Fold&Hold Bike is the best seat for your butt

Public transportation has only one drawback, it doesn’t guarantee an empty seat for you to sit on during the course of your transit. The Fold&Hold bike on the other hand ensures that you find a place to park your butt on a comfy base no matter how crowded the tube or the bus is. The uniquely fashioned handles make sure that bike is stationed in such a position that it fits neatly to the side of a railing while offering the seat as a perch. The coupling device with curved handle does the trick! Easy to fold up, comfy to ride, this bike is a cool rider, now only if people won’t keep latching on to railings for support! Continue reading…

4 Port USB Hub For Chocolate Lovers

Olympus got both the high end and low end markets covered, but what it doesn’t have covered is the midrange market where the likes of Nikon D90, Canon EOS 40D and even Canon EOS 50D rule.  To combat this, and to close the $900 spread between the Olympus E-520 and the E-3, Olympus brings you the E-30.  It is a 12.3-megapixel midrange dSLR that delivers Art Filters, a set of six effects–Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pale and Light, Grainy Film, Light Tone and Pin Hole–which are applicable during shooting.  Why these features you may ask?  Because that’s what midrange is all about, identity crisis.  Good job nonetheless, Olympus.  [Crave via The Digital Camera Blog]
