3 in 1 Ghostbusting Paranormal Tracking Instrument

by Jay Garrett on November 17, 2009

Paranormal ResearchIf you’ve seen the film ‘Paranormal Activity’ you will have noticed that having a video camera isn’t the only thing you really need.

Any budding ghost-hunters will need an array of scientific instruments in order to prove and find the gad-about ghosts.

Thankfully, the folk over at Scientifics Online have just the very thing.

This spectre-finder has the 3 most useful tools wrapped up in one handy device.

You get an EMF Meter, Ambient Temperature Gauge and a……. errrrrrrr…….. flashlight.

“Designed exclusively for paranormal investigators, this incredible tool has everything you need to track and detect the presence of ghosts.”

The aptly spooky green-lit screen will help would-be ghostbusters decide whether or not they’re soon to be slimed.

The EMF burst mode detects EMF movement rapidly, and the record feature allows you to capture minimum and maximum values from your adventures and investigations.

You could always team this up with your Vampire hunting kit :)

For those on a budget this undead-uncovering unit is available with or without a built-in red nightvision flashlight – $149 or $129 respectively.

I wonder if it could detect the ghost in a bottle?

Google Latitude Now on iPhone

by Jay Garrett on July 24, 2009

Jay Google LatitudeOk iPhone equipped stalkers!!

Google Latitude has finally arrived for the Apple handheld :)

All you have to do is head to m.google.com/latitude, let Google use your location and you’re sorted!

Your location will appear on a Google map within the browser, with Latitude appearing as a tab next to Gmail and GCal.

Add any friends that you want to share your every movement with by choosing from your Gmail contacts or typing in their email address and they’ll receive a link to the mobile site, where they can sign up themselves and view your location.

You can switch between map and satellite view and get directions. There’s even an option to view traffic.

Clicking a contact’s icon presents the option to send an email, get directions to the contact’s location, and change the precision of location information you’d like to share with the person.

The options are:

  • best available location
  • only city-level location
  • hide from this friend

Because it’s an opt-in service and you have to invite or approve anyone before they can see your location – so not so much on the stealthy stalkage then ;)

Thankfully you can also turn your location off at any time.

It would’ve been a handy thing to use at the Latitude Festival last week – hmm.. Latitude at Latitude!

Genius!

Although it all depends on your mobile signal and GPS – which was a bit on/off in Suffolk.
