Not too long ago I picked up the Targus 15.4 Corporate Traveler Laptop Case. Before, I was not even using any kind of laptop case like this one. When I go traveling to anywhere, I would want to store my laptop in a safe place where it’s not going to break in any way.

Of course you can buy a case specifically for your laptop, but it’s always nice to be able to carry around a bit more.

This laptop case, made by Targus, which in my mind, is a great company when it comes to notebook accessories, has done an excellent job at designing this case. There is so much room in this case, that you’ll be able to fit a variety of stuff in this laptop case easily and with still being organized.

The Targus 15.4 Corporate Traveler Laptop Case features so many pockets to unzip, pull out, or even detach from the velcro on the case. It comes with a sleeve to put your laptop in before you put it in the bag, two pouches to go in the bag, lots of storage for folders, binders, or anything you may need, a variety of side pockets, and even cushion to make sure your laptop has a nice ride.

You can watch the full video review from right below.

Creepy? (image borrowed from a YouTube video)

It’s not very often when we blog about something like this, in fact, it has never been done before. Not too long ago, I saw a tweet from @thecreativeone (David Di Franco), and he mentioned a really funny YouTube video.

I personally really laugh at this kind of stuff. And to my surprise, I even showed my mother one of these videos. To have my mother laugh in front of my is a huge success; it can be quite hard to get your parents to laugh.

So you might be wondering, what exactly is this? Basically, it’s quite a bit of pictures of videos put together and different YouTubers recording theirs self to turn it into this video.

What really makes this interesting is the level of editing. The mouth and eyes on every talking fruit is just amazing. This is some intense work done by someone who obviously knows what they’re doing.

You might ask, so how’s it funny? You can watch the video below to figure that out. This is just pure clean fun to watch; no harsh language, characters (they’re fruit!), or even people. It’s for sure something your parents, grandparents, friends, family, and even children will laugh at.

You might even say, “why are you even blogging about this, Taylor?” You know what, it’s time for us to do some things a little bit different and maybe… just maybe, get in a few laughs also. So just go check these guys on YouTube out. It’s some great video editing and such well put together skits.

Out of all things, it’s of course different than Windows Explorer. The Explorer is very complex compared to Finder.

In the video below, I review the details about Finder and why I like it or not. It’s a very nice way to find your files, but nothing is ever perfect.

Finder is for sure very easy to use for anyone, even if they used to use Windows full time.

The Finder has some similarities to the GNOME desktop interface, which is used in many Linux distros.

Every time when Google releases a new product, service, or anything else, we know it’s going to be a quality product because it is coming from a company who has a great name. In today’s world of search engines, people strive on having the latest and greatest search results; one of the ways to accomplish this vigorous task is to make it so that all of your search results are live and in real time.

Some services like Collecta provide these types of services. The only problem I see with these types of searches is that they’re not going to be very mobile friendly; I mean, they are really not going to be suited for phones, PDA’s, smartphones, and everything else in the mobile world.

Today, Google posted a video onto their YouTube account showing the world about their real time search. With their real time search, they seem to be focusing on social mini-blogging networks like Twitter. The only problem I see with that is that if they’re only getting their real time searches from Twitter, what’s the point? I honestly do not want to see Twitter statuses; I want to see blog posts, news articles, and things in that respect. Twitter would be nice to have in their, but so many people are tweeting every second! The results would be tremendous if Google tried to download all of this, especially if it’s a popular #hash.

Google says that they’ll be releasing this new feature to Google within the next few days. I would personally like to see this feature expanded upon in the aspects of getting the latest news without using social mini-blogging networks like Twitter.

What are your thoughts on Google finally making their search a little ahead in the future? For me, I do think it will pay off in time; we will just have to wait and see.

My point is, there has to be some way to make organization on your desktop a lot easier than what the standard is today. You know what, there is! A company called Bump Technologies has created a software to achieve this; BumpTop, which turns your boring ol’ desktop into a futuristic one with 3D effects and even piles!

You might ask, how can this help me out? That’s very simple. A desktop that allows you to pile certain items together really does help mainly because it saves a lot of space and it’s very easy to find things. But that’s not all what BumpTop can do, there’s more.

BumpTop also has the ability to upload your photos to Facebook and even Twitter (using TwitPic). Right from your desktop, you’re able to connect and share photos all from the convenience of your desktop. With BumpTop’s 3D interface, you can also view photos, shove things in the corner with real-world physics, add photo frames, and even skinning ability!

And so one kind of information space that I kind of take inspiration from is my real desk. It’s so much more subtle, so much much more kind of visceral. And I’d like to kind of bring that experience to the desktop. -Anand Agarawala

I couldn’t of said it any better myself. BumpTop is something that you really cannot describe in words; it’s something you need to see for yourself. Because of that, I have a video review for you below.

Before you watch the video, I have to give a hand out to Anand for providing me with a BumpTop Pro serial to review all of the features BumpTop has to offer. BumpTop is truly a remarkable program – it will revolutionize the way we use our desktops. When you first download BumpTop, you don’t think to yourself, “how does this work”? Instead, BumpTop takes on the physics used in real life. You can throw things around, bump things into each other, watch piles collapse (my favorite thing to do), and even post a tweet all from your desktop. I’ve tested BumpTop in the very early stages when it first was noticed, and it’s still the same thing I remember, but with a tad bit more features.

BumpTop provides you with a breathtaking user interaface and with so many splendid animations; you will want to boot up your computer in the morning first thing; maybe even making you use your mouse or even your screen a bit more than you used to! BumpTop is also thinking about a Mac and Linux version (look at the bottom of their download page).

You can download or even purchase the pro version of BumpTop here:

I’ve always been a fan of HP until now. HP customer support has really blown me away this time. A lot of their products work nicely, but some of them, like mine, do have some issues. Below, I have a video about me discussing HP’s customer support.

Support with every company really does vary. But with HP, it’s totally different. I have this in a video mainly for the fact that if I was to type all of the things I said in the video, most of you wouldn’t want to read it.

The things is, Google Chrome is just plain fast. Okay, it’s not fast, it’s lightning! Chrome is one of the faster browsers I have ever used. But there’s one reason why; it doesn’t naively support plugins yet. In Firefox, plugins really make Firefox slower than a clean install, but you know what, it’s worth it. I love what Google has done in the past year, and I will keep Chrome installed on my computer for as long as I can. It’s really a web browser you need to switch to; and especially if you’re using Internet Explorer.

I’ve been using Windows 7 since the early days. Once Microsoft released the release candidate (RC) version, it really opened up a lot of new features to Windows. I personally think Windows 7 is one of the best Windows operating systems ever created. Windows 7 comes with a new taskbar, faster and easier way of managing your “windows” (hence why Microsoft called it Windows in the first place), and just a variety of features that make Windows more elegant and easier to use. Here’s a video discussing why I like Windows 7.

I’ve been uploading videos on YouTube for quite a while now. The only thing I really need to make my videos better, is to make them better sounding. The audio quality in a lot of my videos didn’t sound that great. Well, all of that is going to change with the Blue Snowflake Unboxing. Also, I’m planning on having weekly podcasts on Tech Cores too! This brand new microphone will help a lot. A video after the break.

Here’s a video showing you all the features of the YP-P3:

It’s just amazing on how technology is. If they addedd multi-touch and WIFI, this device would kill the iPod Touch. Would it?
