This week has been one dedicated to revamping the user interface of some of the most popular and prominent websites around. Of course, gaining the most buzz (pardon the pun) is Google+, Google’s answer to Facebook. With people clamoring to get in and actually purchasing invites that are supposed to be free, Google’s social network brings to it the simplicity and ease of use common to all Google products. Along with a brand new interface [...]

  What better way to revive Geekulous than with a review of a shiny new social networking site?  Ok, after lots of cyber stalking and obsessive email checking and page refreshing I’m finally a member of Google+.  I’m ready to pay forward all the generosity complete strangers bestowed on me.  I’m giving out invitations, all I ask is that you follow me on Twitter (@geekfab).  Let me know in the comments once you’ve finished that.

I know I’ve been posting some really cool conceptual items for the pieces of fabulous, but this week I’m going to come back down to earth and feature something that you can actually go out and buy right now.  This week’s piece of fabulous is – the iPhone 4 Bumper.  I was inspired to write about this wonderful overpriced piece of plastic when I dropped my iPhone 4 for the first time today.  Having heard about the reception issues [...]

This week’s featured app is brought to you by the developers at LightPillar.  The Touch LCD Designer Speaking Clock is by and large the best alarm clock app out there for both the iPhone and the iPad.  Recently I did some redecorating in my room, which allowed me to clear my laptop off of my nightstand.  With all that empty space I figured it would be the perfect spot for my shiny new iPad which wasn’t getting [...]

This week’s piece of fabulous is brought to you by Heininger Automotive.  The CommuteMate Instacloth is a small, pill sized (about the size of an Altoids mint) compact piece of cloth that, when wet, expands to a 9″ x 9″ cloth perfect for cleaning up minor spills.  These micro-cleaning devices are perfect for people on the go, throw them in your purse, your emergency kit or your car and you’ll be ready for any spill.  These are advertised [...]

Today’s piece of fabulous is…wait for it…the iPhone 4. I know I know, shocker, but really since I’ve gotten this sweet device in my hand I can’t really find anything more fabulous. So what makes it so fab? Well everything in my opinion but to be more specific there are a number of features that makes this phone the best, most fabulous phone I have ever had. iOS4 Well it goes without saying, iOS4 is [...]

Ok so this is a cool one, one piece of fabulous that I’m going to find very useful in my office.  The Flexible Speaker for the iPhone, designed by Chun-Chieh Yang with Yanko Design is, well, a flexible speaker for the iPhone.  This origami-like speaker plugs into your iPhone and lies flat on your desk or work surface.  Say goodbye to big bulky speakers, this little gem emits the same quality and volume while taking up much less space.  Leaving [...]
