Gadgettes 138: The Type A Episode
If it's not a right angle, it's a wrong angle. That's exactly the ethos that has inspired the type of precise, structured and rigidly useful gadgetry that we highlight in today's episode.

Dear Molly, Kelly, and Jason,
I use to listen Gadgettes a while back, but I stopped because the show was kind of dull and my time was dwindling. However, I just listened to the episode #137 and it was hilarious (the bit about the watches had me cracking up). The show has improved a lot! I just wanted to say it was a great episode and I’m looking forward to the next one!

You can now close the gender gap segment, as I have found (via your friends and Hammacher Schlemmer) the ULTIMATE gender gap gadgette.
The question is: How many of the 1701 made will end up in parent’s basements?
Keep on gadgetting;

Molly Wood gets her
gadget on as part of the Gadgettes duo in addition to her duties on
Buzz Out Loud and the Buzz Report. Favorite gadgets include TiVo, Treo,
and the Logitech Harmony 880. 
Kelly Morrison has
been at CNET since 1996 as a features editor
for CNET Download.com. In addition to moonlighting as a gadgette, Kelly
is Director of Content Development for CNET. 
Jason Howell takes
time from producing podcasts for CNET to bark (and sometimes sing)
unintelligable nonsense as an honorary Gadgette. 
Thanks

Also a pink Oiuja board, really? So regular ones make girls grow up more interesting? Like Goth? Or Geeky? Better than vapid with no depth. Sheesh. way to ruin things, giving pink a bad name ...mutter...mutter....
Also- we need to build a Gadgettes clock, come up with an idea and I'll build it.

- Regarding the recipe organization, I have tried Evernote with OCR recognition to create a recipe database with tags, etc. I think it could work, but it's a little too much of a project for me. I also heard about the beta launch of http://www.food.com which looks promising for recipe management. Once again, not quite motivated to figure it all out though...
