ThinkGeek

Attention to all the geeks, gamers, programming-interested people and people interested in technology! ^^

ccjx and I have been visiting a website selling tech-y clothing/toys etc. Introducing... THINKGEEK!

They sell a wide range of products, including T-shirts, toys, electronics, gadgets, books etc... All tech-y.

In this entry, let me give you a rough idea about ThinkGeek products-

T-Shirts

They have different categories of T-shirts, such as 'Gaming', 'Illuminated Tees', 'Science and Math', 'Generic Geek' etc... I'll be introducing a few kinds of shirts that caught my eye =) My categories do not necessarily correspond to that in the site, though.

Slogan Tees
They have Slogan t-shirts that are really quite funny... Though some you might not understand unless you pretty much know your IT stuff. The below is one of the shirts that I found quite funny: No Place Like Home ^^;

Another item I really liked is the 'No, I will not fix your computer' T-shirt =D Heh.

Animated Tees
They have a section called 'Illuminated Tees' as well, that basically animate while you're walking around =) The Wi-fi Detector Shirt really detects the wi-fi signal where you are, and displays the signal strength on your T-shirt by lighting up the corresponding number of bars.

There's also something like a couple T-shirt. If your idea of a couple T-shirt was just this boring same T-shirt that a boy and girl wears, this should change your mindset. This shirt has got 6 hearts on the front of the T-shirt. Normally, there will be only 2 or 3 hearts lit up, but when someone with another shirt comes within hugging distance (their approximate distance is about 5m), all the hearts will light up.

Gadgets, Toys and Gifts

Helpful Gadgets

Apart from MP3s, digital cameras, solar chargers, digital frames and what-nots, they also have something called a Ion USB Cassette Deck where you can convert your old cassette tapes into mp3 files =)

Sophisticated Gadgets
This is something you can have for your home if you envision your future home to be extremely hi-tech and automatic: The RFID Digital Door Lock. It comes with a few RFID smart keys, as well as an installation guide so that you can get it working as soon as possible.

Novelty Gifts
I thought this was good for someone who's crazy about novelty gifts: the Bi-Color LED Blow On-Off Candles. You know how the physical candles work right? They go off when you blow the flame out. This works similarly. When you blow the candle, it goes off. The trait that makes it different from a normal candle would be that it turns on when you blow it too ^^;; There are two different coloured lights that you can toggle on the candle, so that you can create a different atmosphere according to your wishes. ^^

I found that pretty cool, along with the Sun and Moon Jars. The Sun and Moon Jars don't run on batteries, but are solar-operated. So it's energy saving too ;) Works as a great night light for kids =D

Toys
Remember the 20Q toy I was talking about in my previous entry? It's on ThinkGeek as well =D

And no, this is not an advertisement post. I just honestly felt that this site was interesting, so I thought that I'd share it with everyone =D

I hope you find these interesting~
