Backpack Charger

I saw an ad in Popular Mechanics that featured a home made solar creation.  A solar panel backpack that could charge your iPod.  Now that is pretty cool!  All that stuff could be found at Radio Shack?


I'm looking into this now.  I love to be able to solar charge my iPod or iPhone.  Or depending on how powerful, what about a laptop?  


Has anyone built this themselves?


Changing the World

































I just received my SL2 solar light from SunNight Solar yesterday! I'm so psyched!  Now, I don't want to give a full review yet, I do want to say that I'm already very impressed.  For such little charging it puts out some amazing light.  Also, the little built in carabiner is a nice touch.  I can hang it on my backpack while I walk to work.  Don't worry, I'll post pics and maybe a vid about it soon.

Moving but staying clean

Our company just moved offices.  We were temporarily in Old Town Alexandria and we finally made the move into downtown DC.  Actually, just two of us remain at the old office.  Us two online content manager people.  


We need some fast internet to make sure the shows go smooth and that isn't ready yet at the new office.  But it should be soon.


I walk to work.  What will I do when I move?  We convinced them that instead of paying for a parking space in the garage we could get metro passes.  Gets our cars off the road?  Also saves money because the metro is cheaper than driving.


Still saving the world.
