TimeSnapper

Description
If you are stick to death of people asking you what it is you do all day, this nifty big of software might just be what you are looking for. TimeSnapper takes screenshots of your desktop every few seconds all week long. At the end of the week you can play it back like a mini-movie. My only worry is that corporate is going to make this mandatory.

The CaliBowl - Revolutionizing The Bowl and turning it into the ultimate eating apparatus.
First to recommend
Description
Who doesn't need bowls? I'm recommending these because I love what Thrillme said about them: "Pimp Your Bowl: CaliBowl. Get 25% off the "insane product that's revolutionizing the bowl" at Cali's e-store, peddling dip receptacles featuring a concave lip forcing food back onto your chip/spoon instead of spilling it over the side, because nobody likes a messy rim job." PLUS if you the code THRILLME you get 25% off your order!

Polaroid PoGo Instant Digital Camera
3 people recommended this item
Description
My Aunt, who has got to be hitting her mid-60s by now still uses a Polaroid instant camera she purchased what - 40 years ago? Finding it harder to find the film but she whips it out whenever a photo op presents itself. Well looks like Polaroid has finally entered the digital age with this camera. The cool factor alone is worth the price.

Casio's EX-FS10 and EX-FC100 Cameras
First to recommend
Description
There's little chance you have never seen those super slow motion movies of super high speed events such as the bullet blasting through the apple or the drop water exploding upward like some sort of liquid atomic bomb blast. These cameras allow you to shoot similar ultra-slow movies of fast events - up to 1,000 frames per second (movie film shoots at 24 frames per second). Lots of amazing features. And at a cost of $350, more than affordable.

INQ PHONE
First to recommend
Description
For fans of Facebook who have no interest in owning a smartphone this may just be the mobile unit for you. The operating system orbits around Facebook synchronization. Basically you take the phone online, pair it with your Facebook account, and all of your various Facebook applications become active on the mobile. Your Facebook address book syncs up with the phone's address book. Events from your Facebook calendar become part of the phone's calendar. Take a picture with the 3.2-megapixel camera, and you can automatically upload those shots to a Facebook album.

You know what I like about living today? We are living in the future! All the cool stuff that has been predicted for the last 50+ years is happening right now. Except for the flying cars and trips to the Moon for family vacations part.
