The title says it all really. However, let me share with you what is probably one of the silliest toolboxes I have ever seen because everyone wants a tool box with a clock, speakers, and a battery for charging phones — oh yeah it also holds tools!
One of the things that so many health trackers have in common is that they look exactly like what they are — utilitarian step counters worn on our wrists. All of them track steps, many track sleep, and some throw a few extra tricks in to sweeten the package. The Bellabeat Leaf Urban tracks steps, sleep, meditation, and reproductive health.

Well, you’re in luck! As of today Tile has introduced their Tile Slim, which is the world thinnest bluetooth tracker, designed specifically for your wallet!

Over the past few weeks I’ve had the opportunity to test out and review Tablo’s $179.99 Over the Air DVR Tuner, and there are certainly a lot of things to like, as well as some minor hurdles. One thing I’ve noticed that a lot of people are attempting to do is cord-cut, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try it myself. Currently I still have Verizon FiOS, however in my guest bedroom, when people come over, they are stuck using the Roku I installed. While its great, what if you’d like to be able to watch live tv, especially with…
