I, CRINGELY -- Imperial Oil - Why BP's failing and even scarier news that's not being reported anywhere else.

-3-

ENGADGET -- HP teams with Google to give connected printers their own email address - would make it easier to print snapshots from your phone or print from cloud-based apps like Google Docs

From Patrick.

Secret, transforming furniture. Very slick. If we ever decide to downsize but want to still have lots of flexibility, I'm checking out this company. (If you watch until almost the end, don't tune out when he starts talking, there's more cool stuff to be seen.)



-10- VIDEO

Microwaved iPad. Skip to 3:30 where they start the microwave and if you get bored, to 6:30 where it gets pretty darned interesting.
