This comes via a collection of some of my favorite online humans (and one I know).

First, I am a frequenter on David Seah’s blog. If you’re a graphic designer, go there. If you have to manage your time for any reason, go there. If you like great food, go there. Eh, it’s David go, he’s great. David wrote a review of Timothy Ferris’s book Four Hour Work Week, which I’m finishing later tonight. It is absoloutely amazing. So just go get it. You know,, if you like lifechanging ideas and stuff like that.

So while following Timothy Ferris’s travels (and there are a LOT) he went and talked to the Scobleizer! ( Robert Scoble Writer/Prolific blogger/ techno-maestro /Mr. Plugged in).

Where’s the RSS reading tricks? (well just wait a sec, here they are!) Timothy Ferris and Robert Scoble got together and made a quick video of how Robert manages to put such massive amounts of information into his brain on a daily basis. (pssst,, keep reading for more!)

Remote control toys are often pretty cool, examples being R2D2 and the wall climbing car, and some are just plain old wacky, R/C Sumo wrestlers and the farting teddy spring to mind. I’m not sure yet which category this one falls in, Pterosaur, the remote control flying dinosaur.

I’m not a massive gamer but I do own a Nintendo DS which I won from a machine at a bowling alley (something like a million to one odds there) which my daughter soon took ownership of. My friend Steve from Gadgetz4All has just sent me this nifty little gadget the M3 DS Simply Complete 1GB Kit which basically lets you play copied backed-up “homebrew” games on your Nintendo DS.

You know what they say – you are what you eat. Unfortunately, no matter how healthy a breakfast or snack mom prepares for her kids to eat during recess, most kids prefer the calorie laden, coloring infested snacks and junk food that are readily available in schools through vending machines that wouldn’t think twice about swallowing those quarters. These vending machines are pretty much dumbed down, as the ultimate objective would be to get as much profit as possible. Horizon Software thinks otherwise though, providing smart vending machines that do not aim to eat up your child’s allowance, but instead reporting each and every purchase your child makes from the machine itself.

I don’t know about anyone else but I am fed up with all the wires, adapters and plugs that come with all our beloved gadgets, there is nothing worse than trying to get a charger out of a ball of wires, especially when you know that you had put them into the draw all separately and neatly, but like some sort living organism when you need to charge up a certain device they have by some magic, twisted and rolled into one mass. Now Callpod have developed a new charging system called Chargepod.

Being in control of one’s bladder is a subjective thing, as some of us are born with naturally weak bladders, making us an expert as to which public toilet is the cleanest. Others who have the misfortune of suffering from nerve damage or other conditions also lack the level of bladder found in normal people, which is why Ms. Angelene Ozolins has designed the AssureFlow concept device. This unique device comes with a switchable on-off tap for the bladder which is controlled manually, providing a person the level of dignity and control never available before in an ingenious concept.

Not as simple/easy to install as the Load Thing, this device is far better-looking and, most important, it doesn’t get in your way. I ripped two Load Things out of their sockeets, phone flying through the room and stuff, just because I dared to forget that there was a 20-cm plastic-and-textile thing sticking out of the wall.
