Zipper Headphones

Elsie Hart — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 20:01:13 +0000

I love this concept. Headphones that zip up, or down, however the wearer likes them. They’d be so much easier to throw into a bag without worrying about them getting tangled. If only they didn’t look, well, quite the way they do. Maybe black with a little less zipper. Then they’d be sweet. Really, the more [...]

Really Tiny 8GB Flash Drive

Elsie Hart — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 18:53:40 +0000

Seriously, its so tiny I’d think I lost it while it was still attached to my USB port, and its 8 gigs! Its amazing how far flash memory has come in terms of miniaturization. Might be handy for those who use flash drives to give Vista more juice while conserving space as well. Seriously Tiny Flash [...]

Famous Songs as Alert Boxes

Elsie Hart — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 07:17:47 +0000

Imagine your favorite song as a Windows pop-up alert, or some other sort of context box. Are you imagining it? Good. Now feel like a nerd. Seriously though, I’ve seen a few of these in the past and thought they were great, but a bunch of them collected together are just freaking awesome. [...]

Its the End of GeoCities, and I Feel Old

Elsie Hart — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 20:20:33 +0000

In the changing universe of the internet, I am now, beyond a shadow of doubt, old. I am old in the “back in the day” sort of way, and I am nostalgic. GeoCities is being shut down this year. I remember when GeoCities was the biggest thing online. A person couldn’t go two clicks in a [...]

Amazing Keyboards

My keyboard is boring. I normally wouldn’t say that. In fact, I like all of my keyboards, especially the one on my MacBook. Still, after having seen HongKiat’s list of amazing and unique keyboards. Some are weird and frivolous, some are just too cool, and between all of them I can easily say that [...]

But you know you want them, I mean really, who doesn’t want a pair of medieval-style gauntlets. ThinkGeek via Gizmodo

Kindle 2 Released – Hideous

Elsie Hart — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 17:51:07 +0000

Amazon has released the Kindle 2, roughly a year after the release of the Kindle 1. They seem to have bowed to every complaint leveled against the original and altered the new version accordingly. The result: Everything that was great about the original is gone, leaving an ugly flat thing that looks less like a [...]

Exploding Cellphones

Elsie Hart — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 17:57:58 +0000

Seems like a lot of cellphones have been exploding lately. No seriously, exploding. And those explosions have been killing people. Okay, so its two deaths and there’s a likelihood that they were caused by defective third party batteries, but still when it comes to phones that nearly everyone in the country carries around every [...]
