Magnetic and Flexible Tri-pod

It's the ultimate "why didn't I think of that?" concept, but kudos to Joby for doing more than just keeping a bar story to itself. Following in the footsteps of the magnified Gorillatorch, Joby decided to add a few magnets to the feet of its tried-and-true Gorillapod flexible tripod. The result? The Gorillapod Magnetic, of course! Reportedly, this little bugger supports digital cameras and camcorders weighing up to 11.5 ounces, and it should go on sale worldwide this April for an undisclosed amount. We know you've been dreaming of a way to snap group photos while inside those steel prison bars, and at long last, those dreams can be become reality. In related news, the company is also showing its professional side with the April-bound Ballhead X, which is described as a "portable yet sturdy" head that can pan, tilt, and rotate cameras up to 11.1 pounds, and while it's designed to play nice with the Gorillapod Focus, it should work fine with 3/8- and 1/4-inch threads on other tripods. Full release is after the break.

Perfect sa mga complex angles for digicam. Sana matindi yung magnetic capability para mas ok. Overall, my rate in the scale of 10... 7!

256GB Flash Drive

No matter how you slice it, having 256GB on your keychain is pretty rad. For those living in various regions of the world not named America, they've had access to the DataTraveler 300 for just under a year. Thankfully, the Kingston finally realized that Yanks love capaciousness as well, and the DataTraveler 310 is the solution that very sect has been longing for. Hailed as the first 256GB flash drive to ship in the States, the DT 310 is capable of holding up to 54 DVDs or 1,984 JPEGs of your undercover lover, and it'll function just fine with Windows, Linux and OS X-based systems. We're told that it'll sport data transfer rates of 25MB/sec (read) and 12MB/sec (write), but chances are you'll never get the opportunity to put those claims to the test. You know, given that astronomical $1,108 MSRP.

Wow mini-external drive, nice pero baka mas madaling ma-corrupt ang mga files at sirain kasi ang mga flash drive.

Samsung's transparent OLED laptop

So um, remember this crazy 14-inch transparent OLED display Samsung was showing off perched atop a laptop at CES? Yea, that might be in the shops within the next 12 months. If that doesn't get you tingling with excitement, we don't know what will. Samsung will start its big push toward translucency with the IceTouch PMP, which we found to have a gorgeous 2-inch display in our earlier hands-on, but it's already working away in the labs on turning the prototype above into a concrete retail product. The IceTouch is slated to make its US arrival early in the first half of this year, priced at around $332. European availability is as yet unconfirmed, but the Korean's company is being very ambitious about its technology, suggesting that windscreen-mounted SatNav units could be next on the agenda and ruling nothing out as it strives to bring its transparent AMOLED displays into the mainstream.

Help thru iTunes

In response to this week’s devastating earthquake in Haiti, Apple has begun accepting monetary donations for the American Red Cross directly through iTunes. According to the donation page, 100% of the donation will go to the Red Cross to support emergency relief efforts to help those affected by the earthquake. Due to iTunes not sharing user information with the organization, the Red Cross will be unable to further acknowledge any donations made, and an email receipt will serve as the only record of the donation. Donate buttons are available in denominations of $5, $10, $25, $50, $100, and $200; Apple has also posted a direct link to the iTunes donation page on its company homepage at apple.com.

7 Ways To Prevent Your Computer From Slowing Down

7 tips for preventing problems:


- Try to stick to mainstream websites and use your common sense. Going to the gambling website on the 40th page of Google because it says "Free $200 for the first 1000 users" is likely to end in $200 of computer repair fees for you.

- As Internet Explorer is still the most used browser in the world, it is the most targeted as well. Use a free alternative like Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome and Safari.

- Don't ever install anything on your computer, unless it is from a trusted source. When in question, Google it first, install later.

- Keep your OS up to date, which includes setting up auto updates from Windows.

- Get one of your techy friends to help you change your DNS server to use openDNS (www.opendns.com) instead of your ISPs own offering. OpenDNS actively fights drive by malware attacks and will show known malicias sites as simply not found.

- Have a firewall installed. Some good free ones are Outpost Firewall Free, Comodo Internet Security, or Online Armor Free.

- Have up to date anti-virus programs running. Some good free ones are Microsoft Security Essentials, Avira AntiVir Personal Edition, AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition.
