Tweed Gadget Accessories For Smart Transport

Maybe it's our affinity for the Doctor, who has been known to sport a Harris tweed jacket from time to time, but tweed is one of our favorite fabrics.

It's such a smart staple to have in your closet . . . or in your bag. In honor of Tweed Day (it exists), cover your tech in tweed, keeping your gadgets warm from the chilly nights of Spring.

Star Wars

Star Wars Universe Descends on Legoland

We've often thought there aren't enough Star Wars celebrations in the world.

We've often thought there aren't enough Star Wars celebrations in the world. Thankfully, our Spring is getting a healthy dose of all things Empire and Rebel Alliance with the expansion of Star Wars Miniland at Legoland California. The galaxy's best two inventions, Star Wars and Legos, join forces in seven scenes made from 1.5 million Lego bricks. Our favorite scene is also the most fearsome, that of the opee sea killer on Naboo, but maybe that's just because it's a reminder of Jar Jar Binks. The model designers even crafted three-foot-tall Lego character figurines, which is basically life-size in the Lego world, including Yoda and Princess Leia.

Ashton Kutcher

Geek Out: Who Should Play Steve Jobs in the Blockbuster Biopic?

It was the non-April Fools' joke heard around the Internet: Ashton Kutcher has been selected to play Steve Jobs in an indie film called Jobs.

It was the non-April Fools' joke heard around the Internet: Ashton Kutcher has been selected to play Steve Jobs in an indie film called Jobs. Whether or not you agree with the casting, you have to admit: on the surface, there are some striking similarities. Of course, if you don't agree that Kutcher can pull off the legendary tech innovator on screen, here's something to hold on to: the Sony-backed biopic of Jobs is still a ways off. Which means, there will be more casting news to come for the blockbuster version based on Walter Isaacson's biography.

Jobs is, and has always been, an important part of technology, remaining close to geeks' hearts to this day. If I had my way, Daniel Day-Lewis would be cast in this role already. What about you? Who would you cast in the official biopic of Jobs's life?

The Avengers Coming Early For Facebook Fans

Can't wait for May 4 to see The Avengers?

Can't wait for May 4 to see The Avengers? Maybe you don't have to. Marvel is offering a chance to see The Avengers early in cities where the film's Facebook page has gained the most fans. Screenings are already set up in LA, NYC, Chicago, Houston, and Miami for April 14, but there are five more available slots. All you have to do is get your fellow fans to like The Avengers' Facebook Page and keep your fingers crossed. You have t-minus one week to assemble; get to work!

Fan screenings will be free on a first-come, first-served basis, so if The Avengers comes early to your town, be prepared to camp out. Preferably in costume.

Tips For Recycling Your Electronics

We talk all year about properly recycling your gadgets, but since we officially kick off Earth month today, it's the perfect time to remind you about the different ways to recycle, donate, and get some cash back from your old gadgets.

We talk all year about properly recycling your gadgets, but since we officially kick off Earth month today, it's the perfect time to remind you about the different ways to recycle, donate, and get some cash back from your old gadgets. It only takes a few minutes to help others and Mother Earth, so read on!

  • Find a location near you — To ensure electronics don't end up in landfills or otherwise improperly disposed, find a certified e-waste recycler near you, who can properly strip devices of their recyclable parts. 1800Recycling.com provides nationwide resources. It can also be as easy as searching Google or Yelp for organizations that will recycle and delete sensitive information from your goods.
  • Get some cash back with Ebay's Instant Sale — Just answer a few questions about the gadget you want to pawn and Ebay will give you an instant offer, even paying your shipping costs, so you can just click "accept" and go. Once you send in your tired gadget, Ebay will properly recycle it and deposit cash into your PayPal account. Easy, fast, and truly eases the stress on Mother Earth. How can you go wrong?
  • Trade it in through Verizon — This four-step trade-in process first appraises your device, makes an offer, arranges shipping options, and then pays you for your trade-in. Start the process online by choosing your device (either by list or by photo) and answer questions like, "Can the device make outbound calls?" and, "Does the display work?" Verizon then gives you a trade-in value, with the option to either accept it or decline it. Older models may be appraised at no value but give you the option to donate the phone to a charity in need through Verizon's HopeLine program.
  • Drop it off at Best Buy — Picking up your new phone from Best Buy? On your way out you can toss your old phone in one of its electronic recycling bins, along with any other computer or component items that are just lying around your house. A clean house is a happy house.
  • Sell it — My Boneyard makes recycling your phone a no-brainer: just register your phone online, then pop your phone in the prepaid envelope you'll receive in the mail, and send it back. You may even get a cash reward (that you can keep, or donate to charity).
  • Give it back to the manufacturer — Many technology manufacturers offer recycling of their own goods. Dell, Samsung, and Apple are among those that offer recycling solutions, and sometimes a discount on future goods, to customers.
  • Donate — Donate old computers to schools in need and charity organizations like Goodwill, which uses an online donation calculator to immediately show how the product will benefit the community.
