson and now that we have had another taste of precious magic, we surely cannot wait to watch it again when it comes out on Blu-Ray. But why wait? When you can have a Hobbit hole of your very own, whether it is as a shed, sauna, chicken coop or cottage, a Hobbit hole waits for you to take home. …

The Java debacle: Should businesses be concerned?

The Java debacle: Should businesses be concerned?

If you are a programmer you are well aware of what Java is, for the rest of us computer friendly folks, we just simply download Java when it prompts for an update on our computers. The lesson within this debacle over the latest update to Java certainly makes us feel uneasy and to understand why we need to be concerned we need to grasp knowing what Java is and what it could mean not only for individuals but for businesses as well. …

Track the latest flu trends via Google

Track the latest flu trends via Google

We really aren’t kidding when we say that Google is our go-to guide to teach us what we need to know, to show us how to spell and to accumulate data for any type of research. This search engine is most certainly an advanced modernized version of what we once knew as  encyclopedias, instead now we are provided further information faster and more accurately through Google. Even finding out where the influenza virus is hitting most hard and helping ourselves from becoming its latest victim this year. The flu is a body battle that gives you a few hard punches and knocks you out, as you are well aware of…

Lightsaber door handle changes color when occupied

Lightsaber door handle changes color when occupied

The “laser sword” we have come to know and love from the Star Wars movies, the Lightsaber, is the signature weapon used between a Jedi and a Sith, basically the weaponry used to counteract good vs. evil. Spanning back to 1977 when we were first introduced to the blade of plasma used to deflect blaster bolts and leave the defeated wounded with cauterized flesh, this pioneering form of combat was futuristic then and still remains ultramodern today. Although a true Lightsaber does not yet exist, there are other forms it does come in such as Star Wars toys and gimmicks and can now be a part of your entry…

The iDream 3 massager unites modern technology with the meridian theory of Chinese medicine

The iDream 3 massager unites modern technology with the meridian theory of Chinese medicine

At first I thought this idea was bizarre since traditionally massages included your feet, neck or back, so my initial instinct was to think of having my eyes or head messaged as a little odd. Then I began thinking of how much time we spend at our computers, straining our eyes, keeping our heads in one direction, but never did I think of getting a massager for them. In fact, I had no idea they even existed, especially beyond simply being a concept design, but sure enough there is an optical and head massager that is long past concept to purchasable, and its purpose will relax and rejuvenate you. …

Rewind time by adding a 3D cassette tape to your wall

Rewind time by adding a 3D cassette tape to your wall

Flashback to the 80’s and 90’s when mixtapes were a sign of affection and the top 9 at 9 was time to sit and press record. Back then, music took a little more effort to retrieve than it does today and radio was exciting to listen to, especially if you had a boom box that had a record button on it. Music companies flourished in providing us with manual labored music, since every time you wanted to listen to a tune you had to hit rewind or fast forward; no such thing as repeat or shuffle. It is hard to imagine that it would be the last of the musical era to have to put effort into listening to music that you loved…

Turn your iPhone into a projector

Turn your iPhone into a projector

We all enjoy sharing our captured moments through photos especially with our friends and family members and although we share them online it is not quite the same as sharing it with them offline. Yet, crowding around a computer or trying to hook up the proper cables to a T.V. to be able to share the stories that go along with the images can be too much of a hassle. That is why bringing the projector back into style and giving it a new-aged twist for the iPhone will make story-telling of your experiences come to life all the better. …
