Let’s face it. Unless your wrist wear makes a serious statement, there’s no logical reason to wear a watch. The practicality of two mechanical arms telling you what time of day it is died with the Smartphone. But taking your phone out every 2 seconds to check how many people commented on your Keg Stand photos can be a pain in the ass. If you can have time on your wrist, in 2011, why can’t you have Social Media too. Good news. You can.
Digital Recording Bionoculars. Yeah, how bout that?

In the middle of your basement, a Pool Table will always be a symbol of status and that you know how to throw a party. Even in the world of Pool Tables however, there must be a King and I believe I’ve just discovered it. The Obscura Digital Cuelight Pool Table has a touch screen, interactive surface, reacting to your every move in whatever manner you see fit. Seriously badass.
As time goes on (No pun intended, really), I notice less and less people are wearing watches. Personally I’m a huge watch fan and I wouldn’t know what I’d do without those extra couple of ounces weighing down my wrist. I get it though. Carrying a phone is so much easier. But what if you didn’t even have to reach in to your pocket? What if all you had to do was glance at your ring finger?
Today was officially named however, by decree of California Governor Jerry Brown, Steve Jobs Day, for a dude who happens to have convinced America that owning one particular computer makes you more special than owning another. The iPhone is pretty cool but has this gotten out of hand?
The sleek black with red trim look is perfect for head-bobbing to some Lil Wayne, strolling through the dorms or sitting and reading The Campus Socialite. But the next logical step, after targeting the Rap crowd, is targeting the Hipster crowd. Retro is in and today Beats By Dre released 6 new Hipsterific colors. You might wanna ask Starbucks for a raise.
Welcome to the future, Socialites. The Parrot Asteroid for all intents and purposes is basically a Droid (or iPhone if it used iOS) lodged in the dashboard of your car. You know how touch screen and smart technology changed the way you use a phone? Get ready to have it change the way you use a car.
