Dick's Gadget Warehouse & How to Submit Your Viewer Video.


Alex Rearick sent us a Gadget Warehouse Video of a device that can be a What The Heck Is It? gadget. I happened to recognize what it is, but I asked Alex how he happened to find such an old gadget. Alex said that an old boss was getting rid of some stuff from a locker and found three of them and asked me if I wanted one. They were leftover equipment from before switching to electronic timekeeping devices. See if you knew what it was.

We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show, so here's what we're looking for! Your home shot video – 2 to 3 minutes long, in any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap: Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won't get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, "family friendly" language applies.
-
I invented this! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can't market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it's a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions. No professional ads please.
-
My Gadget Warehouse: Okay, so you don't have a warehouse. It doesn't matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you're still hanging on to it.
-
My Favorite Gadget (favorite old, or favorite new): Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be a new gadget you just bought too.
-
Post them on YouTube and send us the link! We'll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that's unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long! Low production value is fine, but we should be able to hear you and see you! If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you’ll earn a tiny amount of fame (hopefully). And if you live in the US, you'll also get an autographed 35-year-old Alfred E. Neuman picture. But no matter where you live, I can email an autographed to you Alfred E. Neuman photo. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it's a copy. We've tested it out and fans say they look terrific!

Letter of the week:
Hi Dick & Chad
I had, hopefully, a quick question. I have a friend who is trying to come up with the most affordable way to stream video & audio from one room, to another room, in the same building. They have internet, & WiFi, & need some type of wireless solution, with the capability to zoom. He would like to get a wireless camera, & be able to stream that to a TV in the other room. Also, since it will be live, he would like as little lag as possible, as these room will have large numbers of persons, & everyone, in each room, will need to be in sync. What equipment will he need, & what type of setup?
Thank you guys so much. Mo
