Like Wow Dude! surfing the tasty waves of technology.

So I was checking out this site called BevNet.com and I came across some really wild Energy Drinks. Here's a few that caught my eye:

- Pimp Juice
- Hemp Soda
- Mad Croc
- Merlin Energy Source
- Pit Bull Energy Drink
- Shark Energy Drink
- Trek Accelerator
- Bong Water (not an energy drink but I found it somewhat interesting just the same...)

A Router & Some Ice Cream!

I'm an account manager for a large networking company. I sell high-end networking equipment. And it's a pretty cool job. But there's a part of me that wants to just leave it all behind and open up something like a Marble Slab Creamery. I get so sick of forecasts and sales in general that some days the thought of buying a franchise in a completely different industry begins to sound really nice.

Herman Miller Aeron Chair

It occurred to me that if you're going to listen to music with your $225,000 stereo speakers (see blog below) you should at least be comfortable while you're listening. So let me recommend a nice Herman Miller Aeron Chair. Prices range from around $800 to $1,200.

And here's an article that talks about the new Mirra chair by Herman Miller.

$225,000 Stereo Speakers!

I was on a plane this morning flying back from Florida and I read a great article in FSB on a company called Wilson Audio. I had no idea you could buy stereo speakers for $225,000. Probably because it's just a little out of my price range. Their least expensive model sell for $11,700 but thier WAMM speakers sell for over $225,000!

Here's the article:
Who would pay $125,000 for stereo speakers?

nTag Interactive

nTag makes intelligent name tags for events, sales meetings, conventions, etc... You program them with your personal data. Then, using infrared technology they read other name tags and find things that you have in common with them. The information is then displayed on a small screen on the front of the tag.

If it means I no longer have to put on a fake smile, mingle and make cheesy small talk.... far out!

Power-line Internet

Power-line Internet, (powerline communications - PLC), is a new technology that will turn your home's electrical wiring into a broadband network. And we're talking speeds of 2Mbps! I have to admit that I like the idea of seeing a little competition in the broadband market. Current Technologies & Amperion are two companies that are leading the way.

What's Next: Power Surge: is a great article in Inc.com magazine that goes into detail about this new technology!
