A headphone splitter designed as a tree branch

A headphone splitter designed as a tree branch

Ever wish you could share your music with friends when hanging out in public or perhaps when riding the bus or traveling on a train? Having one mp3 player and headset can be quite annoying to share when you have to listen to the songs you love in mono if willing to lend the second part of a headset to your buddy. Not to mention the constant ear pulling or dropping of the headset piece if anyone were let’s say… move. …

The life of a student has certainly changed from the college days with dial-up, kids today are heavily reliant on the Internet and technology in general (just like us non-students too). The difference from the days when we were students are plenty, including the sight of books, in today’s modern students life technology is where they gain a lot of their associated knowledge from . …

An Internet search done the Mad Men way

The majority of us know what technology was like several decades ago, and perhaps some of us experienced it firsthand. User interface is quite important within today’s technology, since their word of mouth play a crucial role in your overall marketing, and if easy navigation is not possible, they move on. Could you imagine if we never advanced? …

A breakdown of the average corporate e-mail [infographic]

A breakdown of the average corporate e-mail [infographic]

E-mails were genius back when they first began; the idea of easily sending words and attachments to another person anywhere in the world was astonishing. Today it has become a common First World Problem complaint that we all too often whine about having too full. With that said emails are still proven to be useful and have yet to be replaced by any other form of communication. …

V3Solar Spin Cell transfers light into electricity in nanoseconds

Many theories believe that solar energy needs to be derived from a flat surface, “with the current theory estimated e that a square meter of sunlight has a maximum energy content of 1,000 watts. Based on this, a 20% efficient photovoltaic (PV) panel should produce 200 watts of energy from one square meter of sunlight.” …

How the visually impaired uses Instagram on the iPhone

It is amazing how our technology has advanced far to exclude ignorance that some may assume that others with impairments may not be able to enjoy certain apps on a mobile device that is geared towards those who can see, much like the photo-sharing social app, Instagram. …

The most bizarre hairbrush

The most bizarre hairbrush

There are many gadgets that are odd but having a brush that purposefully helps you add water to your hair when you are in a rush and do not have time to shower is pretty out there. I can totally relate to the “sleeping in” or the “I’m running late” days that the majority of the population has encountered throughout their lives. We are certainly busier now than ever, but a shower substitute? Is that perhaps taking things just a little too far? …

Eliminate cord clutter with the circular power strip and surge protector

Eliminate cord clutter with the circular power strip and surge protector

We most certainly know by now that if you have an electronic device that needs plugging in it needs to be plugged into a power bar or something equivalent in the case that the power goes out or surges and in an instant can destroy your device. However, we are guaranteed to have more than one and as the pending Holidays approach, we are sure to gain some more. Tangled cords are not only ugly to look at but are a mess to deal with when needing to move the plugged in device, it is almost as bad as untangling Christmas lights. That is why power bars in a rectangular form can become a messy hassle, although still a better…

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….
