Psych
First to recommend
Description
While your favorite shows are on hiatus, you can always catch up on some little gems you may have missed. I'd recommend Pysch.
It's funny little show with a stupid sounding premise: A guy manages to convince a couple of skeptical detectives that he's truly psychic, mainly by solving their cases for them. Truth is, he's just very observant, and TV cops are never as good as the real ones.
Still, once you get past the first few episodes of the first season, the show is solid. The banter between Shawn and Gus alone (the guys on the cover) is worth the time - hilarious memories for anyone who grew up or lived in the 80's, as well as just plain fun. The chemistry between the two as well as all the other highly memorable characters is spot on. Not to mention, there's always a tangled little mystery that's fun to watch get put all tidy and right at the end.
My writing skills are sorely lacking, but watch some episodes from seasons 2 or 3 on hulu.com . That's when the writing really took off and made the show really great.

Waterbuoy - Miniature Flotation Device
First to recommend
Description
There are others, but this one's feature rich and well priced.
If you like to hang around water, or envision yourself in a tropical paradise someday doing said activity, there will come a time - mark my words - when you'll drop something in the brink.
And it won't float.
Secure against that possibility with the Waterbuoy. Here's what's cool about it:
-Lifts 2.2 pounds (1 kg) - so other than a sink, can pretty much secure anything
- Lights up a bright LED, so you can see it at night
-Activates quickly when submerged, but not splashed - you don't need an airbag in your face when you're on the raft.
-Cool balloon tech keeps your stuff floating for 24 hours - 'cause we all know that first rescue attempt usually fails.
Also only $10, which isn't bad for all this tech.
Here's what's not cool about it:
- You REALLY shouldn't attach this to your phone, or keys, or whatever, if you live landlocked and don't know what a surfboard looks like. It just looks bad.
But otherwise, go for it.

The Wand Universal Remote
3 people recommended this item
Description
You are reading Harry Potter (you decided to wait to see if it was worth the fuss). You want a wand. You also want to put down the book and do what Americans do - watch TV.
The Magic Wand is actually pretty cool! Twist it to raise or lower volume. A flick that way - poof (or not) - and the channel is changed! An elaborate little hand dance - and your on the DVD player's input thing!
Ok that last one wasn't so magical.
You have to admit the concept is unique. Pricey at around $89, but who can resist a wand that actually DOES something?

LaserShades

Description
Leave it to Thinkgeek.
See, lasers are a boatload of fun to play with, but you don't want to shine one on your retina.
Enter....LaserShades! (cue dramatic/informercial pop music here)
The LaserShades are made to filter out light of the 532 nanometer wavelength portion of the spectrum.
Or in English, Green. Green light.
The color super-powerful, pop a ballon, point-it-at-the-sky-and-get-arrested-by-the-FAA lasers of choice use.
Ridiculously pricey at $39.99. I'll let you decide if you need 'em.

Be.ez - LA Robe Allure Macbook Sleeve
First to recommend
Description
While I love Neoprene, the Be.ez 'LA Robe Allure' laptop sleeve won me over for its looks and durability. It's made out of 5mm's worth of Low Resilience Polyurethane, which is super cool, memory foam like material. Basically, upon impact, the stuff crushes in gently, instead of transmitting all the force directly to your precious macbook.
It's also just a heck of a lot of fun to squeeze.
Two color options avialble - Black and a dark brown Moka, both with a sleek, digital-style vertical line pattern. The company logo is subtly embossed on the front. Worth the $30.

SanDisk Ultra II SD Card - with USB connector!
First to recommend
Description
Another Nobel worthy gadget design. This smart SD memory card folds in half, revealing a slim but perfectly functional USB connector. Just plug it in to the nearest mac or pc and see, edit or play with your photos on a big screen. Sheer genius. The best part is, it's about the same price as a regular SD card- $30 for 4 gigabytes.
My only fear is folding it the wrong way and breaking it, but I seem to always realize that before I try to hard, and it looks pretty durable. A must buy for your next camera.
