Unfortunately, we all have to deal with modern life’s little cyber-burden, the password. Some of us do so by simply re-using an old password when the system asks you to change it. Other times we use the same password but just add the month at the end. Some people even resort to keeping their passwords written on yellow stickey notes or in their wallet. None of these options, however, is very effective for protecting your valuable data. Instead, we would like to present a superior solution brought to you compliments of the US Military. (more…)

This does look like a cool way to play games, but when you really get down to what this device is, you cannot help but think that perhaps it would be possible to put together something just as good for a much lower price. The problem that I have with the machine lies in its specs.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ and a high output DLP projector with a 2000:1 contrast ratio and a native resolution of 1024 x 768 that can be scaled to 1400 x 1050. (more…)

Are you the one cracking the technological whip in your family? We know the story… you got Grandma a digital photo frame for her birthday and want to load it with pictures… only to find out that she didn’t realize cameras now feature “that newfangled digital thing” and all the photos she likes are in slide format… or worse, 35mm negatives.

Okay, so apparently this Bluetooth stuff is named after a 10th century king of Denmark who enjoyed eating blueberries a bit too much, resulting in blue stained teeth. Harold “Bluetooth” Gormson helped to unite Sweden, Norway, and Denmark much like the way Bluetooth helps to unite your wireless gadgets under a single standard. And did we mention that the Bluetooth logo is composed of the rune characters representing his initials - H and B. But that’s enough useless trivia for today - let’s move onto something much more important! (more…)

A lot of technology goes into making your cellphone work. So you would think that we would be more understanding of dropped calls and garbled conversations. Nope. Nothing gets geeks into a seething tech frenzy like poor cellphone reception… and it doesn’t help that we couldn’t resist the glossy black smoothness of the iPhone and AT&T sucks for cellphone service. Sad.
Well quit staring at your one-bar-worth of signal strength and pick up this handy Cellphone Signal Extender for your home or office. Simply mount the included antenna near a window and run the coax cable to the base booster unit. You get 2500 square feet of prime signal area (enough to cover 2-3 rooms on two different floors). We went from 1 bar… to 5 at the ThinkGeek secret headquarters and made our iPhones very happy in the process. (more…)
