Netrunner: Ahora puedes trabajar hasta estar en forma

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

Si a través de los años te has transformado en uno de esos adictos que no pueden abandonar nunca sus computadoras portátiles por un minuto excepto cuando están durmiendo, entonces has visto como tu panza sigue poniendo distancia con tu mesa de computación por bastante tiempo. ¿Y que vas a hacer al respecto? Todo el trabajo y la charla y la conferencia no te deja mucho tiempo para nada, ¿verdad?Quizás el Netrunner que ves aquí es la solución para eso. Es básicamente un sostén para tu computadora portátil que puede ser adosado a tu cinta de correr para así dejarte hacer todo el trabajo mientras quemas esas calorías adicionales. Una gran idea, claro, pero nuevamente, ¿cuantos de nosotros pueden jadear en la máquina de correr mientras mantienen su mente alerta y enfocada en el trabajo? (more…)

Filmaciones de vigilancia de cámaras: ¡Eso sí que es una telenovela universal!

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

Las zonas dominadas por cámaras de vigilancia siempre han sido una fuente de molestia para el viajero cansado, pero ¿Cómo les sonará la idea de disfrutar filmaciones en vivo de más de 600 cámaras de vigilancia alrededor del mundo? Buenísimo, ¿no? Créanme, yo ya estoy teniendo ideas. SurveillanceSaver (que de eso estamos hablando) es un protector de pantallas OS X que muestra imágenes en vivo de más de 600 cámaras de vigilancia de todo el mundo. Imagínate la belleza de esta telenovela. Interesante por demás, sin embargo, como todas las grandes cosas, esta está actualmente en su fase alfa, lo cual significa que pasará algún tiempo antes de que podamos acceder a ella con todas sus bondades. Más aún, están trabajando en una versión Windows también, de modo que tú y yo no necesitamos cambiar nuestras lealtades.

Smart Wardrobe : Perfect for the Closet Queens

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

Seriously, the Smart Wardrobe is what I have in mind all these years. My cabinet is overflowing with clothes and I’ve always wanted to have a computerized walk-in-closet. But I don’t live in a mansion so I have to live with just buying cabinets to store my new clothes. The Smart Wardrobe reminds me of Alicia Silverstone’s character Cher’s closet in the now classic movie “Clueless” where she had a remote controlled closet and Princess Mia’s closet in “Princess Diaries”. For my own closet, I thought of taking pictures of my clothes and shoes and upload them to an online album that I could easily browse. (more…)

iSlip won’t let you go pick your baby while at work!

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

Well we all have stuff to do during our typical weekdays, be it running some important errand or picking up the baby from school, and we’re all great doing that, so long as we are not disturbing our work schedules, right? But the fact is that the white-collared guys in the Goverment don’t think so or well iSlip helps it not to think so.

Just in case you were planning to skip the next big hearing and take your goverment-gifted vehicle and run to pick up your baby, think again. (more…)

You can Redial Back to the Future

Tuesday, November 20th, 2007

Remember Michael J. Fox? The hover board is back, baby, but this time it works with your phone, so we had to put wheels on it. Alright, don’t look so lost yet. I will tell you why. This skate board has three wheels instead of the hover board, as this thing can be
controlled by your mobile phone. Now that’s cool, isn’t it?
This three wheeled skateboard will give you the ability to be
controlled through Bluetooth and an HTC phone. But then again, what if you are controlling the board while you ride it and suddenly you get a call, or what if it’s just a dropped call? (more…)

Wireless finger mouse: The wedding ring for internet affairs

Sunday, November 18th, 2007

Okay, so we’ve seen tonnes and tonnes of wireless computer appliances, so seeing yet another wireless mouse is not something that amazes us right? But what might set our hopes high on this one, is th fact that it’s wireless and can be worn like a ring around the finger. Yeah, it means quite a few more buttons that you learn to deal with, but this one makes up for it all by looking good. (more…)

The Booksnap Scanner: Scanning at 500 pages an hour

Sunday, November 18th, 2007

Anyone who’s worked at a startup library knows how painful it can be to scan all those new books everyday and keep track of everything that’s on the shelf. Flipping those thousands of pages are equivalent to more than any of the pennies that you’re paid for the task. Maybe the Booksnap scanner that you see up there would provide you the much needed releif. (more…)

Ground Surf: The Ecstacy of surfing on land

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

We all love a lil bit of surfing don’t we? That sense of simplistic awe and smooth sway it gives you when you ripple and flipple on those waves is something that nothing else has been able to match so far. But chances are, that if the new skateboard, the GroundSurf, that you see up there that will soon be retailed by Gordon and Smith has its way, then you’re going to get a lot more than that experience, with or without the sea.
