BzzAgent SodaStream Campaign

2011-09-30T12:56:00.003-04:00

I have been a BzzAgent for a few years now and have had the opportunity to try out some very nice products. This has to be the coolest one to date and I hope to be able to try it.

SodaStream allows you to prepare great-tasting, fresh, fizzy beverages precisely to your taste - with no bottles, cans, or electricity! With the SodaStream Jet Starter Kit, you've got everything you need to turn tap water into sparkling water in 30 seconds--saving you money while also helping you stay environmentally friendly. The starter kit includes SodaStream Jet soda maker in black/silver, one carbonator (good for making up to 60L of soda), and one BPA-free plastic bottle.

How cool would it be to be able to make your own soda pop. I hope I am accepted into this campaign so I can try it myself. Wish me luck.

Thecus® Unveils the N0204 miniNAS Device

2009-05-19T13:35:00.000-04:00

Thecus® Unveils the N0204 miniNAS Device

"The tiny RAID-enabled portable network storage device with big ideas"

03/30/2009 – Big things are happening in the world of NAS devices. Today, Thecus® is proud to introduce the N0204 miniNAS device – the world’s smallest fully-featured NAS device.

Measuring a tiny 132 x 88 x 63 mm exterior, one could easily mistake the N0204 as a regular external hard drive. But look closer and you will see a very capable two-bay NAS device that fits right in the palm of your hand. The N0204 houses two 2.5” SATA hard disks, providing up to 1TB of storage. You can manage this storage with your choice of RAID 0, 1, and JBOD, making the N0204 the most robust pocketable storage device in existence. And because its drive bays are hot-swappable and feature auto-rebuild, you can change a hard disk without powering down the unit. The N0204 even comes with Thecus®’ Nsync for remote replication as well as the Thecus® Backup Utility for total data security. With huge storage, RAID functionality, and advanced data safeguards packed into a tiny device, the N0204 miniNAS is in a class all its own.

Tiny but mighty, the N0204 comes with many of the features and functionality possessed by its much larger cousins. For starters, the N0204 can function as a complete media hub with its built-in iTunes server, photo web server, and media server. With the built-in media server, you can enjoy your videos, pictures, and music with the N0204 by using any DLNA compliant media players. Plug in a USB web cam, and the N0204 turns into the world’s tiniest home surveillance server, allowing you to preview, capture and schedule image snapshots up to 640 x 480. Add to that support for both Windows and MAC OS operating systems and a whole new user friendly Windows Utility to easily set up and link the N0204 with your PC, and you’ve got some serious storage that you can whip out of your pocket and plug into virtually any network.

The N0204 miniNAS is a marvel of engineering. With advanced energy-saving capabilities, the N0204 only uses between 25~30% of the power compared to traditional two-bay NAS devices. You can even schedule power on/off for better power management. The N0204 also features whisper-quiet cooling, which means low temperatures and even lower noise during daily operation. A convenient USB 2.0 port in the front and the one-touch copy allow you to copy the contents of a USB storage device to the N0204 with a single button press. You can also copy data from the N0204 to any USB disk for data exchange. The N0204 supports USB printers, external hard disks, USB web cam, and even works with USB WLAN adaptors, allowing you to give this tiny NAS device wireless capability.

A complete NAS device in a form factor smaller than a paperback book, the N0204 miniNAS proves that great things do indeed come in tiny packages.

"When we tell people what the N0204 miniNAS can do, the most common reaction is disbelief followed by awe,” notes Thecus General Manager Florence Shih. "We've essentially created a fully-functional NAS device in a package that you can take anywhere. With the N0204, you can enjoy the power and convenience of NAS storage anywhere life takes you."

Living In Theory's HP Magic Giveaway: My Entry

2008-12-14T13:46:00.002-05:00

Fifty different Blogs have been chosen to participate in the HP Magic Giveaway. On of those is Living In Theory. Here is my entry into this particular contest:

My sister and her husband have been going through some tough financial troubles lately and while I try to help them as much as I can, there's only so much I can do on my limited income. My sister is currently off work while she recuperates from a recent operation. She is not getting paid while she is off so this further increases their financial burden.

