May I interest you readers in purchasing a PS3 for a measly 500 Pesos?

Yes. You heard me right!

PS3 for cheap!

What a steal!

If you don't believe me, then look at the photo!

There is a "snoop" within all of us. From gossips, checking out other's belongings, to reading personal IMs and e-mails - knowing someone's DDS (deep, dark secrets) gives us a feeling that we have a certain "advantage" over others.

Of course, like any other spy (like the infamous Spy vs. Spy), we must first have the tools to fully satisfy our spying needs.

If you really want to know what's going on, then better get to the heart of one's tech lifestyle: the computer.

Ho~! I've never seen a computer as fast and as good as this!

If you want a laptop that can handle the latest games, make video editing as fast as it can get, store all your files conveniently, and connect to the internet lightning fast, then I suggest YOU DO NOT BUY THE COMPUTER THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT!

Don't you just hate it when you are looking for that "shortcut" but can't seem to find it? When I usually edit my photos using Photoshop, I always ask our resident art director what shorcut key is for xxxxxx function.

If you do not want to ask your friends, check out the help function of Windows, Word, or Excel, and just want to do it all by yourself, then this product from Elecom may just help you out...

There are times when I set two alarms just for me to wake up: my cellphone alarm and my normal alarm clock. But even if that's the case, I still can't seem to get up from my bed, take a bath, and get fixed. Someone at home really needs to wake me up and I really hate myself for that.

I am sure some of you readers have that problem too. And while there are a lot of solutions to this problem, why not buy an alarm clock that will scare the living daylights out of you once in a while? ;P

Just last week, my boss asked if he could borrow my iPod as he wanted to listen to his MP3s. Of course, I gladly obliged and handed it to him after loading his tunes, but there was a slight problem... The iPod needed to be docked to a speaker system here in our office.

While it was not really a problem to take off the silicon casing that I bought to protect my Pod, I was not really comfortable with that set-up. Why? Because one of my pet peeves is that I really get O.C. (obsessive compulsive) when my gadgets get scrached or dirty.

Of course, it got back to me without any scratches, but I felt that I needed a gadget that can dock my iPod without having to remove my silicon casing.

Well, it is good to hear that there is a company that directly solves that problem and provides O.C. people like me an easy solution...

I don't know if you guys know about this, but there is actually a way for you to have a portable HDD without the need for purchasing those branded ones in the market today.

It goes something like this:

1) Purchase a 2.5" or a 3.5" HDD

2) Buy an external enclosure for it (the 2.5" HDD only needs the USB for power, while the 3.5" HDD is more 'complex' and needs an external power supply)

3) Voila! Instant portable HDD for you.

This method is cheaper and can will save you a lot of money in the process. But of course, HDD enclosures in the market look dull and boring. So, why not give it a fancy look?

While this product may look like an ordinary HDD, the thing about it is that it is not. It is actually a 2.5" Hard Drive Disk Case for sale at geekstuff4u.

Here are the specs for it...

Uses 2.5" IDE HDD to USB2.0/1.1, is compatible with OS Windows98SE/Me/2000/XP and MacOS 9.2, it's dimensions are 84×134×12mm and weighs 68g.

Of course, the HDD is not included, but I guess purchasing a 120 GB 2.5" HDD won't be a problem right?

You can see more of this product at the geekstuff4u website and is sold for $24.68. Here's a link to make it easier for all of you readers.

I am sure a lot of you readers had (or still have if you bought a bootleg one) a Family Computer console at home. Those memories of Duck Hunt, Super Mario, Galaga, Legend of Kage, Adventure Island, Ninja Gaiden, and the 25 centavo trick for Goonies and Star Wars still warms me up whenever I remember it.

Ahhh. Those were the days...

Of course, it took me 12809371982734671351 hours to finish a single game. Not to mention the tons of lives I used for Contra and Mario... In fact, I never got the chance to memorize where the enemies came out.

And here comes a player that just left me speechless. A hardcore player that finished Super Mario with one life. And if that's not enough, he used his foot from start to finish.

Now that's just plain crazy, in a very good way though.

Here you go!

Call me a dork, but during my grade school days, I was part of the "Boy Scouts" club. Of course, I went to camping and the moderators taught us how to survive in the forest, do first aid, and knotting.

Of course, I still remember the square knot, but quite frankly, I don't remember how to do it. They told us that we might use the art of knotting in the future. Fast forward to 2007, and I still don't know when and where it will be useful.

Apparently, a person shows us just how useful knotting is for your PMP's headphones. While I don't knot my your earphones as this process may destroy it, this method MAY make things... Simpler?

Gah, just watch the video and tell us whether you'll be doing it to your precious earphones...

"Don't play video games because it will make you violent!"

"Playing video games is bad. Period."

Ever since the dawn of Duke Nukem/Doom/Wolfenstein/Quake/CS, a lot of people (including your parents) say that playing video games is bad for you. Not only that, people have been "connecting" the violent actions done by some teenagers to various video games like GTA. Of course, there will still be people who don't really care and still continue to play their favorite video games as a form of catharsis.

If you say that everything about video games is just wrong, think again.

Tired of those FM tuners for your iPod that give you static? Don't want your guests to find out that you are still using a cassette tape jack for your iPod? Want to just plug your precious iPod to your car's stereo and forget about it?

Fret not as a car enthusiast brings to you a product which I call "The iPod Cassette Deck!"

According to the enthusiast,

Ipod slides in like a cassette, ejects with the factory button, Custom made Apple button controls PAC SWIX to select source on Kenwood deck using Ipod interface. All fits in OEM cassette player case, mounts like factory, all backlighting retained. Used steel stock lined with suede to make a chassis, cassette mechanism gear assembly for motorization and many hand fabricated slides and levers. Works like a dream.

Yea. It really looks sweet to me. It's not only convenient, but it also ensures that your iPod will play without all those unnecessary static. This product is not for sale as of this moment. But hopefully, some companies will realize the fact that most iPod owners would love to have this on their cars.
