Okay I lied

So last time I said I'd talk about Google glass and the Facebook oculus here, but I LIED. Sorry guys, we're going to cover more useless awesome stuff that everyone should own if they have the money.
First I'm going to talk about a shirt that can never get wet or dirty. Let me present you the glorious shirt first before I start talking about it
I mean how cool is that already just by looking at it. The way it works is that it creates a microscopic layer of air between the liquid and the shirt using billions of silica particles.Well what sets this hydrophobic shirt asides from the rest is basically the quality. There is no cancerous materials or chemicals used like in some other hydrophobic clothing made in the past. Also this shirt can be washed up to 80 times and still retains its properties.

More cool stuff you probably didn't know existed.

Alright ladies and gentlemen I'm sure you are ready to see some more cool stuff that you can buy, or just admire if you'd like. I recently remembered how to use HTML again from the good old Myspace days so if you want to check out the stuff I'm showing, just click on the picture and you will be redirected to the site where it's availabe. Now that we've covered all the ugliness, lets get to the first cool product I want to talk about. So some of you may have seen my first post and been like "Who could possibly afford a real life Batman Tumbler for 1 million dollars?" WELL SIR, I have the next best thing. Well if you have and iPhone This is definitely one of the coolest iPhone cases I have ever seen. You have to order it from Japan but let me tell you, I almost want an iPhone just for this monsterous case. I cant deal with the tiny screens of the iPhone though.

Next, if you like space then you will probably want at least one of these. This is a cool little nightlight that lets you hold a galaxy in your hands! And it's only about 10 bucks.

So at this point I'm starting to realize that this blog has changed from my original idea of talking about and showing you technology of the future to showing you really cool stuff I think everyone should own. WE WILL GET BACK TO THE TALK OF THE FUTURE I SWEAR. My next post shall cover things like Google glass and maybe the Facebook oculus.

Covering different topics

I won't always be talking about technology and electronics that are upcoming and futuristic. Sometimes I'll just post about things I find cool and some things some people might find fun. For example, What if you could make your phone into a robot?! Not literally, its just a holder that is designed and shaped like a mech. This is kind of on the pricey side, being about 100 dollars, but it is really cool. Obviously this would be something you just have at home to make your room look cooler or to impress guests when they come over. Am I the only one that wanted to order like 12 of these and have a little mech army? Moving on from that lets talk about something more practical, like a way to listen to your music in any kind of watery conditions. By this I mean a waterproof bluetooth speaker. This cool little speaker can be used in the pool, because it floats, or in the shower. I personally have bluetooth radio in my car and let me tell you, it is awesome. The sound is so clean and it's so easy to deal with when everything connects wirelessly.

Procrastination at its finest

Well seeing as how I'm a guy who leaves everything until last second, I didn't even open the assignment until last night where I came to find out that I should have been posting every week. So I'll try to make it for it by making this post extra long and covering a couple different technologies that are cool and mostly available.
First I'd like to start off by talking about one of the coolest things I've seen in development at the moment. Wouldn't it be absolutely awesome to be able to breathe underwater? Well with a new oxygen respirator that is being developed right now you basically will be able to. It works along the concepts of how gills work with holes so small that it extracts the air molecules from the water. https://www.behance.net/gallery/TRTON/13434535  This Triton respirator would eliminate all the heavy and expensive diving gear that most divers require. I'd love to talk more about this but I don't want to get too stuck on one idea.
The second thing I'll be talking about has to do with Batman, because everyone knows Batman has the coolest technology. Although I won't be providing you a link to any of his equipment, I will be providing you a link to his car, the Tumbler. This car has now been made street legal for the low low price of one million dollars. I wouldn't consider this car and everyday type of drive, but it would definitely impress any of your friends. http://www.thisiswhyimbroke.com/street-legal-batman-tumbler  It also has a very powerful engine but don't expect it to compare to performance vehicles. The car has actually now been sold so I'm sorry guys if you had a million ready to spend.
The last thing I'll discuss here before this post becomes a cluttered mess is LASERS. We've all been at and event or in class when someone shines a red laser at the teacher or wall. It may be annoying but if you are the person doing the laser shining, it becomes instantly awesome. Well, since we're all adults here let's talk about strong lasers, not those ones you buy at the dollar store which a pen on the other side. I have stumbled onto some of the world's most powerful handheld lasers, and to make it even cooler, they have an attachment to make them look like a lightsaber! HOW COOL IS THAT?! Sorry, nerd moment. There is a variety of colors and power levels which you can find all at http://www.wickedlasers.com/arctic
I will be posting more cool stuff in the upcoming days, or hours, or something. Hope you guys like this blog.
