Imagine it's late, you're hungry and all you want is something sweet. Now imagine a fantasy world where you can drive to an ATM that dispenses delectable freshly-made Sprinkles cupcakes. Well hold onto your hats, people, because this fan…
Smart phones. Bracelets that track your heart rate and the number of steps you walk each day. A self-adjusting thermostat . Gadgets are getting scary smart, right? And we just found out about the smartest toothbrush in the world, powered…
As a casual photographer whose muses are three never-stop-moving children and one wiggly black lab, I am constantly frustrated by the shot that almost was. In the second or two that it takes my camera to focus on the image I want, it's g…
Given the amazing power of technology, it was only a matter of time before we'd be able to control our lights, our thermostat, even our garage door from smart gadgets. Well, thanks to Belkin, that time is right now. Or, very very soon. T…
After a tragic juice box diaper bag incident, my first iPhone was never the same. With my new phone, I do my best to keep it away from sippy cups, wet counters, and bathrooms, but that doesn't mean it's not at risk. So that's why when I …
As a runner and fitness buff, I'm a big fan of Nike+ gadgets. So you can bet my interest was piqued when I heard about their new FuelBand release that I'm dying to get my hands on already. The concept of the Nike+ FuelBand and iPhone app…
This year at the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show, it was no small task narrowing down more than 20,000 new products to just the stuff I think parents will love. (As in, not a pair of $2000 designer 3-D glasses). Here, five tech trends tha…
I do my best to turn off light switches and turn down our thermostat, especially on our other floors at night and when we're out of the house. But that's only when I remember. Which, as a busy mom, is not as often as it should be. That's…
Even though tablets and smartphones are my top choices for digital access on the go, I am still a fan of physical keyboards and the full functionality of laptops for getting real work done on the road. At CES this week, I saw a demo of a…
If you follow the tech industry, you've probably heard (and seen a gazillion tweets) about the Consumer Electronics Show which is going on right now in Vegas. It's the largest consumer electronics show in the world and has literally thou…
A future world I envision involves zipping around on hovercrafts, seeing holographic billboards and never having to carry a purse or wallet. (Fine, my futuristic images were greatly informed by Back to the Future ). We're probably not at…
I've been waiting to get my hands on both a NOOK Tablet and Kindle Fire since the news of their release hit the Internet. I'm definitely smitten with my first generation iPad, but the new tablets have been getting a lot of buzz--not just…
Last weekend, I co-hosted a fabulous party for the Atlanta Bloggy Boot Camp with our sponsor Best Buy , which was not just an excuse for me to pop on some super high heels and get a night out with some of my favorite bloggers. I also got…
With all the rumors about the big iPhone 5 release lately, I've been anxiously awaiting the news about when exactly I'll be able to get my hands on one. Well, it finally looks like we've got an actual date, so mark your calendars, Apple …
You keep hearing about the tablet wars heating up, but for a while, Apple's iPad seemed to be the only one that was on fire. I've had opportunities to test out Android tablets like the Blackberry Playbook, Motorola Xoom and Samsung Galax…
Every time I watch Sex and the City reruns (hold your judgments), I have to giggle at the gigantic cell phone Carrie pulls out of her bag. Technology has come so far since then, that I can only imagine how far it will go. And that's just…
There's really not much I miss about using a real camera since exclusively switching to my iPhone 4. Well, except that decisive click of the button that lets you know that you've got the shot. So wouldn't you know that someone has invent…
If you are a Nintendo Wii fan (and really, who isn't?) then yesterday's announcement from Nintendo is one you won't want to miss. The next generation Wii gaming system has been announced and it is called ( drumroll ) Wii U. Think everyth…
Every time I've tried to lose my postpartum baby weight (that's uh, four times for those of you keeping count) I find I have the most success when I keep a journal of what I'm eating and how I'm working out. So as I try to lose those las…
We here at Cool Mom Tech have always appreciated stylish tech. And designers have certainly been catching on, if you look back at the Juicy Couture USB bracelet we featured way back when, along with the ever-growing number of top designe…
With the trend of wearable tech becoming enormous this year, I've had my eye on all the new wearable tech gadgets that keep popping up. I mean, what self-respecting geek hasn't? But one thing missing has been Apple's contribution, which …
