As per a survey by Pew Research Center, popularity of online newspapers has been increasing over the years as compared to print. It has emerged as third most popular form of news after national and local TV stations. More than half of the American population visits two to five websites for updating themselves with the latest news. Online newspapers are available in both free and paid content format. For accessing premium content a person generally has to opt for monthly or yearly newspaper subscription.

Most of the online news seekers stick to a few websites for their news needs. The impact of online newspapers is such that there has already been a drop by 50% of regular readers of newspapers which include both local and national newspapers. Print newspapers have been facing tough time as more and more users are migrating to online newspapers.

With increasing popularity of online newspapers, companies have decided to charge a fee for accessing these websites. Now it needs to be seen how online readers react to it as up till now they were used to free content.

Online printing needs for your mobile office
© jurvetson
Some people want to move with the flow and for this very reason adopt mobile offices which always keep them on the move. Mobile office implies you can't keep your baggage as you would do in a brick and motor establishment. When we talk about mobile office we can't miss out on the mobile printer which can meet all your printing needs online.

Online printing solution ensures that you don't have to invest your precious time in creating design and typeface for your printing jobs, rather just click on the mouse and search among several printing company websites where you can get customized templates and print samples.

Online printing is extremely easy as you can see all the instructions on the screen and all you need to do is choose the template of your choice, enter your specifications and message and click enter. Within a matter of time everything will be printed for you and all you need to do is relax for the shipment to arrive.

At the end of the day why invest in expensive printers when you can benefit from online printing without any kind of investment.

Withings Body Scale: Measure your weight the smart way

Withings Body Scale: Measure your weight the smart way

image source: withings

I just hate the thought of having to manually note my weekly progress on the weight scale and then calculate (it just sucks) how much I have lost in terms of fat. Now here comes the sleek and elegant Withings Scale which measures your weight by sending miniscule electric current into your body. Depending upon the amount of resistance, it calculates how much of the weight of your body is lean mass and how much is fat mass. BMI is also calculated by the machine and the data is sent to a website where it is tracked, graphed and laid out for you to visualize and chalk out a weight loss strategy.

Not only is it smart on the inside but even on the outside with its sleek metallic look and is something which doesn't need to be shoved under the bed.

Before I sign off, one thing I would like to share with you all is that people having pacemaker should avoid it as it uses small amounts of electric current for arriving at calculations which could interrupt its functioning.

Price: $159

Corky: The Wireless Biodegradable Mouse

Corky: The Wireless Biodegradable Mouse
It is wireless and is green too. This is Corky, a wireless mouse which is can be used both at your home and office. It has been designed by Adele Peters. The best thing about this mouse is that it gets charged by kinetic energy generated by motion of your hand. Also it has been created from recycled cork shell and plastic components. It is biodegradable and waterproof and has already found a place in the finalist list of Greener Gadgets Design Competition.

I am very much impressed by its green concept of using biodegradable and recyclable material and discarding alkaline batteries which can lead to degradation of the environment. Let's hope this concept finds the light of the day and ends up on every computer table across the world.

Wisair Wireless USB DisplayDock Set: Seamlessly connect your Macbook and Desktop
Attention all MacBook users!! Wisair has created a supportive wireless gadget Wireless USB DisplayDock Set which enables MacBook users to establish connection between their Macbook and desktop. This USB port compatible adapter can be used in a simple manner and is just like any other flash drive available in the market. With a single wireless link one can easily connect Macbook with monitor, mouse, keyboard and speaker otherwise you would need to connect four cables or adapters like mini-Displayport to USB cable for the keyboard, VGA or DVI adapter cable, mouse and audio for a MacBook as VGA or DVI connectors are not processed by any MacBook platform. All this happens in a seamless manner and it can be used conveniently at home or office.

Wisair Wireless USB DisplayDock Set will be released by the end of next month but the price tag has still not been disclosed.
