My New Dashcam – Viofo A119S with GPS
I am a paranoid gadget geek so it makes sense that I would purchase a dashcam. I am also somewhat obsessed with watching Russian dashcam videos on Youtube (trust me, you will enjoy them). I did a lot of research on purchasing my first dashcam and with the help of reddit’s /r/dashcam and several decent […]
Operation Media Center – Update 2014
It has been four years since I first installed the media center and I have gone through a few iterations since its inception so I thought I’d write an update on what has evolved. The latest additions in 2014 are as follows: Sonos system – Play1’s in the bedroom, dining room, bathroom & 2 Play3’s in […]
Operation Media Center – Update 2013
It has been a few years since I first installed the media center and I have gone through a few iterations since its inception so I thought I’d write an update on what has changed. I have recently gotten rid of the Bluray player because I used it a total of zero times. I also […]
Fred Armisen gets Google Glasses before me
I was accepted into the Google Glass Explorer program recently and am anxiously awaiting this ultimate nerd accessory so that I can film all the mundane moments in my life and traumatise everyone that I know. In the meantime it appears that Fred Armisen get to try out some glasses. I have a huge nerd […]
Aerolatte
One of the items that I use most in my kitchen is the Aerolatte. This little gadget is handy for a million different things but I mostly use it to froth milk for my coffee in the morning or to mix up some chocolate milk. You could also use it to mix up scrambled eggs. […]
My Disastrous Desk
My desk is looking pretty damned cluttered right now. I am in the process of going through my electronics stash and selling or giving things away. I hope to have this stuff cleaned up by next week. It is doing my head in. *Sigh* The life of a gadget addict is tough sometimes. A quick […]
Why I’m excited about the Amazon Kindle Fire
Amazon announced its latest line of Kindles today and the much anticipated Kindle Fire. I’m so excited for this! I have owned every Kindle since their first release and this will be no exception. I love my Kindle and I feel like I’ve been cheating on it lately with my iPad because I can’t justify […]
A smoke detector with style
Don’t you really hate those ugly smoke detectors that you have to install in your home? What if they were, um, cute? Check out this adorable detector called the Chick-a-Dee. The description from the website that sells them: Smoke alarms, which are traditionally functional rather than decorative, are a vital tool to help protect your […]
Are you a total germaphobe? Ever heard of a poopbrush? Prepare to be grossed out (and redeemed).
I admit that I am a bit of a germaphobe of the Purell in the handbag carrying type. Plus I travel on public transportation a lot which is an entirely different story of grossness. One thing that I really hate is staying in hotels and dealing with my toothbrush. At home I keep my toothbrush […]
Inkling by Wacom. A Livescribe killer?
via youtube.com I love a good Wacom tablet so this digital sketch pen looks pretty darned nifty. If I could only sketch anything other than simple happy faces… I wonder how this new Inkling pen will compare to a Livescribe pen. I’ve long thought about getting a Livescribe, but I don’t actually write that much […]
