As I’ve told you before, the worst annoyance is when someone calls you up and leaves you this long voicemail when you really don’t want to answer any calls from him or her. The good news though, is that if Pinger, a technology used to send free voice messages, works, then we would never have to worry about a thing. How it works is that, if one wants to send you a message at an odd hour but doesn’t want to rid you off your beauty sleep, then he can simply call Pinger, leave the voice message to you or a group of people as they case may be, and you can simply call back Pinger’s local number, and lo, you have all your voice messages playing to you one after the other.

Okay if you’re an ardent soccer fan, chances are you already have everything around you screaming that fact out loud. But if you’d stop at nothing short of having everything that has Soccer imprinted on it, how about the cute and adorable looking Mustek’s Soccer Ball shaped all-in-one Digital Camera? Read more
If you’re someone whose creative bone has been itching for quite some time now, here’s something you can do to keep yourself busy and impressed. If you’re a typical junkie that likes to add a little bit of you onto everything, how about using your old cassette for your iPod to snuggle in?
What you see up there is a cassette shell for your first or second generation iPod nano, which you can bag for a mere (scoffs) $45 from 45 iPod Cases. Read more
Okay, solar energy may definitely be the answer to all our energy needs in the future, but then a bike doesn’t really need a lot of energy saving, does it? You’d gladly use it for all its worth if you’re up for saving some bucks on gas and also beat the traffic. The EV Sunny Solar electric bike therefore, isn’t exactly the kind of thing that is likely to sell by the dozen the day it’s launched. Read more
Now, if you’re a journalist and you’ve been covering news for a while, you know the tediousness of carrying your camera + laptop+ Dictaphone and everything else to just get it all set and ready for broadcast or print right?
Well, the Dictaphone part I guess gets take care off by your cellphone, but to relieve you off your other burdens here’s FlipStart’s $150 Snap Camera. Read more
Now, if you’ve had an iPod for more than a year, your closet must sure be full of its accessories and a thousand ways to dress it up or make it part and parcel of every part of your body (well, not every). If you thought those guys have run out of suggestions, you’re mighty wrong. Read more
I completely dig networking sites. They are just the best way to open your eyes to the world, connect, share, gossip, exchange, bitch about people, just about everything. Sure I’m not a mom, nor am I juggling between a lot of things, but then plenty of women out there who do so beautiful, Work It, Mom! is the ultimate networking site. Read more
I hope this is not the best to offer in the consumer market, other than non corporate and government based spying; sigh, welcome to the land of homeland security. What would be the most inconspicuous thing to carry in a mafia drop where everybody is in there with Armani’s’ and desert eagles? A Wrigley’s… not quite.

Remember all the hoopla about the $100 one laptop per child concept? Well, as happy as it may sound, the concept might never take off, if the prices of the initially announced for $100 laptop keep rising the way it is. It started at $100, then $130, then $148, $176 and finally a $188. I’m sure it’s got to be one laptop for two children now.
Well the concept did become a rage when it was announced and it is believed that companies and goverments of developing nations had signed up for it in bulk, which of course means that the prices should come down right or atleast be easy to maintain? Unfortunately that’s not the case, and the manufacturer insists that rising nickel and silicon prices and currency fluctuations are some of the factors responsible for it. Read more
With the severe crunch for space that we have these days, we sure would love to dual up things. What you see up there is a speaker bookshelf that was developed by Pottery Barn’s PBteen division. It is basically nothing but a bookshelf and speakers built into one. I think it’s a pretty neat idea to store all your books and CD’s on it, and just be able to connect your iPod or MP3 player onto those and get some pimpin hot music playing while you do your chores.
