I was recently directed to look at the DiskGO Secure GUARDIAN Flash Drive from EDGE Tech. It actually looks like a pretty sweet product. The two key features that they promote about it are it’s durability as well as the hardware based 256-bit AES encryption. Not bad for up to an 8 [...]

A friend of mine recently posted a link to the “Bread Breaker Dual-Fuel Hybrid Grill“, a very expensive barbecue which allows you grill over a variety of flame types (wood, charcoal or gas) and even combine flames for unique smoky flavors. On looking at it though, the barbecue seems to lack a certain visual [...]

So I think I’ve found the next car I’d like to buy for commuting purposes. The MDI Air Car runs completely on compressed air, and can be driven up to 200-300 KM’s on a single tank of air. It has no pollution, and in fact uses some of the air from the exhaust [...]

Pictured on the right, the Core fuel cell is completely detachable from the bike, and is intended for use in multiple applications [...]

According to the article on BBC Mathew Nagle, the man on whom the device was tested, has been paralyzed from [...]

The GumStix NetStix is one seriously small computer. Measuring a mere 1×5 inches, the machine has a 400MHz Intel processor, 64 Megs of internal memory and a CompactFlash slot for expanding the memory. The coolest part? It’s Linux based.
