Funny Friday Reviews are back!
Friday, December 19th, 2008
We’ve had a bit of a break but people have been missing our Funny Friday Reviews so much that we’ve brought them back early. Here are some of the more humorous reviews over on Reevoo
“If you dont like the mindless pursuit of slaughtering zombies, this may not be for you”
“Many times i am watching tv and the bell goes off and i don’t hear it. Ending up with burnt pizza, er i mean spoilt home made Chicken casserole.” Indesit FI31
“Not much help with pronunciation, not that I expect to use it for conversation very much!” Cambridge Latin Course 1
“As soon as I saw this I new it would be perfect for my nephew and as soon as it arrived I knew it would be perfect for me!!” Spongebob Squarepants Karaoke
“Used them for driving in Southern USA. Got a really dark tan. Went into a golf clubhouse with a golf club in my hand and was mistaken for Stevie Wonder.” Scott Glasses

Gadget watch - peanut butter machine
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

This week’s gadget watch is possibly one of our favourites. If you’re a peanut butter fiend, read on.
The Peanut Butter Machine allows you to create your own buttery peanutness at home! Just add peanuts! And it will take care of the crunchy/smooth debate too - just pick which kind you like and it’ll deliver it in minutes. You can use any kind of shell nut so you can create your own nutty buttery mixtures and best of all, you’ll know exactly what’s going in them - no additives or other nasties. Try macadamia or even cashew butter for a really interesting spin on a classic.
These fabulous machines are available for US $49.98 and will soon be working their way over to the UK. We’ll keep you posted!

Gadget watch - handy kitchen gadget
Thursday, August 14th, 2008
Here’s a gadget for those of you that need a little help in the kitchen department. This digital pasta timer spoon will make sure you produce a perfect plate of pasta, every time. You key in the type of pasta you’re cooking - from one of its 11 pre-programmed varieties - the weight of the pasta you’re cooking and even your preferred texture. An alarm will sound when your pasta is coked and then Bob’s your uncle - Perfect pasta! (well, in this case, Roberto’s your uncle, if we’re being authentically Italian ‘n all).
You can pick one up for £16.20 from Premier Cutlery, who ship globally.
If you think this is a cool gadget, you can vote for it in Coolest Gadgets’ weekly competition.
