Going Green Never Looked So Fast
For all you eco-minded millionaires out there, Porsche has just unveiled the 918 Spdyer High-Performance Hybrid Concept Car. This little number will get an estimated 78mpg while going from 0-62mph in just 3.2. seconds. The 918 Spyder prototype combines high-tech racing features and electro-mobility to offer a fascinating range of qualities: An emission level of just [...]

30. January 2010
Now that the iPad is official, there’s some serious debate going on about if this is the right name (sounds like a feminine product) or product people want (no Flash support, built in camera, etc…). Is Steve off his rocker or is Apple the company that has captured the cultural zeitgeist? Admittedly, I’m a Apple [...]

Granted, the concept seems a little weird at first. But take another look at Musuc’s Selk’bag sleep system and you get one of those ‘why didn’t I think of that?’ moments. With the east coast being hit by winter storms and record low temperatures in SoCal, I know one thing– if this is the beginning [...]

22. January 2010
A while back I started searching for a camera to replace my Canon Powershot G9– a camera that had served me well for grabbing quick images for use in storyboards, documenting my life, etc… It was easy to use and produced good looking images. It was compact, can shoot Raw images and was versatile. However, [...]

Waterproof, shockproof and dustproof. Throw in a 12 megapixel sensor and the ability to record HD videos and it’s no wonder the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 is winning praise like “best watertight point and shoot we’ve used” from Wired magazine. A quick check on Cnet’s site and I see that Wired is not alone with their [...]

If you’re tired of the remote shuffle, whereby you grab one remote after the next to control your home electronics, you might want to step up to the Logitech Harmony One Universal remote control. Even though mid-level AV receivers come with their own programmable remotes, nothing beats the Harmony One, especially at this price point. [...]

27. October 2009
It’s starting to feel like the beginning of the holiday rush and as such, I’m looking for a new Plasma TV as a treat for myself. After doing some research, I’ve come to the conclusion that the Panasonic TC-P50G10 Plasma HD Tv is great bang for the buck. You don’t have to take my word for [...]

It comes in two flavors 720p and 1080p. For a mere $50 more, the 1080p would be my choice. Next time you’re out landing that [...]

After using the iPhone for a while, I start to wonder why all interfaces don’t behave in the same way– especially because I work on my Mac workstation. Being able to gesture with your finger tips to zoom in or scroll an image seems like the only way to work. It seems as if the [...]
