The human body is a walking scientific spectacle. Even though the DNA between you and me is virtually 99% the same, it’s that 1% sliver that differentiates all of us. Some like it hot. Some like it cold. Some can take the heat. Others simply drop like flies. For the ground thumpers out there, carrying a mini fan with you everywhere you go can be a nuisance and at times embarrassing. Thankfully there is the solar powered hat fan. Featuring two small solar panels and an actual miniaturized fan, this hat will keep your noggin nice and cool even when mother nature and Mr. Sun try their hardest to bring you down. The best part? It’s only $16 to be able to call this little wonder yours. Now will it actually work as advertised? At least you’ll pull of the geeky look. But such things are trivial when life, comfort, and just plain livability are concerned. Let us know how it goes!

Twitter is quickly becoming the defacto standard for communication in the tech world as it allows instant notification to thousands of people at once. While you sister to breaking news gets shared via Twitter, perhaps the most useful (to geeks anyway) is that of new product announcements. You see, the old way of doing things was to have a formal press release followed by a couple live demos or shows to showcase your companies new product. Heck, now you spend 10 seconds typing out a tweet and that’s it. Everyone will find it relatively quickly. It certainly cuts down on wait time doesn’t it. Moving on, Twitter’s latest revealing comes by way of T-Mobile and the Touch Pro2, which, as you can gather from the context of the sentence was accomplished on T-Mobile’s Twitter account. So all of you Touch Pro 2 hopefuls, are you ready for “summer”, the claimed release date of the TP2? Since we’ve already made it through June and part of July, I’d say your window of lust is rather short. Happiness all around!
