The Baggler is a very convenient shopping accessory
I completely adore shopping and have been proclaimed a shopaholic. That's why I'm fully aware of how difficult it gets to carry a trillion shopping bags all at once. Only if I had a personal assistant! But since I don't, I'll have to make do with the Baggler. This a pretty nifty device as it allows you to grab all your bags at once. I'm liking the idea. You can get the Baggler for $5. Pretty good buy I'd say.

Asahi Electric Corp introduces a Tv remote with a speaker
In a world where TV is the most dominant form of entertainment, we know the value of a remote control and there is a sea of them out there. Asahi Electric Corp has launched a TV remote that's slightly different from the average ones. This one has a speaker. The speaker has a 30mm-radius and there's a receiver unit for wireless connection. Seems like a completely pointless and useless device to me.

You can get it at here for about $39.

Gauntlet that will make you feel you are in a MMORPG in real life
Gauntlets are quite a regular item in world of Warcraft, but outside of a video game, I don't seem to really have seen or heard of this item as common place! But you have to check out this gauntlet made out of steel that is geeky and kind of like from the dark ages, all at the same time. The steel gauntlets are completely hand crafted from steel and feature a mirror chrome zinc alloy finish. I don't think I'd wear them at all though as I'd consider it a murder of fashion. For those who like to show of their nerdy/geeky side, the gauntlet is for $59.99 at thinkgeek.com.

Cell Phone Apps: The iHappy Birthday App
There’s one more interesting application on the loose, it’s called the iHappy Birthday App, which is a virtual Birthday cake for your iPod/iPhone. You can load different cakes, light the candles with your fingertips and blow them out, while happy birthday plays in the background. This application released just in time for Steve Job’s birthday on 25th February and it cost just 2 bucks! And mind you, this is better than the Lite version which only displays a cake and plays music.
Facebook the place to find love for Brits
Social networking sites have long been a common arena for finding love, but did you know that one out of four Brits are, or have dated someone they met through social networking sites. Internet market research company OnePoll.com disclosed that over a third has got back in touch with an old flame through these sites and one out of 10 have had an affair with such a person.

Ski in any season with Summer-Ski
Skiing is extremely fun, but you can only enjoy it in winter. And that's shame, because such a fun sport should be enjoyed all year around, with or without snow. That's why we have the Summer-Ski that was seen at the Toy Fair. The mechanism here is a pair of skis on wheels. Sounds like roller-blades much? You need to try it out for yourself. But half the fun of skiing are the cute winter clothes you get to wear! Can't see that happening in summer.
Gary Pons' glass and lights piano is exquisite
We've always thought that a grand shining black piano adds to the elegance of any room. But replace this black with something more transparent and you really have something to marvel at. Gary Pons' piano gives us the clear and shimmery look of crystal and is definitely a work of art. There is brilliant glass, aluminium and light in the design here. It is distinctly different than a traditional piano. However, the sound here is just as good and harmonious. If you are big into looks and want to replace the elegance of black pianos, then you can do so with the brilliance of Gary Pons' version of the piano. Imagine a romantic melody being played on while you dance by it with your partner. Perfect.
LEGO undoubtedly has the most fun business card
Usually business cards are a boring drab deal. But sometimes, a super fun business card like this comes along and you just have to write about it. The company is LEGO and all their employees get a business card in the form of a LEGO mini figure. How cool to have your own LEGO figure. They actually try to personalize it and give the figure a look that resembles the employee. I think it's a super creative card. I wish everyone used creativity like this! My respect for LEGO grows even more.
