Security Check – Just How Safe Is It To Use NFC?
While many of us believe that some high-tech type of magic casts a mysterious spell every time we use a tap-and-go service such as Amiibo, Google Wallet and Apple Pay, the functionality behind these services is actually much simpler. Put in layman’s terms without any confusing jargon, the process in ...

QR Codes vs. NFC: The Battle For Your Mobile Wallet [Infographic]
It's a little bizarre to think that in a decade from now (or probably before), the traditional wallet will be pretty much extinct. By then, most of us will use our smartphones as our wallets, just like we use our phones for everything else. The term 'mobile wallet' makes me think we'll still hold on ...
Waterproof Pocket Shorts Keep Your Geeky Gadgets Safe At The Beach
You can always tell who the geeks are at the beach. They are the people who are so attached to their gadgets that they can't even leave them behind for a day in the sun. The only problem is that the beach and the pool aren't very gadget friendly. I once had an iPhone take on a life of its own and ju ...
ChargeCard: Smartphone USB Cable That Slips In Your Wallet Like A Card
When you think back to your first cell phone, do you remember how you didn't have to charge it much? My first cell phone was a bag phone that I kept in my car "for emergencies." I hardly ever had to charge it. These days, that is obviously very different. Most of us charge our smartphones at least o ...
The Smart Wallet Keeps Track Of Your Phone & Your Wallet
It seems the most common reason why people either lose their smartphones or their wallets is because they forget to take them with them when they leave a public area. When they go back to look for it, it is usually gone. It's not a very pleasant feeling. There have been countless apps that try to se ...
Behold The Scarf With Incorporated Wallet & iPhone Pockets
People are starting to talk about smartphones carrying all kinds of data in order to make our lives more mobile. Well, actually we just seem to want to get rid of all the excess stuff that we carry around which we could incorporate into our cell phones instead. Maybe that is a better way to put it. ...

For those people out there who know they have to pay to play, there's a new credit card in town that will blow all the other ones away and let everyone know you are the king (or queen) of the world. Recently the first credit card made entirely from gold, diamonds and pearls was announced. There is a ...
Keeper iPhone 5 Case Will Eliminate Your Ordinary Wallet
It seems there's something about wallets that just doesn't fit our needs anymore. With our heavily equipped mobile devices, the wallet has become a secondhand accessory that we just don't want to deal with anymore. There has been a lot of innovation in the last few months that could possibly render ...
Reinventing The Wallet With The Innovative TGT Wallet
I know from personal experience that an ordinary wallet can get pretty bulky really quickly. You put your money, credit cards, photos and receipts right in there, and pack it tightly to make it fit in your pocket. Anyone who has a wallet knows exactly what I am talking about, and it can get out of h ...
World’s Most Expensive Business Cards ($1,500 Each!)
These business cards cost $1,500 each. You did the math in your head I'm sure. Yup, ten of these suckers cost $15,000. I know what you're thinking, and no, I'm not effing kidding you. It's things like this that remind me that there is a whole other world out there that I know nothing about. Who the ...
The Wallet That Reminds You To Stick To Your Budget!
Money and how we use it has certainly changed a lot in recent years. Although I'm still a big fan of carrying cash, most people I know use debit cards (and sometimes credit cards) for their purchases. When we use cash, it's easy to know if we are staying within our budget. After all, when all our ...
Tie Case: Recycle Your Old Ties Into Wallets And Cases
Being a kind of laid back person, I don't have the payload of ties to brag about. Sure, I do have my mandatory set of ten ties (trying to expand my collection), but working in front of a computer all day doesn't exactly set me up in a forum where I need a tie to represent myself. In the summers, i ...
The Mighty Wallet: A Strong, Earth Friendly Way To Carry Cash
We all carry money differently. Some of us carry big wallets, some carry leather pouches, and others just use a coin purse. Some friends of mine have designer wallets, others just use plain ones. They joke that as long as it's a lucky wallet, it doesn't have to be branded.
I once had a wallet ...
The Cassette Tape Wallet: Retro With A Twist
What is it with our cassette tape fascination? We've written so many articles about cassette tape inspired products, and it seems more and more are being created each day. Is it just because we love everything retro, or is there more to it than that?
I think these colorful, squishy, rubber, wat ...
