I’m continuing the Gift guide with gifts for guys and girls as well as fun tech stuff (You will see my gift ideas with the reasons why I recommend them). Only requirement, they have to be electronically available so that everyone has access (Regardless of geography )
TECH GIFTS for all the techies and early adopters in your life, these are the tech gadgets that I think are really good. Most of these more than for gifting, are my tech drool list of cool stuff that is coming out there
- Parrot skycontroller: Basically games for adults
- Samsung Gear VR :I am an avid Samsung phone user and this just looks really cool
- The new Apple TV: I have said multiple times in this blog how my Apple TV is the most important household tech item I have (maybe I’ll put the TV and fridge first, but its a close third!). Therefore a new version of it its always exciting. This one does not disappoint. I already purchased it and the voice control features are amazing.
- HERO4 Session: A go Pro but simpler!
- Dremel 3D Idea Builder + 5 Spindles: For the crazy people out there a household 3D printer
- Amazon Echo : I talked about this in Oprah’s favorite things and I just think its such a cool little gadget — because really, you always want to talk to your house
- DJI Phantom 3 Standard Drone another adult toy 🙂
- Livescribe 3 Smartpen + Livescribe Notebook: For those people like me who are half tech crazy and half old school with their moleskine notebooks in their nightstand, this is the gift! I like writing things in paper but its great that you keep a copy in your ipad.
- DxO ONE. It’s a professional-quality connected camera that pairs with the iPhone, for when the Iphone is too low tech and a professional camera is to heavy to lug around
- Fujifilm Instax Share Smartphone Printer SP-1: Because electronic pictures are cool, put there’s nothing like having printed pictures all around the house!

- The Gentleman’s Deck: Such a cute gift. I love the description of it, so much that I have to copy it because i could not agree more: A true gentleman knows how to tie a Windsor knot and savor a truly fine whiskey. He should always have a toast at the ready, a pithy quote handy and an ace up his sleeve. This deck of cards offers guidance on all of the above and more, with illustrations, quotes and quips, plus tips on everything from selecting the appropriate gift to (shudder) meeting the in-laws – all designed for perusal as he plays his card game of choice.
