User-Generated Content Can Fly with Kyte

By Digital Trends Staff April 23, 2007

Got a great video clip you’ve just captured and you just have to broadcast it now? You might want to check out kyte.tv. The company reported today that its new offering will enable consumers to create their own interactive TV channels and make them accessible by mobile, PC, and eventually on television.

Users can take a picture or video with a camera phone and broadcast it to their kyte channel, or even create a show by using drag and drop tools—like incorporating polls, text, slideshows, and text—online. Once live, you can chat with your audience, interact through polls, or invite your friends to co-produce on your channel, the company says.

You should always be ready with a portable power station in case there's an electricity outage in your home, or if you suddenly find yourself on an outdoor adventure where outlets won't be readily available.

There are three ways to recharge the Marbero M82 Max -- plug it into a wall socket, connect it to your car's lighter outlet, or harness the power of the sun with the included 30W solar panel that comes with a built-in smart chip to prevent overloading.

This tiny robot vacuum can do more than some full-sized competitors

The K10+ Pro cleaning the floors near a sleeping dog.

SwitchBot might be best known for gadgets like the SwitchBot Curtain 3 and quirky SwitchBot Bot, but the company is quickly making a name for itself in the world of robot vacuums. Its catalog is growing a bit more enticing today, as the brand has officially revealed the SwitchBot Mini Robot Vacuum K10+ Pro -- an upgraded version of the existing Mini Robot Vacuum K10+. With enhanced suction and some cool new features, it packs in more functionality than many of its full-sized rivals.

The K10+ Pro retains the small size of its predecessor, clocking in with a diameter of just 248mm (compared to 340mm found on the SwitchBot S1 Plus) and a height of just 9.2cm. If your home has lots of chairs, furniture, and other obstacles, this footprint is more compelling than larger robot vacuums as it easily sneaks into tight areas.
