Keeping cool all of the time during the summer is close to impossible.  There are just some places that aren’t as well air conditioned as others.  If you are particularly sweaty in those situations and want to try to stay cool, this little pocket fan should be of great use to you.  It could easily fit into your pocket and the blades tuck away nicely so that you won’t have to worry about them breaking off while you’re carrying it around.

Admittedly I greatly enjoy cooking and I’ve started to become a slight appliance addict.  One thing I’ve noticed is that most of them out there are practically the same.  This line from Bodium is a breath of fresh air in comparison to the rest.  It’s perfect for women that prefer tough looking kitchen appliances or for guys that want that power tool feel in the kitchen. The whole set of them is wrapped up tight in a nice coat of rubber and are decked out in little dots to make them easier to grip.  One thing that is bound to catch most people’s attention is the large selection of different colors.  Some companies are hopping on the color bandwagon, but they still seem to be in the minority.  The new line will include two different electric water kettles, a hand mixer, handheld blender, electric juicer, blade grinder and burr grinder.  You can expect to see these popping up as of this coming fall.

I’ve never really seen gas cans to be all that attractive, but this one manages to look somewhat stylish. You’ll get to wheel this through the airport feeling unique and suave, up to the point that the authorities have a chat with you due to looking slightly suspicious.  Then you’ll get the joy of feeling unique while you get a very thorough and intimate search. Having a GasCase like this, you’d almost feel the urge to fill it with something slightly more interesting than a set of overnight clothes.  These come in two different styles, the first is pretty normal, it just splits down the middle like your average suitcase.  Then there is the other one with a flip top that is better for larger documents that you really don’t want crushed.  These rolling suitcases come in 4 different colors green, yellow, blue and black.  You can purchase them for about $140 a piece.

Sometimes I wonder how people decide which gadgets to combine to create one big mega gadget.  Is it just a roll of the dice?  Do they actually think about it like we, the consumers, hope?  I’d like to say the second one, but sometimes I really do have my doubts.  One device that makes me wonder is this USB Portable Mediea Speaker with a built-in webcam.  I’m not saying having a webcam attached to your portable speakers couldn’t be useful on occasion.   Is it enough to justify the gadget though?

I’m not sure why, but just from glancing at the picture, I thought for sure this was a silly handmade job.  Instead though, this is a mass produced item that likely isn’t even remotely handmade.  This card reader will make sure that you’ll always have a portable method to pull things off of your memory card.  Plus, it is disguised as two keys.  Alright, so that part isn’t going to fool anyone, but it does give  a slightly more geeky design to a fairly normal gadget.

If you like to let your pet wander instead of keeping them tied down to a small area, you might still want to be able to keep track of them.  Otherwise they could wander too far and you’d never know if they’re somewhere hurt and unable to get back.  With this RoamEO Pup you’ll always know where your dog is at and won’t have to worry quite so much.  If you have two different dogs, you’ll still only need one receiver, which could save you money.

There are always plenty of gadgets out there that require a USB port to charge themselves up again.  The more gadgets like that, the more our USB ports stay full, which means we have to pay for an extra hub to make life a little easier.  Well when you’re traveling or just someplace without a computer, it causes a problem with charging your gadgets.  If you want to make sure that you’ll have an alternative method to charge your USB gadgets, this affordable adapter would be a big help. These adapters from iLuv come in two different forms, one is better suited for someone who isn’t that big into their gadgets, the other for more serious gadget lovers.  The first has only one USB port to plug into and the second has a total of three.  If nothing else, you could even use the adapter with 3 ports to free up room on your computer instead of purchasing yourself a hub.  These adapters are able to handle from 100 on up to 240V at 50 or 60Hz.  You can purchase the iLuv iAD116 and the iAD117 for $14.99 and $19.99.  I’m sure you can guess which price goes with which one.

It seems more and more devices are disguising themselves as other devices.  This at first glance appears to be a security camera, when in fact it’s a light.  It’d make for an interesting porch light and might make it less likely that someone will break in.  It might also make you feel important to have a security camera sitting firmly at your door.  It’d definitely make for a humorous light to sit at your desk. This Spoticam was created by the Antrepo Design Industry.  The lamp can either sit on a table or be mounted to a wall.  It comes in two different color choices, one is pure white and the other is raw aluminum.  Sadly, this odd lamp isn’t exactly for sale right now.  There’s no word on if it will be or how you can find one.  They do make a point to mention the two different color choices they come in, which means they might have the intention of selling these at some point.  Just keep an eye out on the product page if you’re interested in picking one up

Although this is probably one of the more odd sets of headphones out there, it’s always nice to see anything that changes things up.  Anymore, it’s almost difficult to find headphones that seem even remotely unique.  These are, if nothing else, are definitely unique.  They are also one of those things you’re either going to love them or hate them. They’re pretty basic as far as specs go, after all, they are just a set of headphones.  They do offer a lightweight design with an adjustable metal headband.  They also have ear cups that are nice and padded to keep them comfortable.  They come in two different colors, you can pick them up in either the bright yellow or what they call orange.  If it’s orange, it’s probably considered more of a burnt orange.  You can purchase the WeSC Pickups Headphones for $60 from Urban Outfitters .  Admittedly, that’s not exactly the best price out there, but if you want something a little different, it might be worth paying the extra cash.
