I?m also in the Tech Link chain
2007-03-08 05:30:11
Tech Link chain is new blog-game going around in the blogosphere. It is just a list sharing on technology blogs you read or write. I was introduced to it by Phalgun and now I’m continuing it. Now here I’ll mention some technology sites or blogs which are not on list and then the train will go on with the people I linked. Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and link back to the blog that put you on the list in the paragraph. This isn?t a suggestion. You need to break up the duplicate content string. Someone took the time to add you so the least you can do is give them an extra linkback. Copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your blog. If you would like a different keyword for your blog then change it when you do your post and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword. Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the ?Originals? list. Add no more than 5 new TECH, SCIENCE, or CONSUMER ELECTRONICS blogs to t...

Evangelion NERV mouse
2007-02-16 05:19:03
Although, there’s nothing particularly great or exciting about this mouse, anime fans who follow Neon Genesis Evan gelion or simply Evangelion will love this mouse. This is because its a mouse branded with the Nerv logo, and a cool red light underneath which is plenty of value for Evangelion fans. Besides this feature, there’s nothing else it has to brag about besides the fact that it comes with a 800 dpi optical sensor. Now you can get your own NERV-inspired mouse, complete with NERV leaf, red laser glow and Apple-ish design for a mere $32 (around Rs.1500) Sponsored By: XavierShack The no.1 social networking website - chat, forums, blog, SMS and many more… Share This

No need for invites now, just go and signup for Gmail now!
2007-02-15 11:17:14
As per an Associated Press (AP) report, starting today, Google’s free email service, Gmail , will shed whatever remains of its invitation only restrictions, to become truly open to people world-wide. This marks a first since the launch of Gmail on April 1, 2004. As such, in the US, Canada, Mexico, and large parts of Asia and South America, invitations will no longer be needed in order to sign-up for Gmail. Keith Coleman, Product Manager, Gmail, described the development as “a pretty momentous time for Gmail”. Co-founder, Sergey Brin, said Gmail has become a ‘real cornerstone’ for Google, and that therefore, making it more widely available is important for the company. Google’s move implies that the company now believes they have adequate computing capacity to accomodate a generous amount of free storage via email. As it is, each Gmail account gets at least 2.8 gigabytes of storage -enough to fill nearly 1.4 million pages. However, Gmail will conti...

Titan USB Flash Drive
2007-02-13 11:14:05
Made by creator Slava Tyukalov, the Titan USB flash drive is constructed from a graphite/aluminum composite metal matrix that is traditionally used by NASA and other space agencies. This matrix is then covered in titanium (yes, the same thing that space shuttles are made of) to avoid corrosion. This makes the drive a waterproof, anti-shock, and anti-static drive that can withstand 2,000 pounds of pressure. The 1GB model costs $197 (about Rs.8900) whereas the 2GB costs $247 (about Rs.11200), which is not that expensive when you consider it’s a partially handmade product that is limited to 100 units produced. No word on the availability in India yet. Share This

U7 from Tomato
2007-02-11 17:13:03
Not sure why any company would go and name their portable media player “Tomato U7 but one thing’s for sure, the U7 may be small, but it has a host of features included. Weighing 25 grams, and its size being 38 64×14mm, it’s smaller than a common cellphone and it yet manages to fit a 1.8 inch CSTN screen that displays 65k colors. It comes in 512MB, 1GB or 2GB sizes, and plays a bunch of formats, including the usual MP3, MP4, WAV, WMA, ASF, OGG, WMV, AMV, JPEG. Aside from that there’s an FM tuner, voice recorder, equalizer, e-book reader and games. Battery life is clamed to be 10 hours. However, it looks like it might only be released in Korea and we have no idea how much it costs. Share This

Bluetooth Boombox
2007-02-10 23:11:02
The company Parrot seems to have a love for things with Blue tooth , and their latest product is a clear indication. The Parrot Boom box (that’s what they named it) will play music off your Bluetooth-equipped cellphone or MP3 player (wirelessly) and gives an output of 60W. With the usual Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR mojo (including AD2P and AVRCP), this baby ensures as little loss in quality as possible. Parrot’s also seen fit to include an RCA input for those that haven’t gone completely wireless. While the “boombox” targets mobile device users, it measures approximately 17 x 7 x 8.8 inches and weighs 12 pounds. Set to be released sometime in the second quarter of this year, this piece should be just under $13000 when it comes out.

Genius G-Note 7100 Digital Pad
2007-02-10 11:10:01
We’ve all been in a situation where we needed to jot something important down and couldn’t find anything. Also it’s not that we all have a Tablet PC wherever we go to take digital notes, and the problem with the old pen-and-paper-style note taking is that you have to spend unnecessary time going through what you’ve written later. The new G-Note 7100 from Geni us seems to be the solution. Its a digital tablet that stores up to 100 pages of notes written with pens that have been provided with the tablet. However, unlike similar devices such as the Aiptek MyNote, Cross Crosspads, or Logitech iO series of pens, which require a special surface or paper, this one lets you write on standard, everyday legal pads. With a resolution of 2,000 LPI, 32MB of on-board memory, USB connectivity with XP and Vista PC’s as well as bundled handwriting recognition software, this one is more likely already on many people’s wish list. With it just being released, the 710...
