Join This coffee cup loves you
I’m not a coffee drinker, I really can’t stand the stuff. I prefer to take my caffeine in Mountain Dew form. Frankly it tastes much better, and you don’t have to deal with those nasty coffee grinds at the bottom of the cup. Of course, that also means that I don’t ever have a reason to buy cool coffee mugs like this one.

The Picoz Helicopters seemed to jump start the series of tiny helicopters and planes that we see around these days. The latest is named the Snelflight VTOL which is a Jump Jet RC plane. VTOL means Vertical Take Off and Landing and it allows the plane to take off by just lifting off the ground. The stability of the plane in take off is controlled by a triple axis gyroscope. Power is provided by four pivoting propellers which keep the plane stable and allow it to fly around in a precise manor in full three dimensions.
USBee is flexible, stays cool
How many times have you broken a USB flash drive? I’m pretty hard on mine, and I can think of three different drives that I’ve broken. Two of them had the USB connector broken off due to me just being clumsy while the third’s outer casing just kind of fell apart. This is why I usually take interest in any such drives that claim to be resistant to breakage such as this USBee (get it?) concept drive.

New gadget can detect sour milk
Have you ever drunk milk that’s not exactly fresh? I have one time, and you can bet that it was a long time before I’d even touch the stuff again. That was especially rough because I’m the kind of guy that can live off of cereal, which is no good without milk. Those expiration dates are helpful in telling you when the milk is bad, however, there are other factors that can contribute to making the milk go sour, which is why a cool little gadget was created that can tell you if the milk is good or bad.

Coolest Trashcan ever …
And around $100, it may be the most expensive too! But come on, it’s R2D2, man! The only thing that would make this cooler is if it doubled as a trash compactor with swiss army knife attachments.

XLink combines your landline and cell phones via Bluetooth
I’m fortunate enough not to work in a large office. Generally speaking, large offices usually mean boring cubicles and annoying phone systems. The only phone lines that I worry about are my cell phone and my fax line. However, if you have an office phone, here’s a device that might make things a little easier for you.

MoGo Mouse is a tiny and cheap alternative to using your trackpad
When traveling on the road, the last thing you want to do is toss a bunch of gadgets and accessories into your laptop bag. The more you have in there, the more bothersome it is to sort through it all and get out what you need. One gadget that you almost always want to have is a mouse, but unfortunately those can take up a bit of room, unless of course you store it inside your laptop.
While this MoGo Mouse BT isn’t going to be the most comfortable mouse to use for long periods of time, it will no doubt be better than using your trackpad. What makes this mouse really worthwhile is the fact that it slips into the PC Card slot of your laptop where it hides (and recharges) when you’re not using it.
