Being the Geek that I was, I remember the days when I would carry around a bag filled with the gadgets that I might need. Now, being the Geek-Dad I am, I carry around a bag filled with the things my kids do need – with little room left for my things.

Get A Car Charger… But Which One?
A friend asked me to help him choose which car adapters to purchase for his smartphone and tablet. We went through adapters specific to each device before I finally recommended The Incase Mini Car Charger (or chargers like it) because of these winning features…
Have you been looking for the right Car Mount for your iPhone or Android device? Then like me, you may have discovered the following:
