Sidekick LX Review: Takes Me Back to Simpler Times
When HipTop launched the Sidekick II back in 2004, I was 100 percent on board. It was the first phone I bought that let me browse the Internet, check my mail, chat over IM, take pictures and video, and text, all in one easy-to-use device. I wore that phone out and still think fondly of it today.
Geek Tip: Share Your Favorite Places With Placefav
We all know how to navigate and use Yelp to find reviews on new places we want to try, and you probably already submit your own reviews of your favorite haunts and hangouts. But the thing that bothers me about Yelp is that it takes so much time and effort to write a good and honest review! There's a lot of pressure to write witty and entertaining commentary, isn't there?
All Good Cell Phones Go to Heaven
Upgrading your cell phone is something of a mild obsession around here, and with upgrading comes the inevitable question of what to do with an old cell phone.
Half a billion (!) cell phones were replaced in 2007 alone, with many of them going to recycling centers, but what happens once they get there? Technology Review has a beautiful photo essay depicting ReCellular, the country's largest cell phone recycling center.
My Sis Learns the BlackBerry Bold Basics
My older sis finally took her younger sister's advice and purchased a BlackBerry Bold. And since she lives in Canada, the lucky duck was able to scoop one up before the rest of us. She paid $500 through Rogers (the bigwig network there) and is on a three-year contract — yeah, bold and beautiful items don't come cheap.
I've Died and Gone to Geek Heaven
Quite frankly, I'm already over the fact that this exquisite Computer Clutch by Violet May of London is $550. Not like I can afford it or anything, but the fact that a designer is finally creating something that is just as beautiful as the machinery inside it, is worth a rave review from me. A part of the Autumn/Winter 08 collection, this Italian leather silver python clutch comes handcrafted from Spain and features a cotton grossgrain mint green lining.
Geek Tip: Use Yahoo's New Travel Shortcut
Today's geek tip is kinda like Google's movie search shortcut because once you use it a couple of times you end up relying on it a couple times a week. I'm not a huge Yahoo user, but when I read this tidbit on lifehacker I knew it would be something I'd use time and time again. Next time you need any travel info about a particular destination, just go to Yahoo and type in the location and Yahoo will provide a visitor's guide, hotel list, restaurants, flight info and a beautiful flickr slideshow.
Geeks We Love: Jason Chen of Gizmodo
Shows like Beauty and the Geek give male geeks a bad rep. I have news for you folks, not all geeks think pocket-protectors and worn corduroy pants are trendy. In fact, I know plenty of fellas that showcase the very best of geekiness: smarts, passion, chic clothing, success in their field and the ability to program your TiVo, computer or Blackberry when you’re not in the mood.
Battle Of The Vacuums: Roomba Vs Dyson Slim
A Dyson vacuum is one of those gadgets that elicits an "ohhhhh" and an "awwwww" from everyone that walks by it. Or at least everyone that's walked by geeksugar central in the last week. I attribute the giddy Dyson adulation to the British company's hoity-toity reputation (they make a jaw-dropping $2,000 model), the assertion that Dyson is the "first vacuum cleaner that doesn't lose suction" and the fact that for a vacuum, it's ridiculously good looking.
