Jamstik+ Smart Guitar Review: The Wireless and Compact MIDI Guitar That Needs No Tuning

When I started playing the guitar in the early 80s, I dreamed of having a cool electric guitar with some cool technology.

The Foot Hammock is a Divisive, But Potentially Helpful, Desk Tool

Most gear reviews aren’t terribly controversial or difficult. Occasionally we’ll test hardware that doesn’t work right, or a piece of software that’s buggy. But The Foot Hammock was such a headache to install I nearly gave up on the whole review, until my coworker fell in love with the concept and convinced me to give it a try!

Road ID Gives Parents and Kids Peace of Mind (With a Little Bit of Style!)

We bought a Road ID Slim for my son with food allergies, and we’re very pleased with our purchase!

Have you ever thought about covering up your Macbook? What about giving your iPhone a nice wood feel to it/ Well I had the opportunity to do both when I received Cover-Up’s Woodback collection for the Macbook and iPhone 6 Plus.   If you’ve never been interested in having real wood on your devices, you might need to take a look at Cover-Up’s products. Hand crafted from real wood, and made in Wales, the products each came individually packaged and once I opened the box they came in, the smell of fresh wood caught my attention before the actual look…

The Ridge Wallet Makes Carrying Your Cards Safe And Light!

A good wallet is hard to find, and essential to my everyday carry, separate in its own pocket from my cell phone. But one thing I’ve always struggled with is finding a decent wallet that isn’t just your traditional black or brown, and doesn’t leave a lump in my pocket. And my problems may have been solved with the Ridge Wallet 2.0.   I had the opportunity to review the Ridge Wallet, which is a minimalistic wallet that simply does exactly what the company said it would when they originally launched a Kickstarter back in 2013. After raising over $250,000…

USBFever Clip-On Lenses Enhance Your Mobile Photography Quickly and Easily

I’ve written quite a bit on the topic of smartphone photography in recent years. In the area of expanding the creativity in capturing images with these devices there has been some type lens converter required and usually that necessitated a dedicated case/lens combo. Not anymore, though, thanks to USBFever and it’s new line of clip-on lenses!
