Read MoreWebbrowserpassview – the scariest freeware program in the world
Webbrowserpassview is a freeware program that automatically scans and unveils all the web site passwords stored in your Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Opera web browsers. What makes this so scary is the fact that literally anyone can now scan your laptop and immediately access your private web sites at will. The program doesn’t have to be installed, so it can be run from a USB key, and once you fire it up the passwords are automatically displayed in 2 seconds. So it’s…
Read MoreVOIP calls come to Google Voice (sort of)
I love my Google Voice account. Being able to hand out one number and know that it will ring any phone I need can be rather useful. Not to mention the ability to block numbers with the greatest of ease. One thing I’ve been hoping to see is the ability to use the number in a VOIP setting, a la Skype. Well it seems that I may get that very thing. It would seem that Google is working on implementing…
Read MoreByteSpotter Hard Drives look great, but will break the bank
I’ll admit that I’m a sucker for a nice-looking PC. I’m rather proud of my setup, and usually take into account how a device is going to look when I add something to my desk. Mind you, I won’t spend a great deal of extra money to have something nicer-looking. For instance, when selecting a new hard drive, I’m not going to pay an extra $400 to have it look really, really nice. A company called CONVAR is selling high-end…
Read MoreWireless Luggage Finder lets you know when your bags have arrived
These days flying can be a real hassle. Not only are ticket prices on the rise (along with luggage fees), but security checkpoints are worse to go through than ever. By the time you’re off the plane, all you want to do is get as far away from that place as possible. Unfortunately you can’t just hop in a taxi and go, as you need to pick up your luggage. If you were on a packed flight, there can be…
Read MoreSocial Network Access Keyboard
Though I have some personal qualms with the Facebook industry, it is a pretty big deal lately. Ok so it�s been a big deal for a while. It seems we don�t really use the site to it�s full potential. There are a lot of people I know who run businesses much better because of Facebook, but they still aren�t using everything on the site that they could be. The new SNAK (Social Network Access Keyboard) helps you easily access different…
Read MoreTrendyKid Wash And Brush Timer
Kids always have a tendency to want to skip brushing their teeth or washing their hands. Either that or not nearly long enough to keep clean and free of cavities. This Wash and Brush Timer is a very easy to understand timer that has a 2 minute time limit for while brushing teeth, and a 20 second for washing hands. Once pressed, The giant light on the bottom will flash green faster and faster until it expires into red. This…
Read MoreFacebook is now streaming movies
If you have the desire to stream a movie to your computer, you have plenty of options. Netflix and Hulu come to mind, along with half a dozen others. Of course there is a new kid on the block hoping to deliver video to your computer. Strangely enough, that kid is Facebook. I’m really not sure why on earth Facebook needs to stream movies. After all, the videos and music on people’s pages is what drove me away from Mypace….
Read MoreGoogle Maps Navigation now guides you around heavy-traffic areas
There’s nothing worse than leaving the house early, only to get stuck in traffic, causing you to be late in arriving at your destination. If you’re lucky, you might flip on the news at the very moment they are announcing a wreck on the very road you were planning to take. However, most of the time you don’t know about the backed up cars until you’re in their midst. If you use Google Maps Navigation on your Android phone, you’re…
Read MoreThe Woofer turns your dog into a walking speaker
There was a time when it wasn’t all that uncommon for someone to be walking down the street and blasting music from a boombox. These days people are mostly content with using earbuds and keeping their tunes to themselves. However, if you want to share your music with the world, you needn’t lug around a giant contraption to pump it out. All you need is your dog, and a Woofer. The Woofer is a speaker that is integrated into a…
Read MoreCellBlaster UV Cell Phone Sanitizer
There can never be enough cleaning supplies in the world to keep up with how many germs there are. One of the biggest things that I hate touching on a consistent basis but have to is my phone. I know that may sound strange, but there are times in the day where I can run to the bathroom before washing my hands to touch my phone. Even though I might come out of the bathroom with more germs than I…
Read MorePhosphor Watches tell time with revolving crystals
Though there may be a lot of interesting watches out there, I�ve got to say that I like this one the best. Mainly because it makes clicky noises when the time changes, but it has a really neat concept. The American watch brand Phosphor has a wristwatch out named the Phosphor Reveal, and is the first mechanical digital watch that uses Micro-Magnetic Mechanical Digital technology.� That�s likely a giant tongue twister made up by the company, but it still sounds…
Read MoreDIY Bluetooth Glove turns your hand into a headset
Though we all do love our cell phones, the amount of times we drop, break, or lose them makes us wish we didn�t have to pull them out of our pockets to talk on them. Yes, there are those Bluetooth headsets that you can wear, but no one likes people that wear those. Thankfully, there are some geeks out there that have crafted a perfect solution, dubbed the Bluetooth Gloves. It may sound a little off, but it�s something we�ve…
Read MoreNecono Cat Camera is cute and tiny
Japan gives us many strange things that we will surely not find anywhere else. For example, this orange striped white cat is actually a camera that has magnetic feet. Why you may ask? We have no idea, but it winks at you to make you feel good about yourself when you take a photo. Though this may be a little strange, it�s still a pretty decent little camera. He hides a microSD slot and a USB port in his belly…
