Congrats Sony, You Have a Winner with the NEX-5 Digital Camera
At CES 2011, I was introduced to a fantastic digital camera made by Sony. It’s the NEX-5 and while it is not exactly a Digital SLR camera (I did mistakenly call it that in my video below), it is perhaps the smallest digital camera that has a detachable and interchangeable lens. I have used a […]
HighTechDad’s 2010 Gadget Roundup & Gift Guide
Better late than never I guess! Over the past year, I have tested out and reviewed a variety of gadgets and consumer electronic devices. Most of these were hand-picked for review purposes in that they are devices that, to me, looked really interesting and intriguing. Given that there are only a few days left for […]

Well, the last episode had some gremlins doing a number with CC’s voice.

Hey Brands & PR Agencies – Dads are Different than Moms!
When I started blogging about 5 years ago, I had no idea what direction it would take me, nor what type of success or lack there of it would have. I must admit, I’m pleasantly surprised at the result thus far. But it wasn’t easy. Having a full time job and having a full time […]
The Portable HD Video Recorder Smackdown (PART 2): Sony Bloggie vs Kodak Zi8
Last year around this time, I posted a head-to-head review between the Flip Ultra HD and the Kodak Zi8. Little did I know that it would become such a popular video on YouTube (it currently has over 94,000 views!). So, given that success and because of several comments to me on that video, I have […]

My wife now has a digital companion as she puts on her make-up or gets ready for the day in the bathroom. Carefully positioned on her makeup table is a small, digital screen that looks like a clock radio. But it is much more than that! The Sony Dash, formerly known as the “Chumby” is […]
WINNER: Win a Taylor Swift Laser Engraved Sony Cyber-shot TX7 Bundle!
My 3 elementary school girls LOVE Taylor Swift. When I told them that I had a Cyber-shot TX7 camera that is laser engraved with Taylor Swift’s signature and that I was going to give it away, BOY did I get a lot of grief. So, I told them that I would embark on a campaign […]

This episode of the “Cast of Dads” podcast was something near and dear to my heart…GADGETS!

Jeff Sass provided some great insight having just gotten back from CES (I covered the show remotely) but we all […]
CES Coverage Remote #2: Press Day Thoughts & Day 2 News [Update #1]
[Updated: 01.07.10 @1:05 pm Pacific] While it is obviously not the same as being at the International Consumer Electronic Show (CES) 2010, I was able to watch quite a few of the press events over the web (probably with a better seat than most of the people attending the events in person). Also, the flood […]
Buzz! Quiz World for PS3 Gets Your Brain Buzzing with Trivia
When my wife and I first met, there was a computer game that we played with our friends called “You Don’t Know Jack” (YDKJ) which has got to be one of the most fun games I have ever played. Ok, I admit it, I played it a lot more than she did. I spent hours […]
World Premiere: “Cast of Dads” Podcast – Episode #1
I have always wanted to do a podcast but never had the time, energy nor team to do so. Obviously, there is plenty of content to talk about though.
