We all know how important it is to keep our laptops off our laps and bed covers so they can stay ventilated and cool and we all know what happens when we don't, but are we really so lazy that we need stands that let us lie flat and work on our computers? Thanko has created an aluminum/steel laptop stand that's USB powered and features two fans that blow room-temperature air into your hot laptop. While the stand allows you to lay back in bed, you can also use it in more practical positions — such as on a table, sitting up in bed or in a chair. I find the notion of working at the computer while laying down almost laughable, but I do like the simplicity and practicality of this stand, which because of the fact that it's USB powered won't require any additional outlets.
As if it wasn't hard enough wearing earrings and headphones or earbuds at the same time, Hello Kitty Hell alerts us to a new, kitschy phenomenon: Hello Kitty iPod Earphone Charms. The charms serve no real function, but they fit around the bud part of your ear buds and add a little extra bling to your life. Are they cute enough to be considered chic, or are they useless and geeky accessories? Source: Techie Diva
The first time we witnessed a Rubik's Cube Cake it featured three square facelets tilted on their axes, providing a complicated "Rubik's Cube in mid-solution mode" feeling. Today I offer you a less intricate, but larger and more colorful Rubik's Cube cake created as a birthday treat for a self described geek by his mother. I adore the textured icing and rich color choice and love the fact that instead of doing a freestyle icing job she used a real cube as a model. It's geekalicous!
Welcome to 24, one of the most technologically-advanced bars located in London, England. Said to be the first fully-interactive bar in the world, 24 will feature computer controlled projections that can transform images and video on a blank canvas wall with the click of a switch. There will also be hundreds of LED lights installed that will give the venue over 1,000 different color combinations. What is really unique are the interactive projections that will react to your movements when you attempt to touch them. For instance, say you are at the bar with a glass, the projections will send light beams across the base of the drink. Or touch the bar with your hand and a light will shoot out towards you and alert the bartender that you need another beverage! Talk about high-tech service with a smile! via Tech Digest
After learning that a majority of women prefer sleek and sophisticated tech products over feminine and girlie pink products, I'm curious to know how many of you are loving these new Xbox 360 wireless controllers?

With a 30-foot range, up to 40 hours of life and two-way voice communication when connected to the 360, these controllers may boast more than just their good looks.
After falling in love with the user-friendly Pure Flip video camera, I was happy to learn that Pure Digital Technologies has just come out with the new and improved camcorder called the Flip Video Ultra Series. The ultra series, pocket-size cam comes in five chic colors including lime green, pink, orange, black and the traditional white and includes built-in software for direct uploading to AOL and YouTube. What's especially great about this camera, and Pure video cameras in general, is their ability to capture high-quality sound and video which can easily be edited and shared no matter where you are.
