While we all have a penchant for using our phones as a notepad, address book, calculator, etc., we just can’t help but write things out every now and then. There are days that you want to scribble out a to-do list, and be able to cross things off (it’s a wonderful feeling, isn’t it?). The only issue with this is that you’ll need to have a writing implement handy, and keeping track of a pen all day seems a bit…

We’re all excited for the first Hobbit movie coming out next month, this is a known fact. Some will be seeing it with friends the day it comes out, and there will be those of us dressed in our best Middle Earth outfit we can muster, waiting in lines hours before the midnight showing. If you really want your attire to stand out above the rest, then you need the right props and accessories.

Using a walkie talkie with your friends when you were a kid was always great fun. Passing along messages while playing pretend, coordinating a flawless prank, or just giving Morse code a try. While these aren’t exactly an every day use sort of item, they’re still fun to have around (especially if you have kids).

There are tons of different robots out there that have taken over some of our daily chores. We have the Roomba to clean our carpets, and the Windoro to wash windows. Those are rather easy tasks to complete, but they need to be done quite often. When it comes to more difficult tasks like cleaning out the gutters, it would be nice to have a mechanical friend to help out with that as well.

Those of you suit-wearers out there know that you can make a good impression on your boss and potential clientele by looking crisp and clean. You can iron a shirt before you pack it for a business trip, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to stay that way. Sometimes there’s a wrinkle that you have to touch up in the last few minutes before you head out, which means less time to relax before work. Sure you can iron it,…

It’s always fun to to not only hear music, but see it too. It’s a pairing much like dinner and a show, as you were already enjoying something, and it improved because of an added element. There are games out there with this element to them, as well as speakers.

Well, today was the first day our town had snow. That means it’s time to pull out every blanket within a half mile radius, as well as the space heater. Typing on a keyboard makes it rather difficult to keep warm, as you have to pull your arms out of the wrap of blankets that you formed and expose your hands to the frigid air. If you don’t want to have to wear a Snuggie and gloves, hand warmers might…

There’s something about working in a small space without being able to leave that can make you a bit tense. Menial things like sitting on a pen that fell off of your desk, or hearing tapping on a faraway desk can put you into a fury almost instantly. That’s why you need to keep a stress ball handy, and your space organized and clutter-free as possible.

While we do have our favorite sleeping positions, it’s not always comfortable to lay flat on your back. Sometimes you want to curl up and sleep in a blanket cocoon, or lay sprawled out. If you want a piece of furniture that is going to reflect your preferred way to relax, then a mattress isn’t always going to cut it.

While we all know how to walk at this point in our lives, winter makes that known skill a little bit difficult. The tiniest sheet of ice is just waiting to make you fall flat on your back, which means you need to be prepared. Some of us go as far as bringing snow boots with us to work, but on days when it’s just a little bit icy out, that extra baggage may not be needed.

We are all full to the brim with ideas. Whether or not we admit it, they’re there, just waiting to be scribbled out onto paper, or plotted onto a computer. In this day and age, we use both paper products and electronics for art, music, what have you, but some people don’t want to have to keep switching implements to get from concept to reality.

Any traveling businessperson needs to make sure that their exterior doesn’t reflect the jet-lagged and overworked interior that they’re dealing with on a regular basis. One way to do that is keeping up with hygiene, and the other is to have clean, crisp clothing. Ironing a shirt can make you appear as though you’re ready to take on the day, but not every hotel has all the tools you need to make this happen. No one wants to waltz into…

Well, actually when we say fly, what we really mean is lurch around trying desperately not to hit pieces of furniture or crash through nearby windows.

We’ve all done it – dropped or put things down only to realize later we don’t know where they are. Then the hunting begins! The Gadget Hound can definitely be a real timesaver. This nifty device can help locate missing keys, sunglasses, even cell phones. Just attach a small receiver (smaller than the size of a quarter) to the items you’re most likely to misplace. Then you can track it down with the transmitter. Each Gadget Hound includes four or…
