A Vision of Students Today

I was just introduced to this video through one of my classes at WVU and I thought it was brilliant. So much in fact that I just had to share it. I know many of you are either past, present or future college students and will certainly identify with the message in this video. As I'm wrapping up my undergrad degree this summer, and entering Grad school in the fall, I can relate in a big way.

"A short video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today - how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime. Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University."

So what do you think? Do you agree with the message here?

Marware EcoVue iPad 2 Case Review

Marware EcoVue for iPad 2

   You guys may remember my review of the Marware EcoVue case for the original iPad and I loved it so much I awarded it an Editors Choice. Honestly, I've used that case for over a year and it held up admirably to plenty of abuse. The one drawback that reared its head after awhile was that the iPad could've slipped out the top of the case if just the right circumstances came together. Now the EcoVue case is available for the newest (and slimmer) iPad 2 so a new design was needed. Did Marware hit another home run and more importantly, did they resolve that issue? Read on to find out!

    Mobile phones and other gadgets have become so much a part of our daily lives that sometimes you just need to stop and organize your life.

We've all seen the guy in the next car over fumbling with his iPhone while trying to drive. It's not just annoying, it's a massive safety issue to everyone else on the (sidewalk) roads.

iCarpus Mobile Phone and Gadget Stand Review

iCarpus Mobile Phone and Gadget Holder

Introduction:

     I was recently on the hunt for some type of stand or holder for my iPhone 3GS, not really for necessity, but more for an accessory for convenience. I mean, how many times have you wanted to prop up your iPhone, iPod or just about any other mobile phone or gadget. I was looking for something inexpensive, practical and easy to use and transport. I knew I didn't want to have to plug it in, add batteries or need to feed it regularly, so this narrowed down my options.

After much deliberation and research, I finally decided to give the iCarpus Mobile Phone and Gadget Holder a try. The reviews on amazon.com were excellent and it just looked too simple to screw up. I'm glad I did. It fit the bill perfectly.
