As a self-proclaimed geek, it’s a give-in that I incorporate technology into my skincare routine. There are three devices I have been rotating regularly, and they are: the NuFACE Trinity (with Eye and Lip Enhancer attachment), the Light Salon Boost LED Face Mask, and the Medicube Age-R Ussera Deep Shot. The NuFACE Trinity is the […]
Power Issues
It’s been three days since I promised to blog regularly again. But have I written anything? No. You probably thought I disappeared again, didn’t you? I actually have a good reason for not writing… My laptop’s battery life has been less than stellar lately, so I took it into the local Apple Store. It’s never […]
Amazing 200-Year-Old Desk with Insane Hidden Drawers and Compartments
Isn’t it funny how the littlest things can bring back long-forgotten stories from memories past? Because the first thing that crossed my mind upon seeing this secretary cabinet was not “Holy crap, that’s SO COOL!” (that was my second thought), but a recollection of a beloved, long out-of-print book from my childhood: Midnight in the […]
Take the “It Can Wait” Pledge and Win a BlackBerry Q10!
Confession: I have texted while driving. Have you? (YES, texting at a red light counts!) If you have, consider this sobering fact: more than 100,000 crashes a year involve drivers who are texting. Wanna know something that’s even more alarming? Nearly half of all adult commuters and 43% of teens admit to texting while driving (TWD). And, as […]
Goofing Around with Cymera [Plasticizing Myself]
Over the weekend, my friend Carol posted “before” and “after” photos of herself using the smartphone photo app Cymera. Unlike most western photo editing apps, this Asian app (I’m pretty sure it originated in Korea, since its homepage is hosted by Cyworld) allows you to make numerous beauty edits, many of which are obviously catered for […]
Microsoft Glass [Parody]
While Microsoft may have plans for a Google Glass competitor, the company has yet to confirm anything. For all we know, the project may have long been scrapped. But that doesn’t mean the interwebz can’t have some fun poking fun at a possible Microsoft Glass, right? 😉 If you’re unable to view the video for whatever reason, […]
Prey: An Essential for Gadget Lovers
I left one very important item off my Samsung Galaxy Note II review. (And as soon as I finish writing this, I will be updating the review with a link to this post!) And that is Prey — an open-source software that lets you track (and potentially recover) your stolen laptop, cell phone, or tablet. I […]
My Samsung Galaxy Note II Review
A couple of weeks ago, I gathered up some information (how long I’ve been with Verizon Wireless, how much I spend per month, how I always pay my bill on time, and what other carriers are offering) and made a call to customer service. “My current phone is DYING,” I pleaded. “I’ve taken it to […]
Things That Makes Me Sweat and Shake
There are 3 things that make me unnecessarily nervous: 1. The “icy” warning in my car’s dashboard whenever the temperature dips below freezing. Do car manufacturers think we’re idiots? Isn’t it obvious that the roads may be icy when it’s this cold? I know that the warning is meant to be just that: a warning. But it […]
If NFL Quarterbacks Were Mobile Phones…
This weekend will determine who goes to Super Bowl XLVII. Two teams will begin to ready themselves for one of the biggest games they will ever play, while the remaining two will go home crestfallen and utterly disappointed (so close, yet so far…). Y’all know who I’ll be rooting for — what about you? In honor […]
