My first shopping adventure for silicone wristbands was a humerous one. I was frantically clicking from one wristband shopping site to another, my mind in a fog with all the choices available. Patience is definitely not one of my virtues, and when I’m faced with too many choices, I have the tencency to abandon ship. [...]

It was a month after the first day I worked up the courage to ask out my girlfriend for the first time. Most people might not think that one month is much time when it comes to relationships, but I felt like I had known her forever. I wanted this anniversary to be special and [...]

When it comes to promoting your business, sometimes you need to think outside the box.

The latest to announce its demise is Google Powermeter. All the efforts to combine social networking with energy conservation seem to be pulling the plug.

This week, the lighting start-up company vu1 is beginning to ship a new type of lightbulb that could displace compact fluorescents and LED lamps as the energy-saving bulb of choice.

Last month, I wrote about the EcoDog home power monitoring system , which lets you see how much electricity your house is pulling, circuit by circuit. Apart from being fun for energy geeks like me who have an insatiable appetite for data, the device lets you discover patterns in your power consumption you might never [...]
