Twitter: What are you doing?
13 people recommended this item
Description
I work freelance in a home office, and while I enjoy the quiet sometimes, I'd go nuts without Twitter. It keeps me in touch with my friends and compatriots without totally interrupting my workflow. It connects me and gives me a chance to feel like I'm not totally alone out here in the freelance world. I can't live without it!

Flip Video Camcorder: 60-Minutes (White)
8 people recommended this item
Description
I can't live without my Flip! It's just the right size to fit in my purse or pocket and lets me take video of the kids, of vacations - really, just about anything. The small size also helps set your video subject at ease; it's not as intimidating as a great big video camera. The flip-out usb connection means that you never need to hunt down a cable and that you can get your videos onto just about any computer and then quickly up onto the web.
This is such a handy, fun camera. Picture quality and sound is great, especially at the price. I totally recommend it!

Sidewinder for 3G iPod nano
First to recommend
Description
This is an awesome hard case for your iPod (mine is a Nano, but Marware makes these for other models, too). It keeps you iPod scratch-free but lets the color shine on through. But the best part is the flip-out cord minder. Two little hooks flip so that you can wrap your headphone cord around to keep it neat. They flip right back into the case when you're using it, so there's no added bulk.
I couldn't live without my Sidewinder!

JBL - Spot 2.1 Speaker System
2 people recommended this item
Description
I have these attached to my iMac, and man, do they sound great! The bass is wonderful, giving a really deep, solid thrum - and the fact that it's adjustable means I can tweak it for Beethoven AND The Beastie Boys. There are touch-pads right on the satellite tweeter to adjust volume and the color can be changed using 'skins.' Whatever you pick, they look and sound great.
Since music powers my days, I can't live without these terrific speakers!

Talisker, Scottish Malt Whisky
First to recommend
Description
There are many fine single malt scotches out there, but this one is my favorite. The flavor is sweet, tinged with salt and finishes with a smoky peat that doesn't overwhelm. It's like standing on the shore of Scotland itself, breathing in the fine sea air.
I would be hard-pressed to give up my wee drams of Talisker!

Rock Band
19 people recommended this item
Description
You may think Rock Band is only for geeky wanna-be rock stars, but I can tell you that it is one of the best family games ever. It gets all four of us - me, my husband and my two sons (11 & 13) - out of our chairs and playing together. We laugh and encourage and compete between ourselves and celebrate when we hit an achievement. And if you've ever tried to engage a newly-sullen pre-teen, you know what a miracle this is.
I never thought I'd say I can't live without a video game, but this one has provided such a great way for us to have fun together as a family - I'll be sad if the boys outgrow it!

Skooba Satchel 2.0
First to recommend
Description
I love my Skooba Satchel - it's just the right size and doesn't add a lot of weight. There is an awesome 'waffle' protective layer to cushion a laptop, as well as room for books, documents, cords and so on. The front pocket is divided up nicely with room for cellphone and cds and pens, plus a big zippered pocket for all your other little goodies.
This is one of the nicest laptop bags I've ever owned - I certainly couldn't live without it!

Converse All Star Slip (Black) - Chuck Taylor
First to recommend
Description
I like shoes. Ok, I really like shoes. But these shoes are my favorites - beating out the sexy red pumps, the comfy sandals, the gorgeous brown boots to win the best spot in my heart. They're comfy, they're down to earth and yet oh so hip, and ditching the laces for some hidden stretch in the upper makes them super easy to get in and out of. I wear them with jeans, I wear them with skirts - really, just about anywhere.
They are the best shoes ever and I simply couldn't live without them!

Nutella
37 people recommended this item
Description
When my first son was very little, he was such a fussy eater that I couldn't get him to eat anything. Enter Nutella. Now, 10 years later, it's still pretty much all he will eat.
And I can understand why, really. This stuff is addictively good. So sweet, so chocolaty, so nutty. It's great on toast, great on bananas, great on ice cream or strawberries - the possibilities are endless.
We keep a premanent supply in our cupboard - my son (ok, and me too) totally can't live without it.
