And if you’re looking for a way to make Valentine‚Äôs Day surprising, how about a fruit sticker? No really. It’s a Monday and this is a simple way to do something sweet. Remember being a kid and peeling the sticker off your banana and putting it on your forehead? No? Maybe that was my nerdy fascination. It’s the little things.

Regardless, if your loved one or children eat their daily fruit, these stickers are sure to make it a little more enjoyable. There are special ones for apples, pears, passion fruit, blueberries, oranges and bananas. Go to the site, download the PDF and use sticker paper. You’re golden.

Fashion week was all a buzz about Clarisonic’s beauty gadgets. As a faithful user of the Mia (the pink one that benefits breast cancer) I have to say, it’s not all hype. My dermatologist co-signed it. I have sensitive skin and in the six-weeks that I’ve been using it, I’ve seen results. My skin is softer and smoother. It’s gentle yet effective. Love it.

But I’ll have to take a late pass on Skin Care Pairs Clarisonic invites customers to mix and match, say the Opal with the Mia, for themselves. Or get two Mias and share one with a friend. You save money and they engrave for free. Get on it chic geeks, Clarisonic is catering to you.

HULU is now available for the iPhone, iPad and TV Viewing.

The talk of Hulu having a paid subscription have been at a fever pitch lately, and it looks like this is the reason why. For $10 buck a month you will be able to stream HD versions of the current seasons of shows such as Glee, Community, The Office and 30 Rock as well as the entire back library of many other.

The system will work over Wifi or 3g and it will work on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, and your TV. The service will be supported on Samsung, Vizio and Sony TVs and Blu-ray players, and will be supported on the PS3 “soon” and the Xbox 360 in “early 2011.”

The bad news, you will still have to sit through ads. Talk about double dipping!

We mentioned it last week, and now it looks like T-Mobile has come on out and made it official. What better than getting Dad something free on Father’s Day. Remember that there is a catch though, The offer is only available by switching to a family plan or adding another line to your existing family plans. T-Mobile may not have the best phone line-up, but they do have a few solid models like the HD2, MyTouch 3G Slide, and the Blackberry Curve that I am sure Dad (or you) would love.

BELLEVUE, Wash. – June 15, 2010 – To help celebrate dad, T-Mobile USA, Inc. today announces the mother of all Father’s Day offers: on Sat., June 19, for one day only, every phone in every T-Mobile store is free.* This first-of-its-kind promotion will “untie” families from giving dad the traditional, same-old gift, instead offering him something he craves – a new smartphone.

This Saturday, starting at 8 a.m., simply visit a T-Mobile retail store and switch to any family plan, or add a new line to an existing family plan, and walk out of the store with a new phone for every new line with a two-year agreement – customer’s choice – while supplies last.

Skateboarding is tough sport, and it requires even tougher equipment. Even still, there are plenty of kids that die a little bit, each time they break a skate deck. Seven Ply, like many skaters found it hard to part with the old decks, so they just decided to make cool rings out of them, lucky for you right?

Recycled skateboard rings are cut, sanded and sealed, resulting in chunky glossy wood rings that have a nice lived-in (or skated-on) appeal.

The start at $18 and they also come in 4 finger ring styles for those that want some 80s flavor.

We mentioned that Good ‘ole McDonoald’s would be offering free Wi-Fi at access at 11,500 of its 14,000 U.S. locations. Well that time is now. Actually, it started on January 15th. They used to charge $2.95 for 2 hours. Good way to get customers in the door. I can see this coming in handy if you need to hop on really quick and have some delicious frys in the process.

For example, T-Mobile retail stores in NYC are definitely offering this promotion, but stores in L.A. are not. However, some retail stores said they’re always willing to price match competitors and other T-Mobile locations. All you need is proof that other retail stores are offering this promotion because some stores haven’t heard of this, and that shouldn’t be too difficult.

I am pretty in love with Double Twist by DVD Jon. The program is the ultimate alternate to iTunes. Now only that, it syncs with practically ANY device. Half the reason iTunes is so huge is because everyone felt they had to get an iPod to get any sort of decent music management happening. Now it is about spreading the word.

With the inclusion of the Amazon music store, doubleTwist just raised its stock. Just the fact alone that Amazon’s music is often cheaper than iTunes is reason enough to switch. The DT interface is simplified version of¬† iTunes so the learning curve is almost non-existent. I would bet that after messing around in it for a minute or so, you would have a good grasp of how everything works.

As an added bonus, the latest release of DT supports the Nexus One Google Phone. The imaginary/next/vaporware/ phone of the moment.
