Everyone loves a good game now and then, whether it’s cards, scrabble, chess or any of the multitude of free online game services on offer. The only problem with the online versions is you have to put up with lots of advertising, and maybe even pay a fee if you want pro features. Which is why this new online gaming concept is so interesting.

USB Shoe and Foot Cooler will have you foot loose and fancy free
One of the worst things in the world, is having to wear fancy shoes and socks in the middle of summer. Your feet get all sweaty and gross, and your entire body feels like it’s sweltering. Seeing as you can’t (and won’t want to) take off your shoes during the day, you’re in a bit of a pickle.

Technogel Mattress will make waking up that much harder in the mornings
When you think of a comfortable mattress, you’re probably thinking of either soft and squishy, plush yet firm, or somewhere in between. One good night of sleep on a quality mattress can set you straight for a week or more. On the other hand, one night on a terrible mattress could throw you out of wack for months.

Home Cellulite Smoother gives you a beach body without the work
It’s summer time, and that means putting on a swimsuit. While we do look forward to being in the pool and under the sun, we aren’t exactly excited about other people seeing us in swimwear. Even if you’re on a good diet with a nice work out session here and there, cellulite can still be a problem.

Functional Mermaid Tails will let you swim with the fishes
When I was younger, going to the pool meant playing pretend for hours on end. Thinking back, I can definitely remember playing some sort of mermaid game with a group of friends (which did include boys as well). If we got a hold of swim fins for your hands or feet we thought we were pretty big stuff.

BeanPad for iPad is a stand for all occasions
We want to take our iPad everywhere we go. Whether we’re cuddling up to read an e-book at night, or checking out the news in the morning, it’s almost always there. While a stand is quite useful, you may find that you’ll want to use different stands for different occasions.

Point and Click Dictionary puts the power of knowledge in your hands
It’s happened to all of us at least once in the past. You’re reading a book that you really like, and BAM, you come across a word you’ve never seen in your life. Even though you want to take the time to look up the word, but the sentence structure around it makes enough sense that you just move on (and you’re at a really good part).

Paper Passion provides the best smell in the world
We’ve all read a book that was made out of wood pulp at least once in the past, before e-readers became exceedingly popular. Not having to worry about flipping back to the right page is nice, but swiping your finger across the surface of a tablet is just not the same as turning a physical page. The look, the feel, and the smell all play a major role in how we remember reading a book.

Kumpan Electric 1954 combines serious retro cool with lots of eco loveliness
If there’s one thing we love it’s when manufacturers combine bang up to date technology with a sense of classic style. The Germans seem particularly adept at this sort of stuff – take the Leica X2 as an example – but there are also other examples we can think of which are just as good. What is it about old style design that is so cool?
Read MoreSamba Mobile offers free 3G mobile broadband for watching adverts
Well it’s another year, and so another opportunity for a new entrant to the happy band of companies offering something free in return for watching adverts. We’ve reported on this type of stuff before (who hasn’t?) but this time the difference is it’s an offering for mobile data users rather than desktop computer users. Will that change the result? Only time will tell.
Read MoreHeading to London for the Olympics? Download this first…it might help
For those of you from foreign climates (i.e. anywhere outside the M25 motorway in the UK) who may be considering heading to London for the Olympics 2012 this month, we have a little tool we feel you may want to consider downloading for your Android smartphone. It’s (possibly) guaranteed to help you save the day if you’re in a social situation near the Olympic Village and find yourself grasping for a conversational gambit or two.
Read MoreVirus Eliminating Desk Lamp brings germs to their knees
We all have a bit of a vendetta against germs. There’s nothing wrong with a few germs here and there, but we always want to keep it at somewhat of a minimum. If you receive a lot of mail, you likely try and keep it away from everything else, as you don’t know who has touched it, or where it’s been in its journey to your house.

Hone for iPhone makes sure you can always track down your keys
You’ve finally gone through all the morning rituals preparing for the day, and you’re walking out the door. Just as you reach for the car handle and sit inside, you realize your keys are not with you. After another panicked twenty minutes of rummaging and tearing the house apart, you leave for work quite frazzled.

CyberQ Wifi will let you grill out while you chill out
Having a cookout is a fun and social activity that is perfect for summertime. Eating and talking with friends can put a smile on everyone’s faces, but burning all of the food will make sure no one wants to eat your cooking ever again. If you are relatively new to barbequing, then you’ll likely want to find a way to avoid situations like that.

TentFinder makes sure you’ll always find your bed, even at the busiest summer festivals
It’s that time of the year again, where we in the West indulge our passion for all things festival. Music, arts, culture, you name it and we’ll hold a people’s gathering to celebrate it. The problem is, some of these events can be huge, which means not just crowds of bodies clamouring for the best view of the action, but during weekend events acres of tents and assorted living places jostling for position in anonymous chaos. So how can you…
