Diving mask snorkel with built in camera

Diving mask snorkel with built in camera

Some of us are prepping for the Holidays in the cold and snow, while others are preparing for a flight to a warmer destination. Not everyone enjoys the Holidays in sleet and snow; some much prefer beach and sand. Not to mention the ocean, that is usually a highlight of any hot spot vacation. Snorkeling and seeing the world beneath the water is breathtaking, you almost want to share every colorful fish with all your friends back home and now you can easily without intruding on your personal experience. …

Can Twitter

Can Twitter's photo edit options really hurt Instagram?

The short answer – yes, a little. There are rarely moves made by one social company that make me believe they can really hurt another social company, but this one is different. Instagram’s relationship with Twitter has been one of love and hate since before anyone realized there was a growing tension between the social networking giant and Facebook’s mobile secret weapon. The fact that Twitter added filters to their photo apps will not strain the relationship any further; in essence, there is nothing really left to strain. Facebook started the ill-will in April when they purchased Instagram….

A remote control bottle opener

A remote control bottle opener

Men gather around as I announce to you one of the most genius integrations to one of the most popular gadgets known to man, the remote control. We love cracking open a beer or two amongst friends or as we unwind from our hectic days after work and especially if sports are broadcasting upon our screens (clearly not the NHL.) This invention is loooooong overdue and makes me wonder why on earth it has taken this long for the remote control to have a bottle opener built in is beyond me. …

These days when creating an advertisement your best bet at success in gaining the attention of the viewers is by tapping into their emotional chest; building a storyline that people can relate to, that is creative and ultimately makes the viewer believe in your product is not solely based anymore on what the product is but a clever display of how the product will make you feel. …

A bicycle lane laser tail light for rides at night

I don’t know about you but I find riding my bike at night a lot less stressful since the waves of cars and crowded streets seem to simmer as the sun goes down. Bicycling is a great form of exercise and can also get you from A to B, but can you do so at night carefully? It sure can be hard navigating by the moonlight. …

The robotic crumb cleaner

The robotic crumb cleaner

Crumbs are tricky and most certainly messy. They leave a trail of what you have eaten behind you and when trying to clean it up it always seems that you make it worse. Using a dish cloth never makes it easier, nor a sponge and the feeling of wiping crumbs into your hand just feels unpleasant. Now there is a robot to clean it up for you. …

Should car dealers focus on technical expertise instead of price and gimmicks?

Should car dealers focus on technical expertise instead of price and gimmicks?

Next to computers, tablets, and smartphones, our cars are often the most technologically-challenging item that we deal with on a daily basis. Every model year brings out new gadgets and gizmos that are designed to enhance, adapt, and often-times engage with other technologies that we carry with us. Tablets are used as owners’ manuals. MP3 players have become our stereos. Speakers and mics interact with our phones for hands-free driving. These are the common examples. Today’s cars can do so much more. The advertising on the OEM level often focuses on technology. Why do so few dealers do the same?…

A DIY cheating calculator

A DIY cheating calculator

We are not ones to promote cheating in any regard, yet when something is “oh-so-clever” we can’t help but be amused at the lengths this generation will go to make cheating easier and let’s face it, it truly isn’t all that difficult with as much technology we have available to us. However, schools have caught on and cut out mobile devices in classrooms, but calculators? Oh no, calculators still get an A+ from school officials and here comes the clever part. …

Conquer land and lake with a Gibbs Quadski

Conquer land and lake with a Gibbs Quadski

The outdoors types of the world have benefited from recent technological advances that make exploring the world easier, more enjoyable, safer, and often more in-depth. It’s one of the promises of technology – simplifying processes. One such simplifier is the Gibbs Quadski, dubbed the “world’s first HSA amphiquad.” In four seconds, it is able to go from land to lake and back again. It isn’t a slouch at either type of terrain with boasts of speeds up to 45 MPH either way. Here’s a look at it once transformed for water use: As Jeff Sabatini at Car and Driver puts it: The big draw, of course, comes in that…
