Be honest: have you ever wanted to control a blaring TV in a waiting room or other public space?
Well, these days you can even though its not something I recommend. However, theres something immensely practical about the TVgo Tiny Remote from QVPUSA.
Yes, its about the tiniest fully functional remote control and even incorporates an LED flashlight!
Its eminently suitable to be carried on my key ring. And there it takes pride of place but is the TVgo really all its hyped up to be?

I recently wrote a Portable Collision Avoidance Systems Overview for Australian Flying in which I summarized most of the earlier reviews which we did on the Zaonflight/SureCheck PCAS sytems, such as on the XRX and MRX.
Have a look below at the article -- sans pictures -- as it appeared this week in Australia's foremost aviation magazine.

Today, we will be taking a look at two different flash drives from OCZ. The first one is the OCZ Rally 2.
The OCZ Rally 2 is a general purpose flash drive used to store your personal files and folders.
The other flash drive we will be taking a look at is the OCZ VBoost Flash drive. While this drive can also be used for personal files, this flash drive was meant to be used with Windows Vista's feature ReadyBoost.
In this review, we will take a look at both of these drives and discuss their design, performance, and functionality. For the VBoost drive, we will focus on how well it performs in Vista in conjunction with ReadyBoost.

Manager Assistant Software Review |

Manager Assistant is a great way for managers to keep track of all
employee-related information all in a single program. It does common
tasks such as keeping track of employee information, doing performance
reviews, or even their attendance.
If you are a manager, have you ever wanted to be able to keep track of
employee information? Managers already have a busy and hectic life,
and keeping tracking of employees is more like a chore to them. If
only managers could keep that kind of information organized so they can
focus on more important tasks. Today, I will be taking a look at a
software program whose main purpose is to provide managers a tool that
consolidates employee information all into a single program interface.
So let's put myself in the shoes of a manager and see how well this
software works.

The Best Things In Life Are Free -- and so it is with ComSwiki.
A decade ago I wouldn't have imagined sitting at a desk with a Mac Mini tucked away underneath, wired to the internet all the time. Yet today it's as if it has always been this way! If you'd ask me which tool I can't do without anymore, there's no doubt in my mind: you'd hear "Comswiki!" as my answer straight away. In this review I'll tell you how I got addicted...

The Draganflyer is an amazing piece of kit: this remote control helicopter has a unique design, is extremely maneuverable and very easy to fly compared to conventional RC helicopters.
We have just taken delivery of the Draganflyer Stabilized Aerial Video System (SAVS) and will bring you a series of in-depth reviews on the unique capabilities of this UAV.
This is not a toy, nor is it a professional tool but occupies a niche position to create some great aerial video.
Here is Part One.
