Doubleshot.energy.lockupThe good folks over at Starbucks are sponsoring a contest right here on Everyview and hooking five readers up with some pretty sweet prizes! It’s easy and free to enter (so long as you follow the rules included after the jump) and all you have to do is leave a comment for your chance to win a prize pack from Starbucks themselves.

The theme this time around is one anyone with a job will be easily able to relate with, at least if you are even remotely like any of us Everyview writers. Simply let us know what you do while at work to make it look like you’re working when you are actually not doing a damn thing to benefit your employing company.

We all do it, so it’s nothing to be ashamed of. And hey, maybe your technique for laziness could help some of the less skilled bums get by a little better.

[Tech Review] Energizer Flat Panel Wii Remote Induction Charger

The Wii has more than its fair share of charging solutions available. Countless products from different manufacturers that all perform the same tasks similarly and in almost identical fashion makes it easy to get lost when shopping for a decent controller charger. There have been many attempts at making excellent chargers, and only few have succeeded.

Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve written a review here. I’ve been meaning to post this for a few weeks now, just been busy and stressed. But now I’m coming back, and I’m gonna kick things off with the Gunnar Optiks glasses (Attaché Phenom style).  These yellow-tinted glasses are specifically designed for sitting in front of a computer screen. They claim to reduce eye strain and fatigue. They’re also supposed to give you sharper vision.  Do these glasses do anything they claim to? Read on to find out.

[Tech Review] Schwinn 12-Function Bicycle Speedometer

 – September 24, 2009Posted in: Featured, Tech

I’m sure most of you are wondering why I thought it would be necessary to own a speedometer for my bicycle, so I’ll go ahead and explain myself. I’ll start by telling you that no, it isn’t because I didn’t want to accidentally surpass the speed limit, though my muscular and tone legs are probably more than capable of pulling that off.

I was riding down a hill on the side of one of my town’s busier streets and decided to cut through the grass and hop off  a curb and into the road. Apparently there was a ditch in said grass that I was unable to see, because the grass was evenly cut so the turf looked smooth. I hit the ditch and was thrown over the handlebars a good ten feet onto the asphalt, landing on an awkward combination of my head, neck, shoulder, and knee.

[Game News] Nintendo Announces Black Wiimote, Pink and White DSi

By

 – September 1, 2009Posted in: Games, Tech

blackwiimoteThose of us who took an early interest in Nintendo’s now market-leading Wii system remember it being flaunted in a bevvy of colors. Green, blue, pink and some other colors were shown, but black and white understandably stood out as the pack favorites, with white eventually winning the color war.

Those of you, myself included, who were rooting for a black Wii (lol) will find Nintendo’s latest Wii-related announced a tad bittersweet. The Big N has just revealed that they will launch a black variation of the Wiimote, the Nunchuck, and the Wii Motion Plus peripheral this holiday season. Sadly enough, however, no black version of the actual system has been announced as of the time of this writing, but I’ll remain hopeful.

pinkandwhitedsiAccompanying the new color of the Wii accessories is two new DSi colors — white and pink. These two new colors, making four DSi variations total, will be available beginning September 13, 2009.

[Tech News] The Auto-Tuner

By
The Everyview Team
 – June 26, 2009Posted in: Music, Tech

bigasschainSince the dawn of time, man has had music. With this music came the frustrating and foreign idea of “pitch,” with asserts that the music you make should sound a certain way. This notion has stunted the common non-talented man’s creativity for too long. That is why we came up with the auto-tuner, a small computer chip that is installed into one’s throat. This little marvel of technology gives the singer/cyborg the illusion of “knowing what the hell they’re doing when it comes to singing.”

You’re probably asking yourself, “Why don’t they just leave singing to people who know what they’re doing?”

[Tech Review] Cardboard Box

 – June 2, 2009Posted in: Tech

cardboard-boxIf you’re like me, you have things. They’re pretty great, but they take up space. Things like chairs, books, clothes hangers and pet birds. When things are just sitting around in the way, it gets pretty hard managing your living space. Well, luckily scientists just released a breakthrough in storage technology. It’s big, it’s brown, and it’s cube-shaped. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a new era in “putting things in other things,” The Cardboard Box.

Now, I know what you’re saying to yourself. “Thomas, I don’t fully understand the message you’re trying to convey to me. That thing’s huge, how is it going to make MORE space?”  Well, reader, I’ve got a little secret for you:

The box is hollow.

[Tech News] PSP Go Revealed

psp-goThanks to a recently leaked episode of Qore, Sony’s own Monthly Video Game Program, the world now knows that the long-rumored PSP Go is a real piece of tech and it’s on its way. No one is really sure why this happened, but the episode went live to feature the series’ hostess speaking with SCEA Director of Hardware John Koller about Sony’s newest handheld system.

Within the leaked episode is also talk of a new PSP Metal Gear, Gran Turismo, and a first look at the previously announced LittleBigPlanet Portable. I’m thinking this covers just about all of the big news they had planned for the portable market at E3. Good job, Sony.

[Tech News] I Guess Nintendo Isn’t Really Making a Phone Anytime Soon

By

 – May 27, 2009Posted in: Tech

A long while back some of you readers who are, like myself, hardcore Nintendo geeks, might remember a leaked patent that pointed to a possibility of a Nintendo-made cell phone. When that was released, fans went insane thinking about the possibilities that could become reality with introduction of a “Nintendphone” to the market. Since that day Nintendo has hinted at the possibility of a phone being in the works, saying that they’d be all over it if they could find a way to provide service without complicated monthly fees.

Until now.

[Tech News] Nintendo Deals a Crushing Blow to Handheld Pirates

By
Zac Pritcher
 – May 26, 2009Posted in: Games, Tech

A short while ago we reported on a small piracy device called the Supercard DS(onei) that seemed to put piracy on the winning side of the war for a good long while. Nintendo, however, found a way to combat the thieves by teaming up with both eBay and Amazon to cease all sales of the Supercard, R4, AceKard or any flashcart used to pirate handheld games.
