Hand grenade is yearning to be your special mouse

I have never been able to explain myself the fascination I’ve always had for the two World Wars the humanity faced back in the twentieth century. I am so eager to find out what happened to everything people were supposed to believe in precisely because I just can’t understand the concept of war. It’s beyond my comprehension, that’s for sure.

Therefore, I couldn’t be very enthusiastic about the Hand Grenade Mouse. A cold shiver goes down my back when thinking about having such a device to click all day long to my favorite Web sites. There’s no sense in getting accustomed to something that started its life as a device designed to blow off limbs. So how could I put my hand on this mouse and feel comfortable?

On the other hand, it’s not like my computer setup should be intimidating and it sure doesn’t need a hand grenade to make it more intense. Probably for all the online gamers outside, the device is the perfect solution in order to feel like being in the middle of the action and to amplify the sensation of power.

The mouse is actually made out of an old grenade casing, so it gives a slightly more authentic feel. As far as ergonomics are concerned, the guys who designed the mouse didn’t take into consideration that the mouse might actually kill something: your wrist. But it looks cool and that’s enough, right? In addition, the modders didn’t finish their job before going through the trouble of wiring up the trigger to function as the left mouse button.

As I said before, the hand grenade mouse doesn’t look ergonomically friendly, but the last thing you should expect from a hand grenade is to provide comfort and peace, don’t you think?

Crazy contact lenses

“A contact lens (also known as a contact) is a corrective, cosmetic or therapeutic lens usually placed on the cornea of the eye. Modern soft contact lenses were invented by the Czech chemists Otto Wichterle and Drahoslav Lim, who also invented the first gel used for their production”
Usually, people use contact lenses because they are trying to correct all sorts of deficiencies, which means they have the same purpose as conventional glasses, but they have the advantage of being lightweight and invisible. Nevertheless, there are many contact lenses that are colored by the manufacturer, aimed at those who want to change their eye color.

There’s no doubt about the fact that contact lenses were a fashionable accessory a couple of years ago, when I first had the chance to see such weird inventions of the human mind. And I have always wanted to have my own pair of black contact lenses, but it seems that my dream wasn’t meant to come true, due to all sorts of problems.


Still, I can’t say that the lenses designed by Eun-Gyeong Gwon and Eun-Jae Lee are to my liking. First of all, I must take a deep breath and consider the continuous evolution of the world that makes possible the craziest ideas that could ever cross someone’s mind. The I Contact is something like a mouse stuffed deep inside your eyes. I know it sounds like a bad joke, but that’s the way it is.
When it comes to the insertion of the lens, there’s no difference between the I Contact and other that are available on the market, but what makes it distinguish itself is the fact that the I Contact is equipped with sensors that allow tracking the eye movement. This way, the position is transmitted to a receiver that is connected to your PC. You know what this means, right? That you have full control over a mouse cursor.

When first created, the I Contact was aimed at all of those people who have disabilities that impede them to physically use a mouse. But guess what? This might be a great solution for those who are too lazy to use their hands in order to handle the mouse. So pray for these crazy contact lenses to see the light of the day!

Cheap flash drive to put on your wrist

People manifest their pretensions concerning right about everything they need, without discrimination. They’re entitled to, if you think about it, as we’re talking about things they are going to use on a regular basis. But sometimes they tend to exaggerate, becoming more inspirational then they should when it comes to devices that, by their nature, should be simple and practical. Still, it seems that pragmatism isn’t the keyword when it comes to people nowadays, as they would rather have sophisticated gadgets with less functionality instead of minimalist ones that help them do their work.



In the given context, the new Flash Drive Band isn’t aimed at people who want to be all the fashion, but to those who aren’t interested in the latest trends. So, if diamond-encrusted or Swarovski crystal-covered gadgets are not what you’re looking for, then this one might be for you. It’s a simple black Flash Drive Band that can be worn as a bracelet, suitable to both men and women. Its greatest advantage, if you ask me, is the fact that wearing your flash drive will keep you from ever losing it, no matter how hard you try. And if you’re the type of guy that tends to lose everything, then you will never lose your flash drive again!

A disadvantage, on the other hand, consists of the storage space, which is a little bit rudimentary and disappointing, of just 512 MB. So, if the only purpose for you to use such a device refers to your daily projects, that don’t require too much space, then this cheap flash drive is what you need. Yeah, ok, I agree, it’s nice to have the possibility to store all the files that you want and never thinking about their “dimension”, but that’s the way it is.

This soft band, made of black silicone, is very easy to put on, but it’s also very easy to take off. In addition, the flash drive is compatible with Windows 98 and Mac OS 9.0, or their newer versions.

Original PlayStation console for 2018

I am not what you can call a fan of video game consoles, even if I have had the chance to read lots of things in this area and I’m quite surrounded by people who show a real interest as far as this subject is concerned. I’ve heard about Sony PlayStations and about Wii, but I have never experienced the amusement of using anyone of them.

