It’s always interesting to see the world from the eyes of a child. Give them a video camera for a day, and you’ll see what playing with toys and going on make believe adventures are like (sometimes growing up makes us forget what it’s like). Now try and picture what giving them their own artistic studio would be like.

You just found a prime spot to sit down and work for a while. You have your caffeinated beverage in hand, found a plug to keep your laptop charged, and all you need now is your phone charger cable. Of course, this is the one day you left it still plugged into the wall by the nightstand. You keep telling yourself you’ll get a second one so this won’t happen again, but it just never seems to happen (definitely not…

Nowadays we have a multitude of devices, many of which serve the same purpose, but come in different sizes. It’s really quite frustrating to go through each device and make sure you have all the same files, apps, etc. so you’re never in want of information. What if there was a way to wirelessly sync all of your data across any computer, tablet, laptop, or phone?

Nothing beats a comfortable couch. You can sink into it, wrapped in plushy peacefulness while all your stresses and worries of the day melt away. Even though you love swimming and hanging around the pool, the lounge chairs and floaters just don’t give you the same feeling. Pulling your couch out there wouldn’t end well, as you’d be smelling chlorine and mold any time you sit on it after that.

One of the most terrifying things that can happen to a photographer is dropping their camera. Hearing the sound of your livelihood crashing to the ground will make your whole life flash before your eyes. What would you do if you were told that there was a camera that you could (and are supposed to) toss? The people at Serveball wanted to make a throw-able camera, and came up with the Squito. It comes in ball form, and looks quite…

It seems funny that ‘geek culture’ is trendy right now. Many of the people that were picked on in gradeschool are now considered cool. That of course doesn’t change the hierarchy, as it’s more a style than a lifestyle, but hey, at least we get some cool stuff while it lasts right?

Just about every home has a ‘junk’ drawer. This is a place for all odds and ends that may or may not have purpose go and rest until needed. Of course, when you actually get around to needing one of the items in this location, it’s usually difficult to see inside of it. You would reach for a flashlight, but sadly it too is hiding within the depths of this drawer.

The quality of mobile phone cameras has vastly improved over the last 13 years. Seeing the amount of detail you can pick up is rather astonishing, but trying to zoom in immediately ruins the quality of the image. If you consider yourself a phone photographer then you’ll want to find a way to solve this issue.

There are many concerns about privacy. While tons of people share much of their lives online, few to none are ok with the thought of someone listening in on them during day-to-day activities. It seems funny that people will talk about serious issues in public spaces (at a fairly high decibel level), but don’t want anyone to eavesdrop.

There’s something comforting about playing with wet sand. It reminds you of being at the beach, and not having to worry about schedules, work, or responsibilities. The only problem is that you don’t really want to keep a cup of wet sand on your desk, as that is just a mess waiting to happen. If sand had similar properties to Play-Doh, then things would be a lot easier wouldn’t they?

The worst things to contend with when you’re trying to sleep are light and sound. Even if you’re normally good at sleeping in a noisy environment or ignoring the brightness (that you can somehow see even though your eyes are closed), there are some nights where you just can’t take it. You can make a B-line for your ear plugs and mask, but they have a nasty habit of falling off or coming out during the course of the night.

There’s a very good reason you’re not supposed to snatch another person’s mail. You can find credit cards, bank statements, and more in this tiny box that could essentially ruin a person’s life if placed in the wrong hands. While not everyone is going to go out of their way to steal mail, that doesn’t mean that some aren’t going to try.

For most of us, the morning ritual includes preparing coffee. It is our lifeblood, and the only way we can walk into work with a smile on our faces. We want the process to be as easy as possible, because we don’t have full-capacity brain function at the wee hours of the morning. Forgetting a filter or not putting water in the reservoir can start off your day in the worst way, so why not the streamline the operation?

It’s funny how many different devices you can accumulate over time. There are job-specific gadgets and gizmos that feel like a necessity, but when you travel it’s rather worrisome that you might lose a power cable or adapter along the way. You want to keep them all in one spot like a backpack or a messenger bag, but even then you have to search around your bag to make sure you have everything. Being somewhere without a way to charge…

Thinking back on Space Invaders, I remember mashing a button as many times as I can whilst dodging lines raining down upon my head. As time ticks on, you get more and more jumpy, fearing alien invaders will come down and blow you to smithereens. The music (if you can call it that) isn’t helping of course, and when a flying saucer comes onto the screen, your focus is no longer shifted to destroying the hoard of enemies coming toward…
