The Mini Alarm Clock

By Abby McVay on Wednesday, Dec 19th 2007 No Comments

For those that travel quite often, those hotel alarm clocks don’t always seem trustworthy enough. Generally, if you actually attempt using the foreign alarm clock you spend the rest of the night sweating that maybe you set it wrong. This Mini Alarm Clock is portable enough to take with you wherever you go.

Sadly, this device seems about 10 years too late, since most of us just use our cellphone for an alarm when we’re away from home. However, it does also have a built in flashlight and sometimes those alarms in our phones malfunction a bit. That or you may not have an annoying enough ringtone to wake you up in the morning. So, if you need an alternative this little clock is just the thing.

It measures 1” x 3” x .75” therefore it would be great to just toss in your pocket or in an overnight bag. It also includes a calendar, stopwatch and timer. All together it costs $25.

The Tempo Time Tag

By Abby McVay on Tuesday, Dec 11th 2007 No Comments

I in the past few years have sworn off of watches, I basically came to the conclusion if I couldn’t find the perfect watch that I have designed in my head I will have no watch at all. That however, leaves me with my cell which only displays the time on the front for about ten seconds after you have closed it. For those that can’t constantly check their phone, this discreet little clock is a sneaky way to keep you on time.

Certain tricky places like to abandon having a clock displayed on the wall such as waiting rooms, board rooms and the occasional classroom. Two of the three tend to frown on you constantly glancing at your cellphone. This little clock just clips to your shirt, pocket or even your purse.

The clocks come in a set of two, which is convenient since I’m sure with them being so small they would be easy to lose. It is sold on Amazon for $17.95 and for once, batteries are included.

Rambus new Terabyte Bandwidth Initiative

By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Nov 28th 2007 1 Comment

Rambus, in case you didn’t know, are more or less the creators of all the major releases in PC memory (like “all your RAM are belong to BUS” style). They are working to up the number of bits passed per clock cycle to 32, which is up from the current 2 bits per clock cycle.

That alone would allow up to 16 gigabits per second to be transferred on a chip running at 500MHz, that’s around 16 times that of DDR2. now you throw a bunch of those chips together, up the clock speed to something more modern, and you are hitting that terabyte per second number they are aiming for.

OLED based watch looks amazing

By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Nov 21st 2007 No Comments

I don’t know what it is about the way OLEDs look, but I have always liked it, its kind of a retro look I guess, anyways, this watch works solely with and OLED display. When its not telling time, it displays a field of stars, a starry night sky if you will.

But if you shake it or tap it on the screen, it comes alive and shapes into a proper time discerning device. Its just an analog clock, it’d be cooler if it was digital, or if you had a choice, but its still a cool looking watch.

The Karlsson Spider Clock

By Abby McVay on Tuesday, Nov 6th 2007 No Comments

Although there have been several versions of this particular style of clock, this is by far the best one I’ve seen. Most try to mix white and silver, instead by using an all silver sheen which gives it a much more contemporary feel.

This Karlsson Spider Clock being sold at Contemporary Heaven is just the kind of clock you envision for that studio apartment with perfect white walls and furniture. Not to be confused with the white walls found in every apartment I’ve ever had. Don’t ask my why, but there is a difference.
