Macworld 2010: Professional Sounds For Your DIY Recordings
I'm an admitted fan of Blue Microphones, not only for their power, but also for their beauty — a few of these stacked on your mantel could totally double as art. While cruising the Macworld show floor, I got an up close look at a few of their new desktop mic models which would be perfect for recording on the go, or creating your podcasts and video blogs. The Snowflake (pictured here) ($45) is a Read more
The Week in Geek
This week's big Google Buzz announcement may have been the hottest news item, but I found some great new products at this year's Macworld Expo, started gearing up for Valentine's Day, and got excited about this year's Olympics. Check out these stories and others you might have missed this week in my weekly recap. Read more
Urban Performer Unit: Love It or Leave It?
I finally got my hands on the UrbanTool Urban Performer Unit that I've had my eye on yesterday at Macworld, and although it didn't disappoint —coming with a secure place to store my phone, an adapter so I can play my tunes as I'm on the move, a compartment for a wallet, lush leather, Swarovski crystals — it did come with sticker shock: $500! This clutch is great, but way out of my price Read more
Macworld 2010: Bone Keeps Your Gadgets Safe While You Sweat
Taking a walk around the Macworld Expo is like walking into a massive Apple store. Minus the computers, of course. One booth that caught my eye was Bone Collection, which was stocked with iPod and iPhone armbands, skins, and protectors. First up: the armbands. Not only are the Bone armbands made from a tough, rubbery material to protect your gadget from accidental drops, but its strap is silky Read more
HyperMac Battery Packs Keep Your iPods, iPhones Rockin'
I passed by the HyperMac booth while at Macworld yesterday, and although I have my own pics, these photos are way better than the ones I took from the expo. That's not to say they aren't great looking pieces of machinery in real life, it's just that the contrasting colors in these promo pics are so fab, I just had to show them off. Who knew batteries could look so great? The ultra-portable Read more
Macworld 2010: More Stylish Cases From Trexta
It's opening day of the Macworld Expo and right off the bat I found something I loved: this iPhone case from Trexta, which was coincidentally one of last year's favorite brands. The cases are made from recycled paper and plastic, and allow you to draw your own design right onto the case. The covers are sold in packs of five. Other favorite items included a white leather wallet/iPhone case, a Read more
Macworld Expo: A Look Back at Years Past
I've got my camera in hand and I'm making my way over to the Macworld Expo in San Francisco! This three-day event will put me into Apple overdrive, and I'll be bringing you reviews and photos of the best (and sometimes wackiest) products out there for you Apple fanatics. But until the party gets started, check out some of my coverage and quizzes from years past. I'm getting all nostalgic for the Read more
Macworld 2010: Hard Candy iPad Cases
Things you need to think about after you win the 64GB iPad giveaway: protection. And I don't mean protection with wings. Newcomer to the Apple accessory arena, Hard Candy is hitting the ground running at this year's MacWorld by arming themselves with the first hard-shelled iPad cases to hit the market. Coming in a range of colors and designs, the Hard Candy cases, sleeves, and skins will protect Read more
Macworld 2010 Preview: UrbanTool
Although Macworld is still a few weeks away, I'm getting excited to see some of the new, stylish (and sometimes weird) products at the expo. One that piqued my interest was UrbanTool. Hailing from Austria, UrbanTool brings us a huge selection of iPod and iPhone savvy bags and cases that not only have some serious street style, but are functional as well. Each holster and belt comes stocked with Read more
