Tidy Ruler for the super neat

by Edwin - on August 31st, 2011 There are many different kinds of people in this world with various personalities, and all of us do things in our very own quirky way (which we deem as ?normal?, of course). Well, some of us are extremely tidy, and would love to have everything in its proper place, being incapable of standing just a bit of a mess, while others feel that being more ?random? (that?s a nice way of calling it ?a mess?) is the way to go. Well, for those who are extremely tidy, you might want to check out the $11.99 Tidy Ruler. This rather interesting piece of stationary will feature a built-in hand-cranked pencil sharpener as well as a place for you to stash away your pencil in the ruler itself when you do not need it.

Why the Motorola Pro+ Is Not Enough to Woo BlackBerry Users

Though the Motorola Pro+ is an attractive evolution of the original Droid Pro (and the GSM Motorola Pro and Sprint MOTOROLA XPRT) design, the device still lacks the ease of use to attract BlackBerry users to switch. Unlike BlackBerry smartphones, which used to use the ?pearl? or trackball and have now switched to a trackpad, the Motorola Pro only has a touchscreen, capacitive touch Android navigation buttons, and keyboard, making users shift between the keyboard and the screen. While the omission of a trackpad or navigation pad seems like a minor detail, in usage, it makes a big difference in the ability to both use the device with just one hand or to navigate the OS and the device efficiently with two hands. For instance, if users were...

Twist ?n Sparkle ? Make your own soda without cluttering the counter

by Julie on August 30, 2011 � 0 comments in Kitchen Gadgets,News I was watching a rerun of Dr. Oz yesterday, which had a segment on kitchen gadgets. One of the products that caught my attention was the iSi Twist ?n Sparkle beverage carbonation system. Instead of using a kitchen counter cluttering appliance like the SodaStream product that I reviewed 2yrs ago, it just uses an easy to store wand. The wand holds a small CO2 cartridge and attaches to the top of a bottle holding your favorite liquid. All you do is twist it on the bottle, where it will automatically release the CO2. Wait a minute and remove to enjoy your fizzy drink. Their website lists a bunch of drink recipe ideas. The Twist ?n Sparkle is priced at $49.99, but can be found...

Mass Effect 3 To Be Shepard?s Last Ever Game

Phenomenally stupid �female Shepard hair colour polls aside, Commander Shepard was probably one of the most memorable protagonists Bioware has ever created. Bioware isn?t really known for drawing its protagonists? stories, however and Shepard is definitely not getting even a hint of special treatment. Mass Effect 3 is the last game featuring Shepard as anything other than a cameo (and/or Citadel shop spokesman). ?We have ambitious plans to continue this franchise going forward. Mass Effect 3 is simultaneously a couple of different things: a thrilling and epic conclusion to the trilogy as we promised our fans we?d provide for Commander Shepard, but it?s also a brand new beginning ? it?s an entry point for new fans,?

March 32nd, a new Internet series, shoots at PAX Prime 2011

by Mark R - on August 29th, 2011 While I was at PAX Prime 2011 in Seattle, I discovered a game developer known as Chromed. Most booths at gaming conventions are places where the company allows gamers to play, but this booth was a giant greenscreen cube. The reason why is because they were using the attendees at PAX to be extras in their game, March 32nd. The game is planned to be a combination of a contemporary noir story in 12 episodes, and it is completely interactive. Apparently, every character in March 32nd is nothing more than silhouettes of different colors. Their booth was set up so that it could record attendee?s silhouettes, and they will eventually appear as extras within the game before its release next Spring. It really looked...
