A new camera that you can focus later, Skype can connect your username to your IP address, new infrared camouflage system for tanks, seeing through walls with cool tech, and lots of calls from listeners. Assistive typing with devorak vs qwerty keyboards or use a camera-microphone-pen and more. Al is back with a Crazy USB and Ben and Lyle are there too.
The ability to see through walls is no longer the stuff of science fiction, thanks to new radar technology developed at MIT
The study focused on how a Skype user’s IP address can be determined without that user knowing, and then linking that same IP address to files that are being shared through peer-to-peer networks such as BitTorrent.
Using information that users publish in Skype’s directory, such as their name, location and birth date, the researchers were able to get very close to identifying the person doing the sharing. They note, however, the method will just identify a machine rather than an actual person behind the computer.
The revolutionary camera lets you shoot everything you point it at, depth-of-field be damned, and allows you to “focus after the fact” in post-processing.

You shred sensitive documents for security but what do you do with CDs and DVDs that contain sensitive data?
It’s dangerous to break them but you can’t just throw them away. USB Powered CD/DVD Destroyer is the answer.
It is an ideal product for destroying data stored on CDs and DVDs, with three carbon steel knurled points, USB Powered CD/DVD Destroyer permanently destroys the surface of CDs, DVDs and other CD-size disks rendering the data-bearing surfaces unreadable within 5 seconds.
Your sensitive data cannot be read and you don’t have to break disks.
Kind of a lot of work to go through when you could just snap it in half, but that’s why its a Crazy USB.
Invisible cloaking technology.
Smartpen that listens as you write, then plays it back.
Further research has been published suggesting there is no link between mobile phones and brain cancer.
Taking notes in class and recording audio matching up to what you are writing. You need patterned paper, but by tapping the things you wrote earlier you can replay what was recorded when you wrote it. Audio matched to your notes – way cool
