I did a roundup of Eco-Gadgets for WePC.

Did you know there’s a gizmo you can attach to your washing machine that cleans your clothes without detergents or hot water? Me either, but now I want one. Go have a look.

Still Geeking Out

My latest post is up over at WePC. This one is about how touchscreens kind of bug, and how Science is finding a way to fix them (Science!), and how I want a screen that gives me the tactile experience of popping bubble wrap, because it’s not enough for me to pop bubble wrap in real life anymore.

Please go read it. Thank you.

Can You Watch This?

For those of us who still leave our laptops in the care of strangers at the coffee shop when we need to use the restroom, my most recent WePC post is a roundup of anti-theft devices for your computer.

My favorite is inexpensive homing software that lets you disable a stolen computer remotely until the police can track it down. There’s also a pricey electric briefcase that envoltifies would-be thieves, but I’m pretty sure your name ends up on some government list if you buy one. Sort of like checking out Mein Kampf at the library, or muttering under your breath about Dick Cheney.

Who I’ve heard is a very nice man, by the way.

Top 5 USB Toys and More

Two more WePC posts that I forgot to tell you about:

USB Battery Charger

1. Top Five Genuinely Useful USB Gadgets, in which we discuss whether you really need a George Foreman USB iGrill.

2. What’s in Store, which is more about how much I need a foolproof backup system to protect me from myself.

Do you have any USB toys that you use all the time? Or more ideas about smart stuff to store online in the event of an emergency? Let me know.

If I Were in Charge

There’s a new post up for the WePC campaign. This one is about my dream docking station. It has shockingly little to do with Fleet Week, which is strange because “more sailors” is always on the wish list, am I right ladies?

Ahem.

Please go read it.
