Wouldn't it be great to get your content in front of people while they're visiting Google.com or other webpages? More eyeballs on your site means more opportunities for your content to reach visitors, along with, of course, your AdSense ads. Google Gadgets enables you to do just that.Gadgets are miniature devices that offer cool, dynamic content ranging from games to news clips to weather reports to just about anything you can dream up. They've been around for a while, but their reach got a lot broader last week when we made it possible for anyone to add gadgets to their own webpages. That means you! Here's an example of a flight status tracker, for instance, that can be placed on any page on the web.You can search for free gadgets to add to your own webpages in our directory of gadgets for your webpage. To display a gadget, just pick the one you like, set your preferences, click "Get code," and copy-and-paste the HTML onto your own page. Add some 'bling' to your site and 'wow' your re
Prof. Know Why answers: If you notice, you will find that newer and technologically advanced gadgets are mostly, if not always, targeted to the younger generation. Why? If you think - because they have more spending powers, think again! While it might be true and could be one reason, the main reason could very strongly be that older people find it difficult to adapt to new gadgets readily. But why is that, psychologically predisposed older men and women find it difficult to take to new technology? Scientists claim to have worked out why people in their late 40s and 50s have to get their children to load their iPods for them. The older you get the more difficult it is for your conscious mind to override years of “pre-programming”, they say. Combined with damaging physical changes in the cell structure of the brain – the result of natural ageing and maybe a little alcohol – the effects can be, at best, confusing. The research may explain why even people in early middl

Thanks to the popularity of golf, there are many golf gadgets available today. As more people want to play the game, more ways are sought to improve their game. The once steady golf industry has now expanded to a much larger industry. Some companies are built around only one piece of golf equipment. Golf gadgets available range from some incredibly useful golf aids to some slightly more ridiculous items. Here are some of the options.If you can’t seem to find the time to spend at the driving range and your backyard is too small to practice your golf swing, all hope is not lost thanks to virtual golf. Of course, this is not quite as satisfying as feeling the club strike the ball, but it may be a good solution between trips to the course.

Or, you can opt for a net in which you can hit the ball except you will, obviously, have to hit the net each and

I’m sure you’ve gone “oohh” and “ahhh” over the Apple iPhone.
For some (and for me), it’s the perfect mobile phone - Ever. Period. Now, are you wondering when is the release date for iPhone in the Philippines? Sorry but it’s not this year.
Unfortunately, AT&T has a deal with Apple for an apperent lock-down on exclusive rights as telco in the United States. The iphone was released in the US last June 29 in what Steve Jobs and company dubbed, the most succesful product intro of the 21st century.
With record-breaking sales, Apple now anticipate 13.5 million iPhone sales by the end of 2008, with Apple planning to produce 8 million of the devices by the end of 2007 - well ahead of Steve Jobs’ target of ten million sales by the end of 2008.
But when can WE Pinoys get our hands on it? That, after the jump…

Okay… lemme ask you guys a question?
How many times has this happened to you?
You get an important phone call or SMS message. Suddenly, you hear the annoying beeps indicating that your battery is (yet again) low! Soon, your phone dies down on you and you can’t return the call or the text. Doesn’t it bother you that there’s also NO charger within 10 miles?!?
