Burglars Caught on Camera by Owner 1700 Miles Away and Arrested!

Posted on July 5, 2010 by max

With advances in technology and cheaper home surveillance for consumers these days, burglars are having a lot more trouble keeping their jobs as this latest incident depicts the owner being 1700 miles away yet he managed to contact the local police department and send them the burglars’ screenshots.

Upon arriving to the home of the owner, the police were able to catch the burglars.

Yup, they were idiots.

Btw, you could probably setup a really cheap home surveillance with a cheap computer tucked away hooked up to Skype.

Posted on December 15, 2009 by max

According to NYTimes, companies are lowering prices even further just to survive.

It’s 2:28AM again and I am still blogging.  Yes, it’s a Saturday night and I am blogging!  (I know I am crazy about blogging but then, what else does a blogger do other than blog at 2:28AM on a Saturday?)

Anyways, I did a short video of how to build a brand that consumers will trust over at my .biz video.

The solution is pretty simple, that you use your common sense and “be honest”.

People like honest products, it’s as simple as that.  When customers trust your company, they will buy you

Hey, it’s Seth THE BLOGGER GUY – #AT&T #FAIL

Posted on September 5, 2009 by max

I have one thing to say about this video from AT&T, Seth Bloom is NOT a blogger, I don’t know him, I don’t know any blogger who know him.

The videos starts with, “Hey, it’s Seth THE BLOGGER GUY…”

I stopped watching because I am a REAL BLOGGER GUY and I am furiously mad because that’s NOT ME nor does that represent any “blogger guys” out there.

LIES, LIES, and more LIES.  Consumers

iCrack – iPhone’s will FAIL by crackin’ on you!

Posted on June 23, 2009 by max

In the last year or so, 20% of all damaged iPhones in the world have FAILED due to the cracking of its screens.  Even Nintendo has added a protective silicon cover for their Wiimotes since they have been crackin’ up HDTVs like it’s no big thang.  Well, Apple better do something and put some protective iPhone covers as default otherwise they may be cheating the consumers. (to buy new iPhones!)

Even my Blackberry has been dropped about 50 times in the last 2 years and no screen has broken.  Perhaps, iPhone design is great for touch but not so much for insurance against c

New Samsung HD Camcorder SMX-C14!

Posted on May 28, 2009 by max

Samsung releases their new HD camcorder SMX-C14 and SMX-C10, both HD camcorders come with 16GB of internal memory plus SD card slots for expansion.   I’ve seen a big array of great HD cameras lately, but I don’t think none of them are as great as far as price and function are concerned.  These HD cams are only available in South Korea right now, I might have to fly over there to pick one up next week.

The SMX-C14 and SMX-C10 also incorporate Samsung’s play-edit-sharing program called intelli studio. The built-in intelli-studio program allows consumers to connect

Dirt-Powered Soil Lamp!

Posted on March 17, 2009 by max

We’ve seen a slew of solar-powered lamps in the last couple years but this is the very first time “dirt”, (yes, the stuff that’s on your ground) has been used to power a lamp.  We wonder how long this will go, specifically when it will be available to the consumers.

The soil lamp uses the chemical reaction between copper, zinc, and slightly moistened mud to create enough electrical current to power an LED lamp. More cells can be used to create a brighter light
