Gmail now with Video Chat!

Since sometimes reading “lol” doesn’t deliver the same punch as actually hearing your friend laugh at your jokes, you can now use voice and video capabilities in your Gmail chat. From within Gmail, you can have an actual conversation with someone (seriously, out loud), or even chat face to face over video.

Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

  • Download the Gmail voice and video chat plug-in, quit all open browser windows, and install the plug-in.
  • Sign in to Gmail.
  • In the Chat section of your Gmail, select the contact you want to call. If they have a camera icon next to their name, you can make a voice or video call to them; just click Video & more.

If your friend doesn’t have a camera next to their name in your chat list, you can invite them to download the Gmail voice and video chat plug-in from the Video & more menu in a chat window. Even if your friend doesn’t have a video camera, you can still make a voice call or a 1-way video call.

LED Shower Light

Get Bathed with Light

Blue light changes to red when the water heats up!

If you’re like us, you have learned to flex your schedule to avoid the rush hour of your local city. Some of us get up super early. It’s dark, then, and we smell. So we shower because we care about our coworkers. But turning on the bathroom light is too much for our weary eyes and many times we step into the shower before it has warmed up. In a word: it sucks. But the Geek Gods have smiled on us all, when they blessed us with the LED Shower Light.

The LED Shower Light is a brilliant idea. It installs to a standard shower pipe in mere minutes. When you turn the shower on, the water powers a turbine and the LED Shower Light…well, lights up! Blue let’s you know the water is chilly. When the water warms up to 89° F (32° C), the light changes to red. Now you can step in and not freeze your giblets off. And you don’t even need to turn on the light now, because your whole shower glows. It makes for a much nicer morning, trust us. Oh, and if you are the adventurous type, it also makes showers a little more fun for two. Just saying, is all. Read the rest of this entry »
