Belkin 5-Way Headphone Splitter – the more the merrier?

We always want to share music with friends, but it’s best to do it in the legal way. This means blasting a song you love out of the speakers of what normally ends up being your phone. The only problem is you can’t really experience the song in all of its glory as it’s usually not loud enough. There are headphone splitters that will let you and one other friend listen through your own recpective headphones at once, but what…

Become your own personal trainer with the FitBit Flex

We all say we want to get into better shape, but most of the time that means we’ll hit up the gym once every now and again. When you seriously want to start trimming up, you have to really pay attention to the food you eat, activity levels, and be sleeping regularly. It’s a lot to keep track of if you’re not used to it, so having a corresponding gizmo or app to help you stay on task isn’t a…

Insect Shield Dog Bandana – when the pests are away, pups will play

You can’t help but feel bad for your canine friend when it comes to being attacked by insects outside. Putting your bug spray on them is not a good idea, and they’re likely not going to stay in range of any backyard repellent as they will want to run around and play. If you don’t want them to be itchy and scratching constantly the next day, you’ll need to do something that won’t compromise their health, but will keep the…

The Kitchen Safe – say goodbye to unhealthy eating

Keeping a healthy lifestyle is by no means an easy task. You hit a point after a meal that you want to snack on something. Many times, it’s without even thinking about it that you reach for junk food, and tell yourself that it can be balanced out with a few more sit-ups tomorrow. Of course, the next day comes and the same scene repeats itself. If you really want to keep yourself on a regimen, you’re going to need…

BladePad – Mobile gaming never looked so sharp

I’ve seen and played with a lot of mobile phone game controllers. Many of them are separate from the phone, feel very cheap, and/or are very large attachments that need to be removed if you want to put your phone back in your pocket. Seldom do you see a sturdy, slim profile device that will improve on-the-go gaming without being a burden to carry around. Last week at E3, I saw one that was actually kind of impressive.

The Doorbot – I heard a rapping, tapping at my door

Whenever you hear your doorbell ring, your mind immediately wonders who it could be. Is it the pizza guy, your mom coming by for a surprise visit, or a door-to-door salesman? Obviously you would use a little bit more discretion if you could talk to the person on the other side of the door without having to open it.

If you’re clumsy with coffee, try the Mighty Mug

Morning is not something we really enjoy. However, when it comes to pouring that second cup of coffee things don’t seem so bad. Of course, by that time you’re already at work. Some of us are a bit prone to knocking things around as we don’t reach a level of full awareness before noon. If this strikes a chord, you might want to invest in a mug that is more accident-proof.

ASUS VivoMouse wants to change the way you look at your peripherals

As technology changes, so does the way we look at our interactions with them. Form and function start to meld into each other, as a newer and better version of a product rises out of the ashes. While companies always market things as if they are making the latest and greatest, it doesn’t always mean their advertising is correct.

Peak Design Capture Camera Clip – Ready, Aim, Click!

Whenever you’re out in the wild taking photographs, you can help but feel as though you’re a quick-draw gunman from the west. If you’re a second too late on drawing out your camera, you might miss that prize-winning picture, and no one wants that. This means you need to have it readily available at all times, but you don’t want it to be hanging about your neck, as those with larger lenses can cause quite a strain on you.
