I really thought the Kindle Fire rage would die down after Christmas, but that tablet is still flying off the shelves! I wanted to show you another case option for the Kindle Fire, and this company is one of my favorites. Case-Mate makes protective and stylish cases for phones and tablets. They also have a huge line of accessories like speakers and headphones. This is the Venture Case for the Kindle Fire. My teenage daughter owns the Kindle Fire in our home, and [...]

The app is very user friendly with four categories on the main page. Diaper Check, Food, Play, and Medical. You [...]
My camera lens is constantly getting dirty. Last year, I purchased a Lenspen to help keep it clean and fingerprint free. While I was at CES I was thrilled to see Lenspen there, and was quite surprised at how many new products they were showcasing. The SideKick is the cool new cleaner for tablets and laptops. Besides the Original Lenspen, now there is a Lenspen for your camera filter and your camera viewfinder. Let’s take a look at the Sidekick [...]
Your never going to believe who was at CES. The Amazing Flameless Candle, that’s who! Don’t get me wrong, I lurve technology, but I am a DIY home decor girl at heart. (I love it so much, I have a whole ‘nother blog dedicated to it.) That’s why when they contacted me about trying out one of their LED candles, I could not resist. Look at how purdy it is! The Amazing Flameless Candle company has pillar candles, tealights, [...]
First, a disclaimer. I am an Apple girl. I have never ever used anything Android related in my whole life. I have had a very unhealthy relationship in the past with my iPad. Like, drooling on it while I am sleeping because I just can’t let go kind of relationship. I have always assumed learning a new operating system would be tedious and difficult. And I am lazy. Those two are not a good combination when it comes to trying new things. [...]

While at CES I was privileged to attend the Keynote address by Qualcomm and their CEO Paul Jacobs. The entire keynote was quite entertaining, and I loved every minute of it. Now being “Technology for Moms” there was definitely one part of the keynote that stood out to me. There is a small portion of the keynote at the top of this post. So, they are introducing Vuforia, by Qualcomm. This is a platform to be used for augmented reality. Many of [...]

Several weeks before going to CES,, I was bombarded by e-mails from companies showcasing products that would be unveiled at the show. One particular e-mail I received caught me off guard. It was from none other than the home improvement giant, Lowe’s. Lowe’s at the Consumer Electronic Show? What the what? As a DIY junkie myself, I just had to check this out. Lowe’s was at the show promoting something new called MyLowe’s. MyLowe’s in an integrated online experience that helps customers [...]
Hot off the press! Apple has just announced today that it will be re-inventing the way we make and publish books. It’s called iBooks Author, and it just brought education to a whole new level. iBooks Author is an app for your Mac computer or laptop that allows anyone to create beautiful Multi-Touch textbooks — and just about any other kind of book — for viewing on the iPad. Apple announced today that iBooks Author will include the option of adding galleries, video, interactive diagrams, [...]
I am so excited to share this important new app with everyone at Tech4Moms. We post a lot of fun and useful apps around here, but we don’t post often about safety. The MyGuardianAngel iPhone app was just released last month, and its purpose is to get you real-time help from your most trusted friends, family, and emergency contacts when you need it the most. The idea for the myGuardianAngel iPhone App was born from the far too many news [...]
I used to think a hashtag was a crocht ball that hipster boys kicked around in their bare feet. Apparently that’s a hacky sack. Did you know the 33rd anual World Hacky Sack Championship will be in Poland this year? I don’t know of any hashtag conventions, but you never know. I’ll keep you posted. Anywho, let’s get back on topic. A hashtag is just a way to tag a conversation. It’s mostly used in Twitter. If you see it in Facebook, chances [...]
It’s amazing to me the conveniences that can be found within an iOS application. Sure, there are apps that are just plain silly, where all they do is light a Zippo, or make grotesque noises, but when it comes to shopping, I love a good app that makes ordering products super fast and easy. MoPho: Prints and Products is an iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad application that sells quality photo products, all of it right inside of the app. The app [...]
