Piece of Fabulous Friday – Flexible Speaker for iPhone

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 all that extra space on your desk for your growing collection of Apple products (iPad...

Why I love the iPad

Why I love the iPad

Well Mondays are usually dedicated to my iPhone App of the Week articles but I had to share the good news.  I finally bought an iPad!  It’s funny, I had been waiting years for the iPad to be released, I knew it would be the perfect device for me as soon as I started using my iPhone.  Then, after waiting for what seemed like eons, Steve Jobs finally gave us a look at the invention we’d all been waiting for.  My initial reaction disappointment, where was the front facing camera (or any camera for that matter)?  What about multi-tasking? ...

Piece of Fabulous Friday-HydraDuo Water Bottle

Well summer has officially started, the weather is getting warmer, clothing is becoming more scant and, at least here in California, water bottles are in everyone’s hands.  As the weather warms up, I find myself carrying more water bottles with me.  I, like most, only drink filtered or bottled water however I know how horrible plastic bottles are for the environment.  Therefore, I find myself bringing reusable (usually Nalgene) bottles with me where ever I go.  Problem is, I’m not always a fan of drinking plain water, in fact,...

How Google Works: Explaining a Search Engine to a Baby Boomer

How Google Works: Explaining a Search Engine to a Baby Boomer

Yesterday I was talking to my dad on the phone, trying to help him with a computer problem he was having.  Let me tell you, getting someone to explain to you, over the phone, what they’re seeing on their computer is a feat .  Trying to translate what they’re saying into language that makes sense is a whole other can of worms (Dad: ” I double click on the ‘W’, the arrow goes away for a minute but the background turns white and the document window comes up, I put a slash in and everything goes away“), but ...

What’s so cool about iPhone 4?

What’s so cool about iPhone 4?

As an Apple fangirl I feel obligated (not that it’s a chore in any sense of the word) to express my opinion on the new iPhone.  Ahem, I LOVE IT.  I have to admit, when the world was first introduced to the phone via Jason Chen of Gizmodo, my reaction to the aesthetics of the device was, in a word, disappointed.  I’m a big fan of smooth lines and curved edges  the metal casing around the phone made me not so hot for it.  However, I, like many others figured there had to be a reason for such a specific design.  Mr. Jobs let...

Top 6 Built In Mac Features to Increase Productivity

In my years as a Mac user I have found some of the simplest built in features to be the most used on my machine.  The following are my top fave Mac features for increasing productivity. 1.  Expose: Expose is not a new feature but it is definitely a very useful feature.  How many times have you found yourself with a bunch of windows open on your desktop and looking for one specific window?  Well, for me, that happens a lot, enter Expose.  This nifty little feature allows you to quickly view all of your open windows on your desktop at the sa...

"Initial" Post

"Initial" Post

This is the Geekulous “initial” post, I use quotes because I haven’t posted in almost a year. Be it the warm summer weather, the completion of my Masters or just plain boredom. I’m again reviving Geekulous. Blogging has always had a special place in my heart however it seems like every time I try to breath new life into a blog I get side tracked by the rest of life. Last year when I launched Geekulous it gained popularity quickly. So hopefully the revival of Geekulous will see the same success. I’m bringing back so...
