Great Earbuds for Travelers


Music is an essential part of every traveler’s life. It gets you by on those long days in buses or airplanes, and helps drown out the noise of annoying people snoring in your hostel. If you’re like me, however, you probably go through ear buds more often than you’d like – and this can get pricey. It’s hard to find a product that includes the proper balance of good sound, the right fit and a design built to last without really breaking the bank in the process. Zipbuds Pro Mic earbuds offer all of this, and then some.


They come with an inline noise canceling microphone that allows users to take calls hands-free at any time and place without being affected by any type of ambient noise. Additionally, Pro Mics come with a wireless remote giving users full control over their music.

One of my absolute favorite features of the Zipbud Pro Mics is the never tangle cord with a zipper which is something Zipbuds actually patented themselves. I don’t know why every headphone doesn’t do this. Tangled cords are a huge annoyance and a big cause for the wires shorting out so frequently in your average earbuds. For extra durability, the cable also comes with a rubberized coating and chromed aluminum accents to help prevent fraying.


So, what about the sound? This is, afterall, probably the most important selling point of any music listening device. The Pro Mics come with high end 11mm audio drivers which deliver a premium level sound for a not so premium level price. You’ll get clear, rich sounding highs and nice, deep lows. The buds themselves are designed with comfort in mind and are slightly angled which positions the sound drivers at an optimal angle in your ear to deliver the best sound without sacrificing comfort. They come with 3 different sized tips to make sure something fits inside your ear perfectly.


Pro Mics are compatible with any major smartphone platform (Android, iPhone and Windows) and come in either black or electric yellow for a meager price $39.99.


Lastly, if you somehow do find a way to destroy these earbuds, Zipbuds will send you a coupon for 50% off your next pair!

#TouchFREE tech is here, serving those with #disabilities looking for a solution like this one. - http://clapway.com/2015/08/13/sesame-enable-touch-free-technology-is-here-somehow-353/

It feels like yesterday flip phones having one camera and your favorite song as a ringtone were the must-have gadgets. But in only 10 years, technology has progressed from manual handheld cellular devices to the world’s very first Touch FREE cellular device.


Who are Sesame Enable?


Sesame Enable was created to assist individuals suffering from illnesses such as ALS, paralysis, MS, and Parkinsons that prevent mobility/operating high-tech devices. The invention came to life after Co-Founder & CEO, Oded Ben Dov was given the idea from his Co-Founder, Giora Livine. Livine has lived quadriplegic for nine years after a spinal cord injury.


A Touch-Free Video Game


After discovering a video game invented by Ben Dov, Livine contacted Ben Dov and asked him to build him a smartphone that possess the same features. The game enabled its players to navigate through the game by simply motioning their head.


According to the Sesame Enable website, “The Sesame phone works by tracking the user’s head movements using the built-in, front-facing camera on the phone. . . The on-screen cursor is controlled by the position and movements of a user’s head, and supports even minimal movements.” Individuals who are physically challenged have the ability to check e-mails, play games and browse the web without lifting a finger.


Ben Dov was Down on his Luck and Indiegogo Answered


The irony of this occurrence is Ben Dov’s difficulty with finances upon the creation of his device. Oded Ben Dov struggled during the early stages of his project trying to fund it. His goal was to raise $30,000 and after coming across crowdfunding, Ben Dov has managed to receive $50,276 to support the cause. Indiegogo.com is the largest global fundraising site in the world and also the crowdfunding site Ben Dov decided to use. In addition to Ben Dov and his team’s accomplishments on, under the name Sesame Enable, they won first place in Verizon’s powerful answers contest.


Where to find Sesame Enable Touch-FREE Devices?


The device is not yet available in stores for in the U.S. however, it can be ordered through the Sesame Enable website. “About 2 million people in the U.S. could benefit from such a device,” said Ben Dov, “”Smarter devices that can be activated by voice, vision or slight movement have the potential of transforming many lives, increasing independence, access and communication.”
