Girl Tech

Ever since I was young, I have always loved technology. I especially love technology when it can help make me pretty, make my life easier, and save me money! (Who doesn't?!?!) Nerd alert!!!

Technology to Help Make You Pretty

I like to call this gadget a "Sonicare toothbrush for your face." Have you ever woken up in the morning after washing your face and find there is STILL makeup on your pillow? Are you unhappy with your uneven skin tone? Can you never get rid of the look of those pesky pores? This gadget is for you. My mom gave me the Clarisonic Mia for Christmas and I have been using it ever since. Since I have started using the Clarisonic, my skin feels softer and my pores are almost invisible. I like the Clarisonic Mia (the smaller, "travel" version of the brush) because it does not require a bulky charging dock that has to sit on your counter.

This website is exponentially useful. I read this site every day and always find something that makes my life easier! Lifehacker offers "tips and downloads for getting things done" ranging from roadmaps to achieving your goals to creating a multimedia Christmas light show. Lifehacker is always my go to site to learn about new, useful technology and web developments.

I found out about this site from one of my favorite blogs, The Hopkinson Report. Wired's Jim Hopkinson explores "marketing trends that matter" and recently interviewed Alexa Von Tobel, the founder and creator of LearnVest.com. (Listen to the podcast interview with Alexa here.) LearnVest.com is a website targeted at young women who have graduated college and are entering the working world. At LearnVest.com you can learn everything from how to get your own health insurance to how to check your credit score. The site is currently under construction to work with Apple's Safari browser but is up and running for Firefox and Internet Explorer.

  1. Thanks for letting me know about learnvest.com! I'm a new graduate myself, and I could use all help/advice I can get. Also I've been meaning to try to Clarisonic for some time now, yet I didn't want to spend the hefty price on something I wasn't sure worked. Now I can't wait for the purchase! Thanks again!
