Did you ever get into Second Life? Basically, you could consider it a game, but for a lot of people, it’s more than just that. As an example, it’s enough to say that, a few months ago, I read an article about a real world company involved in the real estate business… in Second Life! So, we have real estate brokers arriving at the office, starting the computer, getting into Second Life, and then doing what one real estate broker usually does - selling properties, virtual ones, to be more precise, and earning money, but real money, this time. Now, you are probably wondering what’s the link between all this and Hitsgarden, aren’t you? I’ll get to it right away…

New Eee PC from May

Eee PCAs you may know I’m a huge fan of the tiny Linux-based Asus Eee PC and went out and bought one with my own money I hasten to add the minute they were available, last year.

The Wi-Fi always latches on first time, it has all of the applications I need, 3 USB ports, an SD card slot and an MS compatible office suite. A few tweaks here and there, install the KDE desktop and you have a near perfect travelling companion. But now the Eee 900 hoves into view. Read More »

Spy Pen Detects Wireless and RF Signals

rf-detector-penThe Auto Detective pen detects wireless and RF signals. The light starts blinking when it detects “signals within the ranges of 900/1200/1300 and 2400/2600/3000MHz”. The faster the blinking the closer you are to the spy device you’re detecting. As an added bonus it’s supposed to have some feature that helps detect counterfeit bills. The unit runs $16 and is made in China. I’ve already placed my order. I have reason to believe my girlfriend bugged the house because she suspects I’m cheating. Which I am, but she’ll never catch me. The bag-lady and I only make out at the bus-stop. I don’t invite her over because she smells like urine.
