Tech Gifts

and 21st Century Greeting Cards

Holidays are certainly a time when we embrace and celebrate tradition. But there’s no reason that you can’t incorporate a little bit of the future into the season. In the November edition of The Download, we suggest some cool holiday gifts for adults and kids. We also look at some options for personalizing, ordering, and even sending out your greeting cards using the Internet.

 
           
 

It’s that time of year again – max out the credit card, work all year to pay it off, just in time to do it all over again next year. Gotta love the holidays. At least we can help you save some cash and avoid the insanity at your local Sharper Image, so here are a few affordable ideas for the tech-savvy person on your list:

 
 

Toasty Toes

Creative 1GB mp3 Player

Solar ipod and Cell Phone Charger

 

Laptop Bed Desk

Keychain Digital Photo Viewer

Every Audio Shower Mirror

     
   
 
           
 

Remember when Tinker Toys and Tonka trucks were the coolest thing around? We don’t, either. These days, if it doesn’t have splashy graphics and a controller, it hardly qualifies as a toy in a kid’s mind. But here’s a few other options for your high-tech offspring (and one super hot video game … we couldn’t resist!)

 
 

iPod Pillow

Jousting Knights 

Clickstart First Computer from LeapFrog

 

 

Rock Band Video Game

Digital Arts and Crafts Studio

Interactive Surfboard

 
             
 

Still going to the drugstore to buy a box of those generic “winter scene” greeting cards? Bah Humbug! With the Web sites below, you can customize this holiday card tradition, incorporating family photos with festive graphics and colorful text. You have the option of designing and printing your own creation so you can snail mail them, they’ll mail them for you or, if you’re really crunched for time and money, choose the FREE e-mail option.
