Did you know that “talking postcards” were once a thing? Back in the 1940s and 50s, tourists in the U.S. might pop into a coin-operated Voice-O-Graph booth to record themselves speaking about their trip, with their tales ending up on a lacquer-coated record that they could then mail to friends or relatives.  A BBC report this week revealed how one such Voice-O-Graph was recently reunited with its creator 70 years after she sent it. British-born Valerie Stannard recorded the talking postcard in a Voice-O-Graph booth on the 90th floor of the Empire State Building in 1955. She sent the six-inch…

Right now there are a few deals going on around the Garmin Fenix 7 line, but we’ve found one that’s the best to buy today, combining a good price with great features. And that’s on the 47mm Garmin Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar. It has the most features and a price worth looking at twice after the discounts are applied (it’s just $650 from $900 after the $250 discount). However, we fear there may be some confusion over the word “Sapphire” in the watch’s name — that’s an indicator of a feature and not a color! You’re totally forgiven if you…

In an iconic scene from the 2002 sci-fi film Minority Report, on-the-run Agent John Anderton, played by Tom Cruise, struggles to walk through a mall as he’s targeted by a multitude of personalized ads from the likes of Lexus, Guinness and American Express, everytime hidden detectors identify his eyes. It was clearly meant as a warning about a not-so-desirable dystopian future. Yet, 23 years later that future is at least partlially here in the online world and threatens to spread to other areas of daily life which are increasingly ‘connected’, such as the inside of cars. And the new testing…

Recently, we put out our Withings ScanWatch Nova Brilliant review and got a chance to look at a hybrid smartwatch that brings the brilliance, elegance, and style of a classic watch but also has a digital window. You can think of it like a standard watch that has a digital “complication” (for watchheads, a complication is a part of the watch that does something other than tell time) — like a G-Shock 2100 series, but “smart.” It’s really cool, great looking, and certainly a review worth taking a look at. Unfortunately, the ScanWatch Nova Brilliant retails for $600. So we…
