If you are the nighttime adventure-seeker, then you probably want to make sure that you are well-seen by passing drivers. There are tons of way to light up a bicycle, but those who run, jog, and walk in the dark aren’t exactly going to want to pin a bike reflector to their back and sides now are they? There are reflective tennis shoes, but that’s not always going to be enough.

British audio company RHA have sent me a pair of their MA350 earphones to try out. They’re a nifty looking earphone and a very shiny change to your typical after-market earbuds. From the machined aluminium exterior of the trumpet-shaped driver, to the braided cord and the gold-plated plug the MA350s really feel like a premium product.

Some can’t stand looking at a clock for very long. It makes time seem to stand completely still, leaving you to wonder when it’s going to pick up again. Fans of Doctor Who know that a linear timeline isn’t exactly the way things work, as it’s more…wibbly wobbly. If you don’t mind having a constant time reminder while you lay in bed, then what better place to receive it from than the TARDIS?

Read MoreWell it’s that time of the year again. When men are men and ladies are expecting. Something. A little extra. No, we’re not talking about the summer sales, but about that most romantic of times, Cupid’s Day. Now if you’re a boring sort, you’ve probably made plans for a quiet dinner, a dozen of nature’s finest petals and a trinket or two to round the evening off. But if you’re truly gonzo, you need something different. Bold and different.

I am going to start the review on this wireless speaker by going off on a tangent. I have a good friend who had a very famous pick-up line for meeting girls. He would walk up to them and smile and say, “Do you like to dance?” it rarely worked, but it was inoffensive enough that he never had a drink thrown in his face. He was also a disc jockey (aka a “DJ”) at many of the college parties,…

One of the really annoying things about using propane gas in domestic systems is the fact that you basically play a guessing game every time you start up a gas powered device. It should seem fairly obvious to anyone that putting a gas gauge on the tank or the connector pipe is hugely valuable, but up till now no-one seems to have bothered getting it together.

We’ve all got a choice in life. We can either look cool, be cool or sleep in on a Sunday. There are no other options. But the good news is we can select the level of coolness we want, either by wearing one of the perfumes thrust at us every Valentine’s Day, or by choosing an electronic gadget that is useful and almost smooth.

They’re pampered, worshipped, indulged, detested and everywhere. And that’s just the owners. When it comes to cats, there are definitely two camps, those who think the little kittehs should be on every page of the Internets…and those who don’t. We’re totally agnostic about the matter, since our Master told us not to comment about the matter, unless we wanted a bit of a scratching.

Look around you right now. Chances are you’re within 20 paces of some form of waste cardboard…packaging, wrapping, boxes, containers, you name it. Despite the march of progress we seem to use as much, if not more, of the stuff. Maybe it’s all Amazon.com’s fault? Whatever the reason, there’s no need for us to make matters worse by just chucking it all onto landfill, as happens a lot. We should take inspiration from these people and try and work out…

There’s really no excuse anymore for having to put up with sub-standard software when you’re out and about, either traveling on business or pleasure. Not only are smartphones now delivering high quality useful software to our fingertips, but there are other options like online cloud storage which mean that our data should never be more than a click away as well. But what if you don’t want to access the Internet, how can you carry on computing regardless?

During the summer, we have a million different ways to get somewhere, because roads and sidewalks aren’t iced-over strips of death. While it can be hard to trek around during this season, bicycle lovers are particularly at a loss during the winter, as they really don’t want to travel on ice or overly salted areas. What would you do if you found a way to ride a bicycle in the snow without injuring yourself and others due to slipping?
