Cutest nightlight ever

Chris McGinn posted a blog on Digital Landing about nightlights that help you go green.

We are entering the “fear of the dark” stage at our house. Four years no fear but all of a sudden my little boy won’t walk down the hall with dark rooms or go to sleep without a nightlight.

We bought a couple of LED nightlights at a local home improvement store last weekend. They cost pennies a year to operate and are “greener” than traditional lights b/c of the LED bulbs.

But today I came across this at Goody Blog–Sylvania’s PalPODzzz Portable Nightlight It is a nightlight and a flashlight. It’s also good as a safety light in case the power goes out. There is a ladybug and a rocket ship design. Retail $19.99.

Easy Bloom cures your black thumb

Chris McGinn posted a blog on Digital Landing. Read about the new device that tells you what your plants' needs are.

I was flipping channels today when I saw the Easy Bloom on a talk show. If you have trouble keeping plants alive in your home or yard, this could be your solution.

Basically it is a sensor ( a really cute sensor that looks like a plastic flower) that you place in the yard where you want to grow a plant or in your home where you want to set a plant and it evaluates environmental features such as sunlight, water, soil moisture, and humidity. It then recommends plants that would thrive in your specific micro-climate. It can even help if you already have an ailing plant by giving you help diagnosing what is wrong with it. Learn more about how it works here.

I seriously need one of these. I can only grow things like cacti and ivy that are almost impossible to kill.

They sell for $59.95 and are available via Amazon and other online retailers.
