OhMiBod – The iPod Powered Vibrator
Rand called for it, Paul dreamed about it, Brandon can’t wait to use it. And now it’s here.
The “OhMiBod” (with the tagline, “Feel the Music”) is the first iPod powered Vibrator. And NO I will not do a product review on this one, but we’re open to hearing anyones um……experiences with the device.
It even comes with a lovely case!!!!!
Here’s what the website says:
OhMiBod is a sleek, sophisticated new generation of vibrator that
combines elegance of design with the excitement of your favorite music.
The audio enabled integrated microchip allows the OhMiBod to vibrate to
the beat and rhythm of your music while you listen. Measures 5 1/2″
long (insertable) and 1 1/8″ in diameter. OhMiBod comes with an
additional multi-speed endcap for use without an iPod or music
player.
It really is 2 products in one! Our motor provides strong yet quiet,
intense rhythmic vibrations. With polished chrome detail and pearl
white body this product is the ultimate iPod acsexsory!
Why is the music component so important? Listening to your favorite
sexy music and actually feeling the corresponding vibes quickly
transports you to a place where music, mind and body truly “come”
together. The range and intensity of the vibrations are endless,
creating a dynamically sensational experience never felt before!
Well hot damn!!!

Valleywag Vlog Hot voting.
The folks over at Valleywag have opened the polls for their Vlog Hot competition, a.k.a geek eye candy, for all to vote on.
I didn’t know about nominations otherwise I’m sure our very own Dr. Drew and The Very Reverend Sir Adam Plante would most certainly be on the list (modesty prevents me from suggesting that I would be on the list as well). However, the good news is that our very own Shauna made the list and she’s up against Congers (Amanda Congdon) who is without doubt, shamelessly voting for herself.
Head over and notch one up for the good guys (that’s Shauna, do I have to explain myself every time…oh it’s probably the accent).
…..flemo
UPDATE!!! OK, so I should’ve known the good Doc (Drew that is) got his mug up there in the voting circles. Not the most flattering photo but sure to appeal to the goth set. Is that permanent Drewby? Might as well notch one up for him as well.
Best Damn Tip: Use Speedtest.net to test your connection
The folks over at SpeedTest did some revamping and it’s hot. If you want to check your internet connection, head on over there and perform a test. It’ll suggest which server to test it off of, and then with a fun graphical interface, it’ll tell you how fast (or how slow) your connection is!

No Mo iPhone Biffo
Just when you thought the biff over the iPhone name was going to heat up, the bastards at Apple and Cisco have decided to play nice. Apparently they are now both able to use the iPhone name globally, in exchange for dropping all lawsuits. Aww ain’t that sweet. Even sweeter is the agreement that they would be exploring “opportunities for interoperability,” whatever that means…but could have interesting implications.
So now it’s on to the next big biff. I’m predicting fireworks at the next “D: All Things Digital” conference this year on May 30 between Jobsy and Gatesy as they will be sharing the stage to jointly discuss the history and future of the digital revolution in an unrehearsed, unscripted, onstage conversation. Check out AllThingsD.com and get ready for the biff…….Flemo

Check out Vox, It’ll knock off your….sox?
As I was surfing the net this week I came across Vox. I love community sites, so I thought I would check this one out a little deeper. TheHome page is quite eye catching and very straight forward. I decided to give it a go and see how it compared to other community site I have used (and I have used a lot!!!). The sign up process was pretty standard, it didn’t take long either which is good, because if you are like me, then there is nothing worse than a dragged out sign up process, which can almost put you off using the site in the first place. Keep it simple! Anyway, once I got past sign up, I decided to check out it’s features.
One of the big plus points to Vox is that it works with flickr, which is a great choice due to the number of people that use Flickr these days. It saved me an enormous amount of time uploading my pics again, I just browsed my flickr and sent then to my Vox account, easy! You can pretty much do anything to your blog, from choosing/making a funky design to Uploading Video. They also have the unusual features of being able to upload books and Collections (eg.travel boos etc and websites you have collected for a vacation). You can add people to your neighborhood (just like adding friends) and you can keep an eye on their new posts etc.
Overall, I think Vox is a great all round community, it will certainly meet most peoples needs and it’s growing pretty fast. Check it out… You might be surprised
