April 20, 2013 by admin 2 Comments

Just Imagine this, you are sitting in an office bored out of your mind by the monotonous work you doing when suddenly you receive a message beneath the desk, thanks to a intimate smartphone app and lingerie  developed by durex

durex australia phone app

Crazy aussie underwear invention stirs people up  !!

And No, it’s not your sleazy boss or colleague trying to get some extra action, its your boyfriend, across town in his own workplace or at home sending a special touch message via his smartphone to your underwear or might i say Fundawear by durex.

The price for this fundawear is possibly estimated  in the $200 price range in australia

 

check out the –

Durex Fundawear — Touch over the Internet [OFFICIAL] Video here

This brand new wacky and weird invention, from Durex – the world’s largest condom manufacturer – is bound to attract attention due to its not too normal appeal.

Durex has come out with prototype technology which Durex claims allows "physical touch to be transferred wirelessly between couples" which is  called “Fundawear  his and hers”.

How fundawear works?

The couples buy and wear Fundawear – boxers for him and knickers and bra for her – which are pre-fitted out with a series of mini-vibrators.By using the touch screen on their “Durex smart phone app” they send signals via the internet from one phone to another, which sets off the vibrations in the underwear or fund a wear.

What is even more interesting is the speed and sequence of the stimulation can be controlled by pushing the right buttons on the touch screen.

This device is pretty much a wireless tickler or stimulator whatever you may like to call it  – Upstairs? Downstairs? Faster or slower.  Whatever your lover prefers. Sending a erotic message via your smartphone just got more personal  and intimate  irrespective of distance between partners  and if not used properly could lead to a sticky situation. This underwear has been extensively tested for replicate the sensuous touch in a  Australian bio mimicry lab by the developers

Last year students at MIT created the Like-A-Hug jacket, which inflates to "hug" the wearer whenever someone "likes" one of their Facebook posts and in in 2006 London-based designers CuteCircuit created an internet-controlled HugShirt. although there are much more explicit inventions like LovePalz and Vibease released int he market.

According to durex australia ”Fundawear is an innovation from Durex that allows touch to be transferred over the internet. Visit http://www.durexperiment.com.auto find out more & get Fundawear for yourself.”

The project is still in the planning stage with only a few samples currently available to test public reaction and is surely set to turn people on when released to the public , not to mention awkward situation in the meeting rooms

Monitor Your Employee Activities Using Mobile Spy Technology

July 20, 2012 by admin 1 Comment

Are you inquisitive to know what your employees are doing during office hours? Well, the only reason for this can be your doubt on those employees who tend to waste time by casually chatting with friends, or passing private information about the company to others through e-mails. In that case, if you really want to find out whether your doubt is valid or not, the only way to do so is to spy on the concerned employee’s mobile phone that has been probably allotted by your own company. Well, the good news is that you can do so to find out what your suspected employee does during office hours, without his or her knowledge. Interestingly, you can read the exact message and e-mail text that your employee has just sent as well as the number that she or he has dialled.

smartphones and mobile spy technology  software

This is the Magic of Mobile Spy Technology!

Yes! The mobile world has been blessed by the boon of mobile spy technology. This is the next generation technology that can make an employer a secret detective agent to remotely keep an eye on the phone activities of the employer no matter where she or he is! With this eye, the employer not only comes to know what the employee was doing during the office hours of the day, but also comes to know where the employee was! Apart from that, the employer can even secretly listen to live calls through Internet!

The Working of the Mobile Spy Technology Occurs Invisibly

The best part of the technology is that it enables you to spy on the concerned mobile phone without letting the user know about it. There are many mobile spying apps that harness this technology to work on different mobile platforms such as Android, iOS, Windows, Symbian, and Blackberry. Some of the most preferred apps are Mobile Spy, Spyera, Phone Sheriff, and StealthGenie. Once you download and install the most appropriate app on the concerned employee’s phone, it begins to work in a stealth mode in the background to track and log:

Spy-vs-spy

● Incoming and outgoing calls and SMSs even if they are wiped off

● Inbound and outbound e-mails even if they are wiped off

● Messenger chats

● Chats and posts made on social networking sites

● Visited sites and bookmarks

● GPS location at every fixed intervals

● Viewed photos and videos

● Installed apps accessed such as memos and to-do list manager

Apart from its invisible functioning, another highlighting feature is its independent functionality. This means that it does not depend on the phone logs. Rather it saves all the activities by its own as soon as they take place. This is the reason why it can even track and log the deleted calls, SMSs, or e-mails.

Once the installed mobile spying app creates the logs of all the activities happened on the phone, it uploads them to a distant server on the Internet through an encrypted medium of transmission. Just after an hour of installation, these logs are made available to your online account that you had created on the app’s official site before downloading it. Usually, at regular intervals, the logs of latest activities are created as well as uploaded to the destined server.

In this way, you can monitor the employee activities using the mobile spy technology.

The kindle just got cheaper at $139

December 29, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Amazon just took the wraps off two new Kindle models: the “Kindle Wi-Fi” and “Kindle Free 3G+Wi-Fi”. The big news is price, at least for the Wi-Fi  Kindle model: $139.

As much as i wanted a kindle bad ,I could not and would not pay that much for a dedicated e-book reader. In my mind, the magic price point was $100 to $110. I suspected it would come down or close  to this price, and I’m delighted to see we’re almost there.

Amazon on Wednesday officially unveiled a next-generation Kindle that is what many tech pundits thought it would be: smaller and lighter, with a better screen and some Wi-Fi thrown into the mix.

“This is the future of book reading. It will be everywhere.” Michael Lewis, author of Moneyball and Liar’s Poker.

Kindle Wireless Reading Device, Wi-Fi, 6 Now $139

At $139, the Kindle Wi-Fi is Amazon’s most affordable e-book reader yet. But is it affordable enough?

I’m also glad Amazon finally realized that built-in 3G is overkill in a device like the Kindle. Between homes, offices, Maccas, and airports, Wi-Fi hot spots are just about everywhere. Downloading the occasional book doesn’t carry the same urgency as, say, checking e-mail or updating Twitter, so why pay extra for 3G? (You still can, of course: the “Free 3G+Wi-Fi” model sells for $189.

As i don’t own an iPad and iPhone ,I’d definitely grab the Kindle Wi-Fi for $139. It’s not $100 or $110 but it’s close enough.
