Toys For Boys

By Donny Donatelli

As a kid, I remember collecting pails of Lego just to be build replications of my favorite vehicles, buildings, animals and appliances I see at home. It is funny due to the fact right after I successfully build the replicas I want out of Lego, I have to take it apart so that I could build more out of the building blocks. I didn't have much Lego back then so I didn't really have any a choice but to take them down.

I continued playing with it until I was 15 years old. I was such a late bloomer with the newest games that time which include the SuperNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System). I only knew about Lego and Family Computer due to the fact that these were the only toys that we had access to as children. So our friends will come over to our house and play with our Lego or play a Mario Brothers game within in our family computer console from Japan.

As I grew up, I still wasn't in a position to enjoy other toys that the other rich kids were getting to enjoy that time which include scooters, in-line skates, skateboards and trampoline. But I had something that the majority of the kids in the neighborhood didn't have and they often came over to our house to ask me out to play. Of course, bringing my BMX along with me was the highlight. When we all get to the park, each one takes turn to ride on my bike and in return, they offered me their in-line skates, skateboards and other imported toys that their parents had bought for them recently just so they could get turns of riding my bike. I did appreciate their toys for a short period of time but certainly, I was still a kid who wanted all the toys in the world.

That's why right now that I am 28 years old, I will say that I am getting to enjoy practically each one of the latest gizmos that electronics manufacturers tend to be coming up with regularly to satiate the insatiable thirst of gadget freaks like me. The time when the Xbox 360 arrived, I was one of the persons within our neighborhood that got one and I am just proud to say that it took quite a while for the next person to get one like mine.

Then when the Ipod Touch arrived, I also grabbed one for myself. Same thing happened when the Iphone, Iphone 3g and also the Iphone 3gS became available, I was one of the first people to have one. I also possess the most excellent laptop I know I could afford that I use for gaming, for editing photographs and videos, a printer to print out all my work, a magnificent DSLR camera that makes me take professional snap shots that could give Nigel Barker a run for his funds. All these and I am still upgrading each and every stuff that I find in the market that suits my taste.

You notice it's hardly ever too late to appreciate the things that we weren't in a position to enjoy as youngsters provided that we work hard for it. I believe that hard-earned funds are money well-spent.

Best Apple iPad Tablet For You

By Merlina Linx

The iPad is selling like hotcakes -- an estimate of 2000 units per hour. The people who buy the iPad all have a wide range of interests. Some buy it for gaming, some buy it just to be the first on the early adopter train and some are still undecided whether they should invest in one. This article will examine the iPad as an eReader device and it will list the pros and cons of using the iPad as your main eReader.

Probably not, but the Apple is trying to use it to boomerang an existing niche market, the small tablet PC market, into competition with the laptop and note book market, to some extent.

Apples expects there will be a downward migration from laptop users into iPad users, there buy increasing the size of the tablet market, and providing Apple with a lower barrier to entry.

There has been so much hype over this and rightly so. Pat of Apple's brilliance is the way it promotes and markets their products. Surely the style and functionality of the products are the cutting edge into the market, but apple knows how to create a buzz. Notice all those ads for iPad giveaways. They really aren't scams.

Sure you may have to subscribe to a couple of magazines and take a few surveys, but in the end you'll get your free iPad. This is where Apple is genius. Instead of spending millions on TV ads, they are approaching this launch in other ways.

If your boss sends you an email that drives you mad (yes, I know it happens daily) then it's just a simple tap of your finger (preferably your middle one) and the email is swiftly deleted. Tada! You gotta love that.

Oh and if you want to send someone pictures via email yourself using your iPad tablet you can do that as well because the iPad has a built in Photos app which makes this a doddle to do. No more messing around. It saves you time which means you'll have more time to download useless iPad apps and while away those hours on a Friday afternoon in the office!

So yes, I said it - using the iPad tablet for email actually makes emailing fun because it's so easy to do and you have fun doing it. And one day all people will use an iPad to do their email and emailing activities, mark my words.

A Unique Idea Isn't the Only Way to Win

By James A Gardner

Ideas are always a creative response to a problem without a present-day solution. People dream them up as the wonder what they might do to solve their problems, and they draw on inspirations from their environments around them to do so. What people forget is that neither their problems, nor the inspirations from which they draw solutions, are exclusively theirs. Everyone else is likely to face almost the same challenges. And they'll certainly come up with similar solutions.

This, more than any other reason, is why you often see the same idea surfacing in two or more places at once, even when the creative people proposing the solution don't know each other at all.

We can probably conclude, from this, that it isn't ideas which result in successful innovation.

One suggestion is that what's needed is a programatic processes which allows creative people to build a track record of big product hits. The argument arises from fact that it isn't ideas which are important to the innovation process, but execution which follows. Clearly, there are limited resources available in any organisation, so a laser sharp focus on what counts is a good idea.

This, and variations on it, is the strategy iconic companies such as Apple have followed with great success. Apple has had a string of major product hits. First, it created the iPod, which redefined the way music is sold. Then it sold iPhone, which makes the name of the game in telephony about Apps, rather than features. And finally, it released iPad, which it expects to change the way customers acquire and enjoy the products of the liberal arts.

The fact is, none of these products came from very unique ideas, and it is certainly hard to say they are innovative. But they are designed beautifully, and each has built its success on the last.

In the end, this is the real signal that a company has a major, and successful innovation program working for it.

10 Reasons To Purchase A Blackberry Rather Than An Iphone

By Jerry Le Bon

When choosing a smartphone it can be difficult to base your decision on facts rather than media hype and peer pressure. This is particularly true of Blackberrys and iphones where they are as much about status as what they can actually provide their users. This article explains why the Blackberry is more superior and cites 10 areas where it's better than the iphone.

1. With a 3.2 megapixel camera the Blackberry has by far the best camera of all the smartphones, particularly the iphone which only has a 1.2 mega pixel camera.

2. The iphone has no moving parts so you can't replace the battery with a more charged battery should you be running low.

3. The headphones that come as standard on the Blackberry are very good quality and are far better than those that come with the iphone. It means you don't have to incur the extra cost of replacing them.

4. The screen of the Blackberry is far superior to that of the iphone. It is estimated to have 12.5 percent more picture element that the iphone and also has a more traditional screen ratio of 4:3

5. Unlike to iphone, it's possible to use the Blackberry as a USB dongle and attach it to a laptop to provide internet connection over GPRS. This isn't a feature the iphone has.

6. Apple iphone's are built on the Mac operating system and are therefore an easier target for hackers. A significant number of iphone users have lost a data and contact information this way.

7. With it's microSD slot it's very simple to nsert a 16GB memory card to bring it to the same level as it's competitors.

8. The Blackberry is far better with dealing with emails. It automatically connects with the internet servers whilst the iphone has to wait for emails to be 'pushed' to it.

9. It's not possible to send picture messages on a iphone due to a over sight by the Apple developers. It is possible on the Blackberry and most other smartphones for that matter.

10. The QWERTY keyboard that comes with all Blackberry's make it very easy for new users to pick up the skills required to type quickly. The touchscreen pad on the iphone is quite difficult, particularly for older users to understand.
