The Daily Artisan: "Conduit is an awesome syncing application for GNOME. It can help you synchronize your personal information like files, photos, notes, emails, contacts, calendar data among many other things. You can also use Conduit to synchronize that data with another computer, an online service, or even another electronic gadget."

Let’s say that you’ve run out of beer and for some awful reason you can’t go get more. What could possibly taunt you more than a beer filled USB drive? I swear it would not surprise me in the least to see a news bulletin somewhere, where a guy decided to try to suck the beer out of his USB drive. It’d likely start with one guy either daring or offering up some small fund ...

Mozilla sta per lanciare un nuovo progetto chiamato Geode: esso permetterà di migliorare l’esperienza di navigazione globale. Non ci sono molti dettagli su questo progetto, tanto che sulla pagina ufficiale dei Mozilla Labs ancora non è comparso nulla. Di Geode, però, si sa che si tratterà di un add-on per Firefox in grado di riconoscere le località: per esempio, un utente che è alla ricerca di ristoranti, o altri locali, potrà facilmente trovare informazioni e ...

Filed under: Peripherals The reams and reams of spam found with every check of our inboxes here at Engadget HQ have quashed the surge of emotions we used to experience when that new-mail notifier started blinking. So, we went looking for something to help get our e-mail groove back, and we've found it: the USB webmail notifier. It's a little box with the iconic envelope design on the front that lights up in green, blue, ...

Cost2Drive è un servizio che in pieno stile minimalista 2.0 ci indica i costi in carburante del viaggio che stiamo per intraprendere con la nostra auto, indicata con esattezza attraverso anno di produzione, marca e modello. Come potete vedere dalla foto però, pur accettando un viaggio da Firenze a Milano riconoscendo le due città l’applicazione non funziona correttamente, indicando la distanza (in miglia) e la quantità di benzina (in galloni) ma perdendosi nel calcolo del ...

Smush.it è un tool creato da un gruppo di sviluppatori del team di Yahoo Exceptional Performance. Permette di ridurre il peso di una immagine che può essere caricata dal proprio hard-disk oppure indicandone l’URL. Grazie ad una estensione per Firefox è anche possibile ottimizzare le immagini di una intera pagina web. E’ piuttosto veloce nell’applicare “i migliori algoritmi open source per ottenere la più piccola immagine senza ridurne la qualità”, stando a quanto dichiarato dagli ...

Filed under: Cellphones, Handhelds While it may not be Nokia's first touchscreen phone (anyone out there remember the 7710?), the 5800 XpressMusic is certainly the first to come out of Finland with a mainstream appeal. What we've alternately known as the "Tube" throughout much of its development cycle is the first production device to run S60 5th Edition -- the fourth major overhaul of Nokia's ubiquitous smartphone platform since 2002 and the first to support ...

Filed under: Cellphones, Misc. Gadgets We deeply apologize to all the vegetarians in the crowd, but this was just too grotesque to overlook. We're not exactly sure of the whos, whats, whys, and whens behind all this, but apparently some butcher-to-be found enough spare time (and enough fresh meat) to create a wallet, a set of keys, a 3G-capable cellphone and a 4TB flash drive from raw, tender meat. We don't know what's sadder -- ...

Takara Tomy's previously announced AeroSpider RC car, which mystically scales walls and cruises upside-down, is finally shipping this month in Japan. Cool though that may be, the real news here is the overgrown 4-year old used to show off just how amazing this minuscule vehicle truly is. Head on past the break to see what we mean -- trust us, ...

Most of us have luggage or suitcases that can roll for our convenience, but those little wheels can only go so far. Especially when it comes to gravel or worse, the dreaded stairway. I suppose it is only logical to create rolling luggage that can handle all terrains, and designer Roozbeh Mousavi of the Art Center College of Design has solved that problem by creating a rolling bag that is all wheel. This appropriately named ...

Apparently it doesn’t take much to get around those silly copyright laws, all you have to do is twist the name around a little and try to look innocent. Then surely no one will notice your Poufman seats look alarmingly like Pac-man. Even with having an eye where Pac-man’s eye would be, no one will ever notice the similarities between the two. Well if you would like a bit of gamer friendly seating this is ...

Per festeggiare i propri 10 anni di vita Google ha creato una pagina apposita con il motore di ricerca così com’era nell’ormai lontanissimo 2001, ai suoi albori quando permetteva di cercare tra ben 1.326.920.000 pagine. Particolarmente divertente risulta la prova effettuata dallo staff di Google Blogoscoped, che cercando la parola Gmail si è ritrovato come primo risultato un client di posta elettronica per sistemi Unix basati su Gnome che nulla ha a che vedere con ...

When turned on, you will find a stunning and classy luminous effect, although there would be certain quarters who will think that it looks tardy instead. Unfortunately for the working class populace who are struggling with ...