With Christmas fast approaching it doesn't look like they will be able to provide much in the way of gifts for their three children. To make Christmas a little better for them I will be inviting them over here for dinner and giving the kids some small gifts.

If I was lucky enough to win this giveaway I would share the goodies with my niece and nephews. Their current computer has had it's day and it would be nice if I could give them new laptops and a printer for the Holiday season. I know it would bring a smile to their faces as well as their Mom and Dad.

I would keep the Touchsmart PC for myself along with the Media Server and Netbook.

RedFlagDeals: My Best Deal of all Time

2008-07-13T12:37:00.002-04:00

Some of you may already know about RedFlagDeals.com, and for those who don't it's a Canadian web site where you can find the best deals on everything from Alphabet Soup to ZZ top cd's.

One of the best deals I've ever found on RedFlagDeals was early last year when a fellow forum member posted a deal he found at his local Wal-Mart. Select UbiSoft XBOX and PS2 games were being liquidated for the amazingly low price of 10 cents each.

I managed to find four of them and traded them in at BlockBuster Video for the Call of Duty 4 XBOX 360 game. After all was said and done it ended up costing me only 45 cents with tax for a game worth $59.99. Quite the deal if I do say so.

Living longer

2008-03-29T16:33:00.002-04:00

Imagine if you will being able to live to the age of 800 or even more. Immortality may be reality in mankind's future. I ran across a post on Shawn Knight's Blog which lead me to Scott’s post at W Revenue dot Com.

Scott attended the Emerging Technology conference in San Diego earlier this month, and spoke about longevity research. He is quite passionate about the idea of extending the human life span by stopping the aging process altogether.

If the aging process could be stopped when we reach the age of say twenty, then our bodies would not decay afterwards, and we would look the same age for the remainder of our lives.

This however is a very controversial subject with religious groups who say that if we were meant to live forever, God would have created humankind that way.

In order to get more people talking about this subject, Scott has agreed to pay $20.00 via paypal to the first 100 people who blog about the subject. It looks like there is still a few spots left, so get blogging people.

Vote for Winning the Web, Get a FREE Tshirt and Win $100

2008-01-12T14:36:00.000-05:00

I'm a noob when it comes to blogging, but I'll give this a shot.

Everyone likes money, and even more so when it's FREE! Two Bloggers (Gyutae Park and Tyler Cruz) are having a little competition on their respective Blog sites. Vote for your favorite Blog and the loser will be paying three people (who voted for the winner) one hundred dollars via Pay Pal. If you know an easier way to make a quick hundred bucks I'd sure like to hear about it.

If you're one of the first fifty to vote for Gyutae Park, you will receive a free T-Shirt. I like free clothes almost as much as I like free money, so my vote goes to Gyutae Park.

Judging by their pictures Gyutae is a real person while Tyler seems to be a cartoon character. I like cartoons as much as the next guy, but I don't think I'd ever vote for one.
Come to think of it, some of our elected officials may as well be cartoon characters for all the good they do. No offense to Tyler, I'm sure he's a real person.

Both sites have their merits, but I prefer Gyutae Park's Winning The Web for the helpful information it imparts to readers. If you have the will power and energy to follow your dreams, you too could be as successful as Gyutae is.

I'll be crossing my fingers and toes in hopes of winning ONE HUNDRED BUCKS!, but even if I don't win, I'll still get a free T-Shirt out of it.

I wonder if I can find more Blog contests giving out jeans, socks, or underpants? I'd never have to buy clothes again. Sounds like a plan.

So anyway, vote for Gyutae Park and get a free T-Shirt and a chance of winning one hundred bucks, or vote for a goofy looking cartoon character.

You have until Monday, January 14th, 9 pm ET to submit your vote, so get off your butt and get to it.

As Jerry Maguire said: SHOW ME THE MONEY! and my free T-Shirt too!

Favorite freeware programs

2007-09-19T13:32:00.000-04:00

Since discovering Usenet a few years ago, I have tried several different Newsgroup programs, however there were very few free ones available. A few weeks ago I discovered a great freeware program called alt.binz.

One thing I really like about this program is the fact that it can be set up to automatically check, repair, and unrar your downloaded files. This is a real time saver.
