    Hot In The Hive: Wafer dermaSHOT iPod Shuffle Case

    Whenever you buy a new piece of technology whether it's a phone or a laptop, you always have to add a protective case to it as well. I mean, you'll never know when you might slip on a banana peel and lose your precious data! An iPod definitely tops my list for gadgets that need extra protection. I've got over 10,000 songs in my iPod and I know it'll take lots of time to recover all the music if I ever lose it. An iPod Shuffle may only hold about 1,000 songs, but that doesn't it shouldn't get a case too! And don't even think about sticking it in some plain and boring silicone case that everyone else has. That's where the WAFER dermaSHOT iPod Shuffle comes in! At less than $15, the tasty looking silicone cases come in three colors (chocolate, vanilla and strawberry, anyone?) and provide shock resistance. Wear it to the gym and I guarantee everyone will be drooling over it!


    Price: $13.99

    Hot In The Hive: iPhone App Coasters

    Those of the slightly younger set may not know this, but before the iPod and Mac laptops, Apple was on the brink of being obsolete. They were associated with the huge, loud computers in the school library that you could only do research on or else the librarian would throw her glasses at you. The iPod is maybe the greatest comeback product in history. It not only brought Apple back from the brink, but ricocheted them to number one in technological gadgets. Now you'd be hard pressed to find someone who doesn't have at least one Apple product laying around the house. I've had an a few of the iPod variation, but I'm actually lusting over the iPhone. Well, those at Apple must have felt bad for people like me who would love to jump on the iPhone band-wagon but, for whatever reason, have not. There are now iPhone app coasters that I can also put on my table, and for the fraction of the price! These coasters come in a set of 16 "apps" and are made of MDF plywood wrapped in a vinyl and varnish. A rubber back keeps it from moving around and they're washable and reusable! Ok, so they don't actually allow you to pull up the weather in Tunisia or give you a recipe for "Easy Chicken Bake" with just a click of a button, but they are awesome and fun! At $60 for the entire set, these make a great gift for the i-Aficionado or for those like me who just want to rub elbows with this elite i-Group!


    Price: $60.00 for set of 16

    Hot In The Hive: MobiGrip Device Leash

    If you've ever had to replace a waterlogged cell phone (or two) due to an unplanned dip in the toilet, this handy little invention has your name written all over it! The MobiGrip device leash, a stick-on mini-bungee that loops comfortably around your digits, is the cure to all butter finger-inflicted disasters that leave your poor dropped phone either cracked on the sidewalk or slowly fizzling out in a puddle of water. You just peel and stick the little button to the back of your cell, PDA, iPod, digital camera, or other accident-prone handheld and it's safe, sound, and secure in your palm no matter how klutzy you are or sweaty your palms get. You could even use the springy loop to clip your valuables to your belt or to your handbag's wallet clip for extra mishap prevention! As long as you're not careless enough to go for a swim with your gadget still looped to you, you may find yourself sticking with the same unharmed cell phone for a record duration of time!


    Price: $9.95 each, with discounts if you buy 6 or more

    Hot In The Hive: Numark iDJ2

    One of my favorite music documentaries is Scratch, which delves into the background of the hip-hop DJ and turntablism. From clips of the famous 1984 Grammy Awards with Herbie Hancock & Grand Mixer DXT performance of "Rockit" to interviews with modern day DJ legends, Scratch covered it all. The most impressive part was seeing all the DJs show off their skills at the turntables. While definitely inspiring, I certainly don't have the space or money for a set of turntables and stacks of records. Thank goodness modern technology is here to the rescue! The Numark iDJ2 is the first mixing station that enables you to play two tracks simultaneously from the same iPod. Use the two large wheels to scratch without harming a single vinyl and even record your own demos. Who knows, you may go from DJing your friends' parties to hitting the big time one day. This is also a great gift idea for your musically inclined dad for Father's Day!


    Price: $474.95

    The Summer "It" Accessory: An Everything-Proof iPod Speaker Case

    Hanging out by the beach/lake/pool sans tune-age is no fun, but neither is accidentally drowning your hapless iPod. Sure, there are protective iPod cases, and there are hardly waterproof portable speaker systems, but going with just one or the other is bound to leave your tunes either safely covered but too quiet to liven up a pool party, or a disaster waiting to happen once the splashes start up. Instead, pack this clever water-/spill-/shatter-proof "Ego Ice" iPod Sound Case which also floats! This handy contraption fits the iPod Classic, iPod Photo, iPod Video & all iPod Nanos. Grab one for yourself in preparation for summer at Otterbox.com. For more fashionably techie finds, make sure to click on over to Fashiontribes!

    I love my mother and I love her style, but she is surprisingly hard to shop for and with Mother's Day fast approaching, I'm looking to send her something besides the same flowers as the previous year, or a last-minute card. I could always give her cash, which she loves, but of course I want something a little more personalized and memorable. The thing is, my mom is still a stylish and hip woman who, although loves anything I get her, will not really like wearing a "World's #1 Mom" sweatshirt. I'm looking for something chic and fashionable and something that she'll want to use and not just store away after May 10th. This Mother's Day, check out these featured items and see her eyes light up with true surprise and let her be the envy of all the other mothers at brunch! Anything from Swarovski studded earphones for her gym time, crocodile leather checkbook cover to patent leather, stylish diaper bags for the new mom, you're sure to find something different for your mother that she'll be happy to use every day of the year!
