Now and then, we like to mix things up a bit and deviate slightly from the cheap and tiny definition. Well, it’s not that much of a deviation if you really think about it from another perspective. Next to an elephant, a hard drive might be considered tiny. Heck, stick a pre-gastric bypass Star Jones [...]
Here’s some news for you, friend; just because your mom doesn’t say you’re fat doesn’t mean you aren’t. Being big boned is a myth too. That’s what I had to come to grips with after I finally developed common sense and realized that being called pleasantly plump was just a euphemism for fat ass.
You don’t [...]
We here at Cheap and Tiny love inexpensive, tiny gadgets. We also love fitness? Why? Is it because we think that obesity is a serious issue that must be addressed? Is it because we think that heart attacks, diabetes, and high-blood pressure are widespread health threats? Do we want to sell you another affordable portable [...]
The term “gamer” seems to have become the official-unofficial buzzword of the past few years. After Microsoft jumped into the gaming fray, proving once and for all that you can’t spell “fundamentally flawed operating system” without “fun”, the world sat up and took notice, primarily because it was about as engaging as watching a walleyed [...]
I have no idea why they insisted on tacking the “real-time” label on this webcam, but frankly, I’m way too enamored with the unit’s price to care. I mean, $21.99 for a Philips Real-time PC Webcam? That’s pretty freakin’ sweet. Sorry, was that sales pitch a little too obvious? Yeah, I guess it was. Even [...]
Just when you thought one was all we were going to get, Lady Fate spits another in our direction and fails to tell us to avoid stepping on the glob. No Golden Retrievers here; the ACECAD CAM-P-B300 PetC@m Webcam is instead shaped like a Beagle. We like Beagles, almost as much as a tall pitcher [...]
We like stuffed animals, maybe a little too much, but we’ll never admit that. We also like electronic gadgets, so it’s only natural that we went completely ga-ga over the ACECAD CAM-P-A300 PetC@m Webcam when we stumbled across it.
If you’re as Internet-savvy as we are (MySpace account? Check. Forum avatar? Check. Overwhelming sense to give [...]
Know what’s better than taking your bike out into the wilderness? Not getting eaten by a bear, that’s what! And what better way is there to avoid being a half-chewed carcass on some hibernating mammal’s feces-splattered hideaway than by bringing along a GPS with you on your ride.
But until The Bomb hits and our offspring [...]
Ah, my very first iPod: a simple 512MB iPod Shuffle. Yeah, yeah, I’m cheap and just a bit behind the curve. Truthfully, I didn’t want to spend all that much, and I didn’t really need to be carrying more than 120 songs around with me at all times. (In fact, my morning commute to work [...]
It’s all about digital photography these days. Megapixel this, CCD that. I say screw that and return to the pleasantly archaic world of film, where everything is clearer and more vivid if a whole lot more messy. Remember when showing off your photo collection didn’t involve crowding around a computer screen? We weep for traditionalism! [...]
