Taotronics Bluetooth Shower Speaker

Ever wanted to listen to music or answer phone calls in the shower? Well, then your problems are solved because the TaoTronics TT-SK03 is a water resistant wireless bluetooth stereo shower speaker that is a great little device that does it all. I like this compact built, stylish device made with a rubbery material on the outside. It has a suction cup that we can use to attach to any slippery flat surface.

TaoTronics® Products for Our Home and Lifestyle

I really enjoy having useful devices in my home, in the car and when we travel. There are many technology devices that make everyday activities convenient. This TaoTronics' Battery-Powered Motion-Sensing LED Stick-Anywhere Nightlight has become useful for us, as I have placed it in the entrance to our home, so I have a light source when I walk in. I like that the energy saving LED light is bright, and has a white light instead of a dull light.

TaoTronics® Products Our Vehicle and Travel

This Air Vent Mount Car Smartphone Holder from TaoTronics® is a good alternative to suction cup enabled car accessory holders. Having the phone “at our fingertips” attached to the car air vent is very useful. I like that it holds our phone securely without scratching it using two padded expandable arms. The way this holder is designed enables it to fits most phones with different charging inputs. Another advantage of this holder is that it can be turned 360 degrees making it easy to view your phone at a comfortable angle as well as to use larger screened phones in landscape mode.

Revolutionary Way To Clean Laundry

Everyone has to do laundry… and Crystal Wash is something that saves us money, and it is better for the environment. It has clinically demonstrated to be as effective as detergent and allows us to do 1,000 loads of laundry without using detergents, chemicals, dyes or perfumes. I am looking forward to using Crystal Wash, which sounds like an efficient and natural way to do laundry.

TaoTronics LED Multi-function Desk Lamp

My family and I have been using this LED Multifunction Desk Lamp from TaoTronics for a few days now, and I think this type of technology is something everyone will appreciate using on a regular basis. There are four lighting modes on this lamp: reading, studying, relaxing, and sleep time. We can also control five levels of brightness on this lamp by pressing the + or - button. There is also a 60 minute timer. This eco-friendly light provides a safe, comfortable, consistent light that stimulates concentration without eyestrain. I like that when we change the modes, it does not flicker so our eyes are not strained.

Jabra Stealth Bluetooth Headset

I have used many Bluetooth devices before, however nothing compares to this awesome Jabra Stealth that ensures crystal clear conversations at both ends of the call because of its HD voice and Noise Blackout™ technology. This Noise Blackout™ technology reduces background noise from our conversations, making it easy for us to talk with the Bluetooth device as though you are next to the person.

Kanex GoPower Pack™ 11000mAh is a must have portable external battery pack for smartphones, tablets, and other Portable Electronics.

Photography Inspiration from Canon Canada

I love taking pictures. This hobby of taking photography became more of a passion for me when my children were born, as I wanted to capture the moments and memories that I can later use to tell them stories. I think capturing quality clear images make it more exciting to print, or make albums. I really like this Facebook app from Canon Canada that inspires, and allows us to learn how to take pictures of our children so the pictures look professional.

Being Proactive For Online Safety with ESET Mobile Security and Giveaway

I pretty much put our lives on my smartphone because of using the calendar to remember appointments, take pictures and videos of my family and places we go, and store all my contacts. Since this information I store is valuable, I like to take proactive steps to protect myself from the information being hacked or stolen. Thankfully I have always been a little cautious to avoid these situation in the past, and recently added the ESET Mobility Security application on our Android smartphone to make me feel better when I use my phone as well as let my children use it.

Ten Tips for Back-To-School Online Safety

As parents it is important that we teach our children the know-how to handle the growing issue of cyberbullying. According to Canadian not-for-profit organization and official TELUS WISE partner MediaSmarts, cyberbullying is on the rise, with one in ten Canadian students experiencing it last year. Its studies show that cyberbullying can have traumatic effects on youth, with links to depression, yet kids underestimate how much it can impact them, shrugging it off as a normal part of their online interactions.

Samsung GALAXY Note 3 and the SharePlus plans

The Samsung GALAXY Note 3 is a major upgrade from its predecessor, the Note II. I loved the size of the screen that allowed watching movies and using the Internet fun. Combining this device with TELUS’ SharePlus plans give customers the ability to share data across multiple devices or subscribers on the same account, helping families get set up with the latest mobile tech.
