Some of you will just be old enough to remember the original Polaroid camera. Remember how we all marvelled at the fact it could print pictures instantly? For younger readers, this was in pre-digital days and the Polaroid was a true miracle, because the only other way to get your pics developed was to rush down to Boots for ‘express printing’. At best, you might get them back the next day!
So, welcome to 2010 and my latest gadget, courtesy of Maplins. If you’ve got a mobile phone with Bluetooth and it can take photos – and you’ve got 30 quid to spare, this will be the coolest piece of kit this year.
It’s called a PoGo and it’s about the size of an iPhone (but a bit thicker). You take the photo on your mobile. Hit the button on your phone and it prints out the 3×2 picture in about 60 seconds. The photos have a peelable sticky back too, so you can stick it anywhere (stop titteirng at the back!). It will even run on the rechargeable battery – so it’s truly portable.
Genius!!!!!

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
