While the top tech blogs on the web today already feature all sorts of cool and sometimes weird gadgets, many of these major tech news outlets tend to focus too much on what’s “hot” and not necessarily what’s just plain awesome – whether it’s popular or not.
And frankly that presents a problem for geeks everywhere, because it means that a great deal of truly unique, cool, and weird gadgets never get the mainstream attention they deserve.
