High Tech Rain Boots Take Dancing In The Rain To A Whole New Level
Have you ever been dancing in the rain? I mean r-e-a-l-l-y dancing in the rain? I haven't, but I would if I had these high tech rain boots.

Beer Glass Keeps People From Checking Smartphones When Socializing
When I'm at restaurants, I routinely look around to count all the people who are on their smartphones instead of engaging with the people who are sitting at the table.

3B Printing Project: 80,000 Bees Make Whiskey Bottle Out Of Honeycomb
The combination of nature and technology is interesting, yet sometimes bizarre.

Why iOS7 Is A Solid Update But Not An Evolutionary One
iOS7 was announced by Apple last week, and it proved to be divisive.

Perhaps the bi ...

The Guitar That Can Type An Email Makes Email Interesting Again
For me, checking and replying to emails is the most boring part of my workday. It's the only boring part actually.

Power Pocket: Jean Shorts Charge Your Smartphone With Body Heat
I remember this year at CES there was a thermoelectric wristwatch unveiled that could convert body heat into electricity.
