If you're Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, the answer to that question is, "yes!" Bezos says the technology is ready for drone delivery of Amazon products, but it's the regulatory side that's lagging behind. He tells the Telegraph that Prime Air is being worked on in a number of research centers: “One day Prime Air deliveries will be as common as seeing a mail truck,” says Bezos...

Back in June, I shared with you the story of the Lexus "Slide" hoverboard (click here for the earlier post). When Lexus released their teaser video, many derided it as being a fake and/or hoax. Well, the folks at Lexus promised proof, and they've delivered...

I started using Google Translate a few weeks ago when I found it made communication with a friend a lot (and I mean a lot) easier. My friend is Chinese, and his English is a little rough. I'm an American, and my Chinese is...well, is non-existent...

Maybe, like me, you're old enough to remember when Earl Scheib would paint any car for $99. Well, judging by what I've seen of his work, German graffiti artist Rene Turrek would probably charge you a bit more than Earl would have. Turrek made a splash last year with an incredible paint job on a late model BMW...

I didn't realize that, like my father-in-law, Marty, an estimated 300 million people worldwide are unable to discern the colors in the spectrum above. Being able to see colors in all their glory is something many of us (including me) take completely for granted...

C'mon, it's only a hundred thousand dollars (or so), and think about how cool you'll look! I guess if Martin Jetpack could guarantee that you'd look like Sean Connery, they'd sell out their entire inventory within a few minutes. Really, it's time to forget all about flying cars (seriously, you've seen the way people drive on the ground, do you really want those same lousy drivers with flying cars.

As I often point out to my kids, cameras have changed just a little bit from when I was their age. All of you who remember when it was all a mystery as to what was on the camera until you had the film "developed," that you had to hope that no one blinked (because there were no re-dos), and that we were thrilled when the Polaroid One-Step Camera was introduced, can back me up on this one.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about a guy named Catalin Alexandru Duru, who, at the time, had just set a Guinness World Record for the "Farthest Journey by Hoverboard." Even though the "hoverboard" he used was very cool, it didn't really match up with the one from the Back to the Future movies (check out the piece with accompanying video here)...

I've posted several really cool videos that have been shot with GoPro cameras, but this one is really taking hi-def video to the outer limits. Captured by placing the camera inside a two-stage Falcon 9 rocket, the video shows us, in real-time, the rocket tumbling back to earth after the delivery of its payload: I'm reasonably certain that at some point, we'll have some kind of "extreme athlet

I love my smartphone. You probably love yours, too. It does so many things that I find cool or useful, and it seems like every time I turn around, there's a new, revolutionary app that makes life easier, quicker, or just more fun. Take SoundHound for example...
