Gifts for the Tech Loving Woman
I have a confession to make. I sleep with my smartphone. Yep, It has become such a big part of my life that I sleep with it plugged in and charging within arms length of my bed. So for Mother's Day, here is a list of tech toys that any Mom's would love for Mother's Day.
Google Voice allows you to setup a phone number in any area code, and when someone calls your Google Voice number, Google will ring your home, cell, and/or work numbers to find you. It also transcribes your voice messages to text and emails you the message. Google Voice is not only FREE but it also allows you to make outgoing phone calls from your smartphone using Google Voice Mobile that masks your real cell phone number and replaces it with your Google Voice phone number. HOLLA to the FREE!
Tune In Radio Pro Version 99 cents
With Tune In Radio, I am able to listen to my favorite radio stations on my smartphone, which I totally love. This app works great. I was able to get the Pro Version FREE in the Amazon Android App Store a few weeks ago. The Pro Version of Tune In Radio allows recording of the radio broadcast to your smartphone.
I love tulips and you can have some everyday for FREE - on your computer screen! Local Detroit photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard has a FREE computer wallpaper of tulips that is just perfect for Mother's Day. Beautiful yes?
Mobile version FREE for 14 days, then $24 a year
I am really bad with remembering where I put my TO DO list. So with the app Remember the Milk, I now have my TO DO List with me everywhere - because the list is kept in the cloud. I can access and update the list on my PC and with the mobile version of Remember the Milk, I can access and update the list on my smartphone. The feature I like best is that with the mobile version, I can speak my list instead of having to input it using the keypad.
How about giving that special lady a FREE digital subscription to "Parenting School Years" Magazine? Yes, the magazine will come right to her computer which saves time and paper. And we won't tell her that the subscription was FREE :)
Retails for $59.95, sells for less than $45 on Amazon.com
Is your mom still trying to hold on to her cell phone while driving even though she knows it's dangerous? Then stop now and go buy her a SuperTooth Buddy. This hands free car kit with the funny name is going to help her to talk on her cell phone hands free and make the experience much safer for herself and everyone else on the road.
Amazon.com has come up with a special Kindle that is $25 cheaper than the regular Kindle because it has a special screen saver that runs advertisements. So if you are in the market for a Kindle for that special lady, this special Kindle could be a way to get it and save some money.
Less than $130 on Amazon.com
Back in March, I was loaned a Panasonic FH5 Camera for review. I already own a Panasonic Lumix ZS5 and it is the camera that I use for all the photos that I take for this blog.
The Panasonic Lumix line of cameras all take some fabulous photos. I bought my ZS5 because of the fantastic photo quality, the 12x optical zoom and the simple to use interface. The Panasonic FH5 also takes gorgeous photos and has a simple to use interface like my ZS5. But the FH5 is also a very small camera that can easily fit into your pants or shirt pocket which means this camera can be with you at all times and ready to take photos at a moments notice.
The FH5 only has 4x optical zoom, but for the price, this a great camera with great features. And Amazon.com is selling the Panasonic FH5 for less than $130 in a very beautiful gold color that would be perfect for Mom.
Enjoy!
