Speakers tend to be bulky, and even though they are portable, they do take up a fair amount of space. The Flexible Speaker for the iPhone idea takes a totally different role however, where it resembles more like a hanging charm over the iPhone thanks to the clever use of “Flat Flexible Laminated, (FFT) Loudspeaker technology”. Basically, FFT technology is paper-thin and foldable, where the latter aspect is absolutely vital to the cause since each unfold of the connecting speaker will enable the total volume level to increase – is that clever or what?

The vitality and utility of a network are affected significantly by the network management system (NMS) that is used to administer and monitor the network. However, models that can characterize the quality of a NMS are generally missing in the literature. In this paper, we introduce the concept of quality of monitoring (QoM), provide a mathematical formulation based on stochastic processes that can be used to model a network monitoring system and define QoM metrics based on this formulation

Boot and shoe dryers are definitely convenient, but they only work for your shoes.  It seems like a waste of money to spend your hard earned money on a gadget with only one function.  Instead you need something like this Universal Drying Apparatus.  Instead of just drying just your shoes it can handle other things like your clothing or even your umbrella.  It’s definitely a must have gadget for the rain filled season we’re about to begin. The device has adjustable arms that allow for it to work in more ways than one.  Adjust the arms and it holds your umbrella, move them around again and the dryer will hover over your shoes.  Not only does it dry off your clothing, umbrellas and accessories, but it also can dry out seeds and berries.  It’s definitely a more useful gadget to have around.  This design by Olga Kalugina is unfortunately still in the concept phase though.

Even if we never tested it, we’ve all thought about using the cup trick to communicate with a nearby friend when we were kids. To be able to secretly talk without your parent’s knowledge is every kids dream.  Well with technology as it is, it’s a touch easier for kids to do that.  If you’d still like to enjoy that same feeling you got as a kid when you used those cups, maybe you could give this cup trick a whirl in an updated way.
