GoG Connect Brings Together Steam and GoG for the Best Digital Gaming Service!

As a digital gaming early adopter nearly 15 years ago, who was a loyal Steam user even before Half Life 2 popularized the service, and a beta participant in the launch of ‘Good Old Games’, I have a particular fondness for both Steam and GoG. This extends to owning copies of many games on both sites, so when GoG announced that they were partnering with Steam and publishers to allow you to add specific games already bought on Steam to your GoG library, I was ecstatic! Here are the details from GoG: “Connect your Steam account and grow or jumpstart…


Native Union’s Tag Cable Is Now Available

Native Union is a brand that I trust in everything from cases to cables, so whenever they announce a new product has launched, I’m typically ON it, so it’s no different with their latest venture, the TAG, a luxury charging cable made for your bag!



Exos-Gear Commuter Series Backpack Review

As technology becomes more mobile, options to carry our gear becomes important. Personally, I prefer carrying backpacks. Not sure if its because I work in a school setting, or I just like the style. I recently was able to try out the Commuter Series from Exos-Gear ($29.95). I filled it with some gear and headed out. Let’s take a look! 






Breathe Cleaner Air in Your Home with the Emerald Air

If you’d like to get a better understanding of the elements within your home that you can’t see with the naked eye, you should be checking out the Emerald Air System. Sponsored by an Indiegogo campaign, the Emerald Air is the first air purifying system that monitors your home for the little things such as airborne pollutants, all while identifying the pollutants and filtering them out with their patented Airadicate purifying technology. The ability to place the Emerald Air Sensors in any room (up to eight rooms), the Emerald Air has arrived just in time for the spring with allergy…


B?T Vodka Is a Clear Winner

Even though I’m the biggest Whiskey enthusiast I know, I still have love and appreciation for a good vodka from time to time. So when Minnesota-based Beet Spirits sent over their BET VODKA spirit, I was pretty excited to switch it up from dark to light again. Founded by Ben Brueshhoff and Jearad Poling, the two friends created what is a very smooth tasting vodka. Now I’m no expert when it comes to spirits, but as a casual (and very social) drinker, I can for sure distinguish the bad from the good, and Bet Vodka is certainly the latter. Created…




Diamond Tears On-Ear Headphones (Rose Gold) via Apollo Box #ad

This is a sponsored post; we received compensation from Apollo Box, but all opinions are the author’s. I have previously reviewed the Monster Diamond Tears on-ear headphones, but this time, I am reviewing them through the online store Apollo Box. Although these fashion headphones aren’t my style, they are comfortable, sound great, and make a statement.


Why Are Uber and Lyft Opposed to Fingerprinting?

If you live in Austin, TX, apparently you won’t be able to hail an Uber or Lyft ride any longer. The city held a vote and passed into law a regulation requiring fingerprinting for all ridesharing drivers. This, clearly, is a bridge too far for Uber and Lyft, who have thrown an epic tantrum and pulled their operations in response.



Master & Dynamic Celebrates Their Two-Year Anniversary By Letting You Get Creative with Your Sound

One of my favorite headphone brands, Master & Dynamic is celebrating their two year anniversary in the most fashionable way possible! Announced today, the popular headphone company are releasing new colored ear-pads for their MH30 and MH40 models (which I use every day at work by the way). Available in nine different colors from Brown to Royal Blue, I’m personally feeling the Burgundy and Olive colors. If you haven’t heard about the Master & Dynamic headphones you’re certainly missing out. Each headphone made from the brand is distinctly designed, so you won’t be that guy on the train with the…


Leesa and ArtLifting Team Up to Offer Limited Edition Mattress for a Good Cause

In a very innovative partnership, Leesa, one of the first and leading online mattress companies, has partnered with ArtLifting, an online marketplace that allows disabled, homeless, and other disadvantaged artists to sell their artwork.  Together, the two have launched a retail storefront in SoHo, NYC called The Leesa Dream Gallery, a combined mattress store and art gallery.



Cut The Cords And Go Completely Wireless with NUHEARA IQbuds

Originally an Indiegogo product that was successfully backed with over $450,000 in backer money, the Nuheara IQbuds already look to be BETTER than the competition on the market! The Nuheara IQbuds free you from cables and cords, giving you a virtually wireless hands free connection to the devices you carry around with you daily through Bluetooth capabilities. With a perfect balance of features such as noise cancellation and battery life to last a few hours, I personally think the IQbuds will easily be better than the Bragi Dash headphones I reviewed earlier this year. Coming with a Companion mobile app, you…
