Gadgets – we love 'em! That's why today's FamilyFirst site pays homage to that most fascinating piece of human engineering: the gadget.
The site is called Engadget. It's a blog that provides reviews, news, and gossip about gadgets of all sorts.
For instance, at presstime, there was a review of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-R1 SLR digital camera. They weren't impressed.
It's not just little gizmos that get the press. Check out this writeup of self-healing paint from Nissan: “Nissan claims that most scratches will disappear in a day to a week, and that compared to regular paint, this new super-paint only suffers one-fifth of the damage from car washes. Marketed as “Scratch Guard Coat” (they better hope it works better than rustproofing), the new paint will debut in the near future on an unnamed SUV.” Sweet.
There's also a funny article on two drunks who got themselves busted for driving around and repeatedly punching the OnStar button. There's nothing like driving around lit while telling a remote monitoring service exactly where you are, and that you need attention. They got it, from the cops!
The site is divided up into areas specializing in cellphones, gaming, laptops, robots, wireless, etc. The gadget-minded will have lots of fun perusing the various articles on that most irresistible of toys, the gadget!
