“Pimp Star Performer IP Black” LED watch is fun and unique
I love watches and especially when they feature LED lights. Check out this uber cool “Star Performer IP Black” LED watch from Tokyoflash that looks like it's straight off a spy movie. It is extremely stylish and it is made out of solid stainless steel and a mineral crystal lens. This makes the LED's very vivid on the screen. It has a great display with four modes which indicated by icons of the clock, sun, $ and a martini glass. The clock represents the time, the sun shows the day and date, the martini glass is for indicating the night time and the $ is representative of the year and the money you should be making. The coolest feature here is the light up one that animates once a minute from 7 pm to 1 am. The color schemes available are white, orange, blue or multi-colored LED. You can buy it only here.

Babyglow: Garments that warn parents about rise in baby’s temperature
It takes a lot of time and experience to understand and communicate with your new born. That is why usually invaluable time is lost and the little ones health is affected when parents are unable to detect the sudden rise in their baby’s temperature. But thanks to Chris Ebejer’s latest invention –Babyglow, parents can heave a sigh of relief. This ingenious product will prevent your babies from overheating by signaling to parents when the temperature rises. Babyglow is a unique garment that changes color with the baby's temperature so parents will know when their child is getting too hot and help prevent catastrophic illness. Overheating can cause a baby's brain to shut down and is also an indication of illnesses such as meningitis. So Mr. Ebejer’s invention will definitely be a blessing for parents all over the globe. The Babyglows come in pink, blue and pastel green, all of which turn white as soon as the baby's temperature rises above 37c. Mr. Ebejer got his idea after watching a documentary about babies and since then he has spent over six years and £700,000 ($1,145,900) working with scientists to develop the pigments to embed into cotton babygrows.
Bluetooth Shoe can get you stalked on Facebook
Facebook has been brutal enough to tempt users to make public, what’s on their mind. Now they take a step forward with the help of shoes like these that can give away your exact location. The concept is quite simple. The shoes, called Blue GPS, trace the wearer and inform friends and family about the whereabouts. The user has to input about five phone numbers into his phone and presses a button on the shoe to activate a link that makes him/her traceable. The shoes can be paired with most of the Bluetooth enabled phones available in the market. Bringing out the finer aspect of this technology, we can see the significance of these shoes boosting the usability of social networks, thus proving to be life savers sometimes. Besides Facebook, the Blue GPS shoes can also be traced using other such sites.
