Posted by Bill Loguidice Editorial, Infographic No Comments

What follows are 16 facts about The Legend of Zelda series, then an infographic that illustrates them: Zelda and Mario (here) were developed at the same time, so the two borrowed some elements from each game. The fire bar from Zelda made its way to Mario and the piranha plant […]

Review: Tripmate Portable Router, NAS, and Power Bank

Posted by Bill Loguidice Review 1 Comment

When practical, combining certain portable products into one compact unit just makes sense. For instance, instead of carrying a separate portable battery and router, the HooToo TripMate Titan (HT-TM05) combines those functions into a single unit, while also functioning as a Network-attached storage (NAS) server. It’s really an impressive feature-set, […]

Infographic – Making Mario: The Creation and Evolution of Mario

Posted by Bill Loguidice Editorial, History, Infographic No Comments

What follows is a rather nice infographic for Nintendo’s iconic Mario, courtesy of HalloweenCostumes.com. Personally, I’ve always found classic pixel art far more beautiful than most rendered or polygonal images, and I think this particular infographic is a great illustration of that.

Review: DreamSpa AquaFan Rainfall LED/LCD Shower Head

Posted by Bill Loguidice Review No Comments

Your shower head is not necessarily the first item you’d think of for a high tech replacement. The DreamSpa AquaFan 12″ All-chrome Rainfall Shower Head with Color-Changing LED/LCD Temperature Display, however, may force you to reconsider. The AquaFan fits any standard shower arm, i.e., pretty much any shower arm without […]

Review: Gunilamp 9.5w Bluetooth LED Smart Light Bulb

Posted by Bill Loguidice Review No Comments

Just when many of us got through transitioning most, if not all, of our incandescent bulbs to far more efficient compact flourescent light (CFL) bulbs, along came practical light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs to put both to shame.

Review: Arespark Self Picture Monopod

Posted by Bill Loguidice Review 1 Comment

I admit it, I’ve had it with selfie stick reviews. I steadfastly refuse to review them unless they offer some type of differentiator from their Tribble-like brethren.
