USB Self Destruct Button Hub

Those Japanese really make the craziest devices. After seeing a pillow that imitates the arm of a boy/girlfriend I thought I had seen it all, but I guess not.

This is a “normal” 4 slots USB Hub. And a nice top with working buttons. And when you press the big red button it releases some noises, […]

Design buffs would tell you that three-column themes usually don’t work well for blogs. However, WebJillion took a peek at how Technorati’s top 100 blogs are laid out and found out that blogs with three-column themes are almost as popular as those with two-columns (hey, why didn’t we think of doing this before?). Also, the […]

Technology gives them more reason to worry, as dwindling sizes and increasing capacities of portable storage devices have made it increasingly easier to smuggle data outside of company premises. Take the thumbdrive, for instance. Nothing’s stopping an employee from plugging in a […]

The Nike+iPod Sport Kit (and Some DIY)

Here’s a little something for you gym-rats and workout-a-holics out there. Remember when going to the gym was such a drag because of the tacky music? Well, I do. And that’s because the last time I went to the gym, portable digital music players were not as commonplace as today (yes, it was that long […]

I can’t believe that 802.11n has not been finalized yet, and what is even worse is how many manufacturers are trying to sell off draft versions of WiFi cards that may not work with the final standard once its decided.

The second season DVD set of Bruce Timm, Paul Dini and Dwayne McDuffie’s Justice League animated series has been out for a few weeks now. Is it worth buying? In a word, “yes”. In several words, check out my review. Long story short, while the set skimps in the Extras-department, the […]

A Scanner Darkly: Review

The film ‘A Scanner Darkly’ has been receiving much praise from the arthouse theater crowd and should be released nathion-wide relatively soon.

How the iPod click wheel works

Everyone that has ever felt or used a Click Wheel has probably wondered how it works. When I bought my Nano, I thought it would work in a similar way to a PDA, but it works even when it’s inside a sock/container or your pocket (which can sometimes be troublesome if you accidentaly turn up […]

Microsoft has released its new stripped-down operating systems for legacy (read: old!) computers that are unable to support today’s cutting-edge software due to hardware limitations (read: “get ready to upgrade your hardware when Vista comes!”).

A Newfound Love for Google Gadgets

Silly me. Just a couple of months ago, I wrote about my preference for Yahoo! Widgets over Google Gadgets. Recently, however, I’ve decided to turn off Yahoo! Widgets and run Google Desktop alone as my widget/gadget/cluttered-thingies engine.
My primary reason would be simplicity and ease of access. Yes, I wrote before that Google Desktop had tacky […]

Does anyone still use Windows Genuine Advantage these days? Okay, granted that it used to be required to do any useful automatic updating on Windows machines, these days you could update away without WGA (not via Internet Explorer, though).
