[Sorry. This is one of those posts about Kevin Rose which I write because I hope he Googles himself on a daily basis, finds this post, finds my email address, emails me about meeting up next time he's in London, which happens to be in a couple of weeks, when he takes me out, we…

If something has got a hint of penicillin about it, don't eat it. If it smells funny, don't eat it. If you can't remember when you put it in the fridge, don't eat it. Or, if you can't keep track of these simple rules, buy the DaysAgo Digital Counters. You attach them to anything in…

There really doesn't seem to be a reason to make hearing aids beige, unless you're bald. If you're into camouflage, it makes more sense to blend it with the colour of your hair, which is exactly what Siemens are aiming to do with the latest 'Life' range of hearing aids. But if you're the kind…

They're being branded 'the 4x4s of the living room' because they use up to four times more energy than CRT TVs and still…

I adore it when Zara finds fitness gadgets to film - I always finish watching the video thinking that that particular product is definitely the one to end my regime of non excercise. This one is no exception - not only does it involve centrifugal force (see below) it has flashing lights. Is it a…
