Procrastinate Fearlessly with the Stealth Switch!


Go ahead. Admit it. You’re screwing around on the Internet right now when you have work to do!
Hey? Hear that? It’s your boss coming up behind you. Quick, hide this page!
What? You weren’t quick enough and you got chewed out? Sucks, dewd. Sounds like what you really need is a Stealth Switch.
The Stealth Switch includes a foot pedal and a software package compatible with Win 98, 98SE, ME, 2000, XP Home/Pro that will hide windows based on the settings you put in. You can choose between hiding the current window, all windows or even all windows except for those you specify. This doesn’t just minimize them. It gets rid of them so that they don’t even show up at the bottom on the task bar.
Is sound a problem? The Stealth Switch can take care of that with ease, muting the sound. You can procrastinate in full confidence because it’s set so you can password protect the restore function. When the boss walks on by, you can go back to wasting company time safely.
Hey, it’s not just for procrastinators cyberloafing. What it was really designed for was to be able to protect sensitive information quickly and safely. Stop twitching!






People who play computer games often have one complaint: the keyboard. A computer keyboard is set up for typing, not for gaming, and it can be cumbersome when you're trying to get around an obstacle or switch weapons in your game.
If you've ever wished for a totally customizable keyboard just for gaming, today is your lucky day. The DX1 Input Systemfrom Think Geek lets you stick keys wherever you want them and assign whatever functions you need. The keyboard's background is also customizable, so you can stick in your favorite piece of fan-art from the game or make a map of which key controls which function.
There are two stationary buttons that can't be moved. They control the keyboard's menu and let you input the functions for the keys.
Best of all, you can input strings of commands for any key. That means that if there's a sequence in the game that you repeat constantly, you can execute the sequence with just one keystroke.
The DX1 works with any program at all, so it's perfect for that software you use often that is just too complicated to use with a regular keyboard.




Memories on Your Keychain



I love carrying pictures of my family around, but frankly, I’m not much for shuffling through my wallet to show of pictures of my beautiful, perfect angels. (I know, modest Mama, here). I’m also not much for a big purse or large wallet, so this keychain is wonderful to combine my love of the compact without warring with my desire to have pictures of my family with me.
What’s great about the MyLife Digital Photo Keychain is that you can carry about 64 photos of your family around with you, ready to show off at a moment’s notice. These are only compatible with the Windows OS up to Vista®, so if you’re a MAC user, you’re not going to want this specific item. But if you’re a PC user and use Windows, you’ll love it. The software that comes with the keychain is easy to use. You can upload the pics to the device through a simple USB port and even change them around if you get bored.
The software is plug-n-play, so you don’t have to edit or resize the photos when you load them into the keychain. Even with a small, 1.5 inch screen, you get great color and clarity on the pictures. The battery is also rechargeable, giving you about two hours of viewing per charge, so that’s lots of showing off pictures in line at the grocery store! (Doesn’t everyone haul out photos to brag on their kids and grandkids at the store? Well, I do, so there!) The side navigation buttons make it really easy to scroll through your pictures.
I constantly have people asking me where I can get these, actually, because they’re so cute and so easy to use. I think that little photo viewers are going to be the wave of the future for showing off pictures and I’m glad to have my own keychain be on the cutting edge!
