Gadgets : Six Foot Walk On Water Ball

AnitaJ — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0600

Summer is here and that means fun in the water. What would be more fun than walking across the pool, lake, or stream atop the Six Foot Walk On Water Ball. Talk about fun games. Instead of just floating around you and your friends could enjoy hours of all kinds of fun such as racing or playing bumping water balls. This unit will need an electric pump in order to inflate in around five minutes. It also deflates just as fast - thankfully. You also get a roper and tie down grommets so you can secure the ball to the dock when you need a break. Both fun and neat.

Gadgets : Soundproofing the Digital Age

PeterJ — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0600

Inside information from industries involved in the creation of vinyl layering and chemical manufacturing tells EggHeaven of a breakthrough in the creation of vinyl paint technologies that can reduce sound pressure on both sides of a layer thus reducing noise interference from both external and inside sources. Specifics are around a 30-50% sound reduction for materials painted with this layering thus making it suitable for rooms with outside noise interference or for preventing internal sounds leaking outside the painted container. Some people concerned with disturbing others when using gadgets such as the USB Drum Kit we featured recently or indeed other such sound-based instruments would welcome this news as would those of us living within relatively noisy environments. The New Scientist link has related information on this subject.
