As USB ports, auxiliary jacks, and Bluetooth connections become increasingly standard, many of today's cars are well-equipped for both music and phone calls. If you're like me, however, your aging ride rolls along with little more than a fuzzy radio and a cassette deck. For cars like these, however, integrated music and hands-free calling are not out of reach. Here are three solutions for those wishing to bring a touch of today's tech to yesteryear's wheels... More

FURNICS slogan is "furniture meets electronic", but we're not so sure how many furniture/computer manufacturers offer see-through hard drives, individually handmade-to-order personal computers with Zebrano wood detailing, or accessories like hard drive cases made from hemp and beer mash... More

Logitech Touch Mouse M600
$69.99
Logitech

The humble mouse has seen a resurgence in the last couple of years, thanks for the elimination of visible buttons and scroll wheels. Touch and gestures are where it's at now, and Logitech throws in a stylish option with their Touch Mouse M600. Probably the most interesting feature is the M600 only requires one AA battery, with the option for two for a 6 month run time. That's one efficient digital rodent. We hope to follow up soon with a hands-on review, but for now, these are available for pre-order directly from Logitech. More

Got out of my crummy comfortable work-at-home clothes last night to sneak into the nearby Apple store right before closing to pick up a new Apple wireless keyboard. I love these compact models for their quality and small desk-friendly form factor, but like a lot of Apple products, they're priced at a premium (obviously one I'm willing to pay). That being said, I noticed later there was a decent affordable alternative from an unexpected source: Amazon. More


Another Macworld has come and gone, and while we recover from memorably pleasant Bay Area weather, we've taken the time to roundup the 10 technologies we most liked from this year's show. Although the focus on this year's expo was on iOS, surprisingly our picks are not all apps... More

I own a flatbed scanner and I'm always thankful I've got one when I need to use it. But if I had to add up the times I actually need the scanner's services, I could probably count the number of times on two hands for an annual total. That means the rest of the time, even the fairly slim form factor scanner we own takes up a lot of room. That's why something like the Doxie Go + Wi-Fi scanner seems appealing: wireless syncing, with no computer required, with the option to upload directly to cloud apps like Evernote, Flickr, or Dropbox using an Eye-Fi X2 wireless SD card. The Doxis is also 1/5th the size of a regular flatbed unit, making it well suited for both home office and on-the-go use. More

Maybe the cutest bit of wonderfully useless technology (and we mean that in a good way) since The Little Printer, Olly and Molly are a pair of social media "web robots", USB connected devices designed to reward successful retweeting with scented oils or gum balls! More

2012_01_26-keyboard4.jpgYears of hunching over a laptop in various uncomfortable positions has left a seemingly permanent crick in my neck and wrists. As the idea of severe carpal tunnel at the age of 30 doesn't appeal one bit, I'm looking for the latest in ergonomic keyboards for home use. Here are a few models on my short list for consideration... More

The Apple Magic Mouse is the bad girlfriend I just can't quit. She's certainly beautiful, and...ahem...fits nicely in the hand. But it's got two glaring issues: 1) overly sensitive touch sensitivity (yes, I already use MagicPrefs), and 2) the mouse drinks the batteries dry way too fast. This means I've always got a full clip of extra batteries charged to pop in. It may be time to consider an inductive charging solution... More

2012_01_12-Docks1.jpgThere are plenty of stands out there that elevate laptops to eye level, but when you're using a giant monitor it isn't really necessary to have it open. And why not show off that beautiful aluminum body and save space? We're getting a new office soon and these are the laptop docks we've been looking at. More
