Imagine never having to purchase another notebook. Rocketbook can hook you up. This notebook has 42 sheets of a special type of paper that allows you to jot down ideas using any Pilot FriXion pen on seven different page styles. The seven styles are Planning, Listing, Goal Setting, Note-taking, Sketching, and Sharing Big Ideas.

The Rocketbook has several notable features. For starters, your ideas are smear-proof just 15 seconds after writing. Once you’ve completed writing, the pages can be easily scanned into the Rocketbook app on your smartphone. The free app (iOS, Android) uses a special, handwriting recognition technology (known as OCR) that can give you full page-transcriptions via email, allow you to search your handwriting inside the app, and use your handwritten text as the filename.

The app also features a shortcut system to scan and send PDFs or JPEGS to specific locations in Google Drive, Dropbox, Trello, Evernote, Box, OneDrive, OneNote, Slack, iMessage, iCloud, and email. Once you are done with any particular entries, just wipe off the pages with the included cloth and you are ready for the next wave of great ideas.

Amazon continues to excel in connection and convenience with its latest Echo Show. The Show 5 is much more than a glorified digital photo frame.

Also, controlling compatible cameras is possible using the interactive display, your voice, or your motion.

The Show 5 can even keep you secure by allowing you to look in when you’re away. As long as you have a WiFi connection, you can easily access the camera view from the Alexa app (iOS, Android) and discreetly check in on pets, kids, babysitter, etc.

For those on your shopping list who have old 35mm films or slides and want to transfer them to digital format, Kodak has created the Mobile Film Scanner.

The photos can then be imported into the app for editing.

Even though having your photos professionally duplicated can give you better quality, it can be pricey. The Mobile Photo Scanner is an inexpensive and quick way to convert your photo memories so they are readily available and updated for today’s technology.

There’s nothing worse than dropping your phone and breaking it. PopSockets has a reputation for creating products with a secure grip. The patented design allows you to hold onto your phone so it doesn’t tumble out of your hands accidentally. But it can be virtually impossible to charge your phone wirelessly with the standard variety. The PopGrip works with your MagSafe cases and uses powerful magnets that easily attach to the back of your phone, and also makes for easy removal so you can charge it.

The signature stand that pops out is still there, so you can pull it out and prop your phone anywhere. Feel free to customize as well. They come in a wide variety of styles and colors.

Getting your phone into just the right position for a good photo can be difficult at times. Kenu helps out with the Stance, a portable tripod that’s smaller than a pack of gum. So portable that it comes with an attached keyring for transport. The Stance is perfect for the shutterbug on the go who wants to take shots beyond selfies, such as group photos and action shots.

Holding your phone is a micromount that is made of an amorphous thermoplastic called Grilamid that plugs right into your charge port. The Stance’s premium zinc-alloy construction and non-slip feet create a stable base. The Stance comes in both an Apple and Android variety and even has a convenient bottle opener–just because.