This is why I just cannot be very enthusiastic about this concept I’m about to present in the following sentences. Though, I wouldn’t dare to argue with the fact that the Playstation Enso, designed by Harold Smook, is an impressive gadget, with a very elegant and unique silhouette.


This original PlayStation console is based on elements borrowed from the Japanese and Buddhist Zen cultures and the major influence is a symbol called Enso, which means the glow of enlightenment. The only problem with it is that it comes with such advanced features that it won’t be possible for it to see the light of the day sometime soon. Anyway, according to the designer, this is how playstation consoles will look like in 2018, so we’ll have to be more than patient if we want to have the Enso in our hands.



As far as the features are concerned, we can put your hopes very up, because they include: 4 USB ports, a DVD drive with a capacity that is measured in terabytes and SD memory slot which is compatible with the terabyte capacity, compatibility with both DVD and CD data, wireless controls, wireless Internet connectivity, rechargeable batteries, a 3D projector that can be used for projecting 3D images, touch sensitive buttons for power and eject and blue lights that give you information with regard to the battery status. Didn’t I tell you this is one hell of a PlayStation?



Still, this isn’t all. In addition, it seems that the controllers will generate kinetic energy thanks to the movements of your hands, using it for several purposes, such as charging or capacity storage.

I’m not sure if this original PlayStation console will see the light of the day one day, but the way this devices will look like in the future it’s quite promising, don’t you think so?

Camera hidden in a belt buckle

When you are up to a secret video and audio recording, you have a full set of possibilities. Every modern cell phone has a voice recorder inside, many of them have cameras. However, it would be clearly obvious that you are recording if you are holding phone in your hands. There are some special gadgets that are carefully designed for making discreet recordings, so it would be smart to use one of them. Usually they look just like ordinary things - pens, pencils, watches… This one looks like a belt buckle, and it really is a buckle - however, not the simple one. Details follow.

This buckle has a secret hidden inside of it - tiny video and audio recorder. While looking like a usual accessory, it turns out to be an ultimate spy tool. Inside of this buckle rests a useful gadget that can record video and audio, and is beautifully camouflaged! Wireless cameras are a no-go in places where they can be detected by wireless camera detectors, so when you are forced to use another way of recording - put it on your belt and it will film everything you want, with practically no risk of getting caught. Miniature camera records video in 3GP video format (176x144, QCIF) with sound, which can be saved on the microSD card from 128 MB up to 2 GB. After that, recordings can be played on PC or on your mobile phone.

How to Make Big Money With AdSense Fast

The Google AdSense program is one of the most popular advertising programs on the internet. Each day more webmasters realize that they can increase their internet revenues by strategically implementing AdSense on their websites. Unfortunately most websites do not optimize their potential to make the most money with AdSense. The click through rates are so low that the income generated is almost negligible.
However this can be fixed very quickly by making a few simple changes. Here are a few AdSense optimization tips that can help to increase your overall earnings: Tip 1: Put Ads Above The Fold The section of your website that is seen when the site first loads without having to scroll down is consider 'above the fold'. This is an important part of your site since it gets plenty of attention. It is not necessary to flood this part with ads but rather you can subtly add a horizontal or vertical link unit mixed in with the rest of the content. Maintaining a good ad to content ratio is important so never flood a site with just ads. Tip 2: Use Well Recognized Link Colors Blue is the standard for links on the internet. Try to make your site navigation links blue in color so that your AdSense links can blend in with the rest of your site. Tip 3: Use the 336x280 Ad Unit This particular ad unit has a history of good performance as far as click through rates are concerned so use it whenever you can. Tip 4: Wrap Content Around Ad Units If you have a decent length article then consider using an html table and wrap the content around the ads. This should help to dramatically increase click through rates. Tip 5: Use The Maximum Allowable Ads The AdSense program permits 3 ad units and 2 link units. If a page has enough content then be sure to use the maximum number of ads as long as your page does not develop the flea market syndrome which occurs with too much advertising and too little content. If there is an article over 800 words in length then you should be easily able to integrate the maximum allowable ads without turning off your website visitors. Tip 6: Make The URL Color Black Or Grey It may be best to make the url at the bottom of each ad either black or grey. This is because you want visitors to notice the headline which is created by advertisers to draw clicks so doing this places more focus on the headline of the ad. Tip 7: Draw Relevant Ads It is important to use AdSense in niches that are advertiser heavy otherwise you will not get relevant ads. Also make sure each page is optimized properly with proper keyword meta tags, description meta tags and keyword rich title tags. Also make the url of the page keyword rich also to increase the chances of getting the most relevant ads. Use some of these AdSense tips to increase your internet revenues.
