Our first robot! Meet Drobo

As I’ve mentioned earlier, I am a total gadget freak. Not a day goes by when I wouldn’t want to upgrade everything I have in my hub of entertainment, but eventually my nearly Vulcan logic wins and I do nothing. There was one thing, however that caught my attention like a two foot steel pole [...]

HP asks $298 for two keys

The Consumerist is a site I’ve been following for a very long time. Being a person working in marketing, I think it’s very important to see the everyday mistakes companies make, how they affect consumers and eventually how the shit will hit the fan and everything will be FUBAR. Good customer service is the only [...]

The Genius behind MacHeist

MacHeist is something I’ve been a part of since the beginning and finally they are getting the big press they should have been receiving since the first MacHeist.

Dude, where’s my electric car?

As I’ve said earlier, I like gadgets, new technologies and all things related to those. I think one of the coolest gadgets lately have been electric and hybrid cars. Finally they are starting to come out looking less than a Tupperware box and more like a spaceship. Who doesn’t like spaceships? When Tesla came out [...]

We go back to the future!

Not only am I a lover of automobiles, I’m also a quite fanatic tech-lover. Technology and gadgets are something that make me itch with curiosity and I think it would be awesome to live to be 400 years old – just to see what new technologies will emerge. Although many people call me an Apple [...]

Happy-go-lucky-but-violent-porn

Following the strict orders of Benesek’s world-saving agenda, the UK government went ahead and banned “extreme and violent pornography”. I think this means that no more BDSM and probably all the other nasties will be outlawed as well. This is all nice and dandy, but since I was a little girl, I’ve thought that suppression [...]

A Trashed Rose

Mental imagery. While working in the advertisement and marketing industry, I’ve had the opportunity to see great ads and beautiful messages, strong messages – powerful messages. But still, there are a few things that are just so elemental and iconic. Think of a single rose in a trash can. Just a single rose. Why is [...]
