10 Christmas Gift Ideas For The Geeky Gal Posted: 28 Nov 2012 08:06 PM PST Earlier we had a post on 10 Christmas Gift Ideas for the Geeky Guy and since this is the age of tablets and smartphones, it’s no surprise that we also see many geeky gals out there. If you have a girlfriend, wife, best friend, mom or sister who is the ultimate geek (or even just a little bit geeky), we have some cool Christmas gift ideas to share with you. Check out the folowing 10 gift ideas that are set to help you show some love to the geeky girl (or woman) in your life. Full list after the jump! 8-Bit Flower BouquetLove a girl who loves 8-bit? Then, give her a unique 8-bit flower bouquet to brighten up her day. She can put it on her work desk or hang it up on her bedroom wall. The flowers (and the vase it comes in) is about 13 inches tall and is the perfect gift for someone who loves but can’t keep flowers alive long enough. But you love her all the same, don’t you? [$14.99] Polaroid Z2300Photographers can let down their hair with the Polaroid Z2300 which lets you take fun photos and print them in the form of photo stickers in less than a minute! Want color filters and borders? You got them. And this little baby can also record videos, and lets you crop photos before printing them.

[$160] Holga iPhone LensGot an iPhone and want to shoot Instagram-like photos? Here’s how you can view the world through a filter before you shoot the photos.

Just slip the case on and rotate the lenses over your phone’s camera lens while you snap away. The case is comfortably lightweight and the old rotary dial look is simply endearing. [$30] KarotzIt’s a robot. It’s a pet. It’s Karotz, your all-in-one (and incredibly cute) Wi-Fi enabled personal assistant. And your alarm clock, radio, home security system, voice recorder and more. Oh, so much more. You can program it to do more than a hundred things including (but not limited to) giving you personalized weather and traffic reports, be your eyes and ears at home (via live cam feed) when you are not around, send you an email photo of your child when he or she gets home before you do, or even read a storybook to your kids until they fall asleep. [$129.99] appSingIf you want to setup a party with karaoke and dancing, you will definitely love the AppSing.

[$63.63] BANDAI SmartpetYou want to get your niece or daughter a pet but you know that she doesn’t like picking up after them.

Share And View 200+ File Formats With Jumpshare Posted: 28 Nov 2012 07:49 PM PST There is a particular limitation to file-sharing tools and cloud storage services that is a setback – they do not support the viewing of different file types (formats) on their website. This is particularly a problem with files which require Adobe series, Microsoft Office or other applications to preview. Alternatively, you will have to download the file without a preview. With Jumpshare however, you can view over 200 files on an ordinary web browser. What’s cooler is that you can view all these files on the mobile browser, iOS and Android. At this moment, there are no user accounts available which means you do not have to register in order to use the Jumpshare service. Recommended Reading: 20 Ridiculously Simple File-Sharing Web Tools Start Using JumpshareIt is really simple to start, just head over to the Jumpshare website to start uploading your files. At the main page, you’ll be greeted with an uploading box where you can drag and drop more than 1 file. You’ll then be redirected to a unique link where you can see the files that you have uploaded then share this link by email, Facebook, Twitter or Google Plus. You can press the Upload button at the top to upload more files to this unique link. With that provided link, anyone with access to it can download, open and view the contents of the supported file type with a desktop or mobile web browser. View Multiple Files With A Web BrowserJumpshare supports browser-based previews for over 200 file formats including PSD (Photoshop Data File) files. You can also view presentation files like PPT, PPTX and other office documents. It also supports multiple Audio filetypes (MP3, MP2, WMA, WAV, AAC, FLAC), Video filetypes (MP4, MOV, AVI, WMV, MPEG) and tons of Image filetypes. Where It Falls ShortJumpshare is still in the Beta stages which is why you cannot create a user account to manage your uploaded files. Because files cannot be managed by a user account, anyone who has access to the unique link can download or view whatever important files you have uploaded onto Jumpshare. Uploaded files must be less than 100MB and will remain on the unique link only for 2 weeks from the day you uploaded it. During this time, there is no way to retrieve this unique link if you happen to misplace it but once the 2 weeks are over, your files will be deleted from the site. ConclusionJumpshare is a handy website for people who want to present a file through a web browser without having to install a specific program to view the file. However, be wary that whoever has access to this unique link can view and download the uploaded file. Other than that fact, the big number of files that Jumpshare supports makes it a unique file-sharing website. Related posts: |
