Victor Multi-Kill Electronic Mouse trap


Pet store mice can be a cute addition to the home. They can provide a child with responsibility and entertainment. Mice can also be bred to feed your pet snakes which could be considered gruesome to some but entertainment for others. These mice are clean and are bred in a controlled environmentBut what if you lie awake at night and hear scratching in your wall and awake to find bread crumbs lying on the floor and droppings lying about. This is a nuisance and most likely will cause anxiety and paranoia in your household. These are wild uncontrolled rodents that carry disease and germs which can be very harmful to your health and your family’s health.

SCiB Battery Technology


The current lack of support in the form of charging stations the poor performance in regards to range and recharge time is something that makes me wonder if the electric car is just a pipe dream in terms of usability. That is where Toshiba’s SCiB battery technology comes in to smash any predetermined doubts you had regarding the electric car being unfeasible as a means of transport. Traditionally, it took electric car batteries over thirty minutes to charge (give or take a few minutes).

latest smart phones


There are a wide variety of smart phones on the market. The Apple iPhone is up to its fourth incarnation and every mobile phone manufacturer has released at least one variant. The reason the innovation most impresses me is because of how useful they are. Many incorporate more features than a regular PDA and are essentially a hand held mobile computing device. Some of the features that are most impressive to me are things such as GPS navigation capabilities, 3D graphic acceleration, the capacity to read electronic books and on screen keyboards. All of these things coupled with 3G connectivity for mobile Internet browsing and operating systems that can run various other applications really make smart phone technology shine.

Solid State Storage devices



I dislike trusting my data with devices that utilize so many moving parts. They are easily damaged and have an extremely limited shelf life if used heavily. I notice that any mechanical hard drive I have does not last long and with the exception of the power supply it is normally the first thing to eventually die. Solid state storage is not exactly a new technological trend – however for the sake of the everyday consumer it is now accessible. Solid storage offers many advantages over traditional hard drive options such as speed and reliability. Because they are a solid device with a minimum of moving parts (most of the time none) they are less likely to suffer mechanical fault and are not reliant on the speed of the mechanical parts in order to transfer data.

Social Networking sites


You may have heard about Facebook, MySpace or Twitter on the television, internet or even from a friend; but what do these services have to offer that a conventional phone conversation cannot. Sometimes phone conversations can feel a bit awkward as if there is nothing to talk about. They may require you halting all further actions to concentrate on what is being said at that specific time. With a social networking site you are able to create topics and conversation pieces with just a few mouse clicks. You can add pictures and video to get your message across. You can talk about subjects beforehand with more time to think about what it is you are trying to convey. Plus there is a multiplayer gaming community that can be used to link one person to another.
With a social networking site such as Facebook you can post a visual image of a certain event in your life that basically describes itself. There is a chat option and a global messaging ability that allows your thoughts to be seen in all of your friends’ eyes. With a conventional phone call you can only leave what you are trying to communicate about to the listener’s imagination. With a social networking site you can show off your family’s barbecue night or child’s baseball game with one picture and not have to go on and on with description. Combined with a phone conversation a social networking site offers so much more to staying connected with friends and family. Keeping in touch with everyone you know has never been simpler than consolidating it all into one service that announces your thoughts and life events with ease.

Sure, nothing beats person to person communication – but why not have a simpler way to keep in touch with friends? While the technology may not be new, it offers constant innovation in the way it allows people to keep in touch.

Japan shoots Marvel Heroes with anime-cute ray gun: Iron-Chan

We all know that Iron Man is the epitome of all hyper-masculine geek fantasies, but what if the character was given the cutesy, sometimes effete treatment tacked on to most Japanese anime characters? The result of such a alternate universe Iron Man actually exists courtesy of the folks at Asunarosya (see above photo). We're surprised they didn't dub this guy Iron-Chan ("chan" is usually attached to people or characters to make them seem cuter). In fact, Marvel also allowed the company to give Wolverine, Spiderman, The Thing and The Hulk the "cute Japan" treatment with surprisingly adorable results. You can pick up your own cuddly version of Iron Man for just 3,990 yen ($40).

Solar Insect Zappers


There is nothing quite like the satisfying sound of listening to insects being zapped to oblivion during the night by an electric-powered Insect Zapper. Unfortunately, that takes up juice which would not go down well with people who want to keep their power bill down, especially in these times of economic hardship. Enter the Solar Insect Zapper which does the nasty job without sipping a single watt of power from the grid.

Electric Shocking Mouse




If you don’t like the people you work with, it may be time for some revenge. Start shocking them. The product never actually says how much of a jolt this will deliver, but they say that it’s “Without harm and hurt, just a surprise”. Then in the next line they say “Just press the key as the usual computer, they will jump and cry!” . So this gadget will make them jump AND cry for only $5.99. Can’t ask for much more then that. The company also warns that it’s “Not recommended for children under 14 years old, adults over 50 years old, or persons with any medical conditions.
