Personally, I think the LiveScribe Smart Pen is the coolest gadget this year.

The Pulse™ smartpen is essentially computer in a pen that records everything you hear and links it to what you write.  You can earsily playback the recorded audio by tapping on your notes, or upload the notes and audio to a computer for future search.

I wish I had this when I was in college.  It’s a great gift to give to anyone who’s in school, or whose profession requires a lot of writing (doctors, journalists, etc.)

You can buy it directly from the Livescribe website.  They’re also available from Amazon or Target.  One thing to note is that you do need to purchase special paper under the Livescribe brand for the pen to function the way it’s supposed to.

Attention, Shoegals!  You can help someone out by buying more shoes!!!

For every pair purchased, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need. One for One.  Beginning in 2006, they’ve already given 10,000 pairs of shoes to children in Argentina and 50,000 pairs in South Africa.  Their goal for 2008 is 200,000 pairs for children in need around the world.

You can get involved just by joining their mailing list.  If interested you can also apply to join the Shoe Drop tour in the US or Argentina.

I haven’t worn a watch for ages, but I have to say these watches have everything I love – crystal bezel, mother-of-pearl dial, vibrant color, water resistance …… And best of all, the acrylic, rubber or plasteramic bands make them perfect for everyday wear.  Somehow they strike a chord in the part of me that never wants to grow up. Can I have one for Christmas, please?
