I found this great post over at Fly Away Cafe, showing what would be a cute little gift to give to a person who travels frequently - or get one for yourself! It’s a tiny little pedometer, no bigger than a credit card, which makes it convenient to carry with you. It would [...]

Wi-Fi is becoming more and more popular these days, but unfortunately a lot of other devices can interfere with the signals. Wi-Spy is a nifty little 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzer.

A regular hotel might not hit my radar for this type of a blog, but this particular hotel does. Why? Because the Jules Underwater Lodge is located 21 feet below the surface in Key Largo, Florida, and you have to scuba dive to get there.

Remember when I posted some annoying clocks that you can take with you on your business trips to make sure you don’t sleep in and miss that early morning meeting because of jet lag?
Here’s another one and this will definitely wake you up because you’ll be so ticked off you’ll want to beat it to [...]

Here’s an interesting Christmas gift for your favorite traveler or for yourself - everyone can use a nice little 2 GB storage drive to transport their data with them as they fly here, there, and everywhere. If you happen to be a big Star Wars fan, you might be very tickled to own this [...]

I’m currently fighting a very fun (not) gastro bug, and so is one of my kids. In honor of that, I searched around for things that are helpful if you’re unfortunate enough to be sick while you’re traveling.
