The XBIZ Weekly Tech Watch

This week's Tech Watch brings word of new ways for adult industry professionals to keep track of their favorite Internet radio shows, protect their websites and download torrent content.

• For adult webmasters who are also Internet radio buffs, ChiliRec.com is the TiVo of Internet radio.

• With virtually all serious adult websites having shifted to some kind of dynamic presentation, security has become more important than ever. FireWallScript.com helps provide a firewall for any site that uses PHP5 as its base code.

• In the world of dating websites, the super-specialized niche sites have been growing steadily, while mainstream ones have been slipping.

• It may not be adult friendly, but for webmasters looking for an offbeat way to make some extra money, StartYourTube.com wants to launch as many video-sharing sites as possible – all with the goal of being sold.

• For webmasters who are serious about downloading torrent content, QNap has unveiled its latest NAS drive – a gizmo to help make torrenting as fast as possible.

• Some adult fans can't turn off their PSPs, not even when they're bathing. A new waterproof bag will help make that easier.

• Gizmodo has a gallert of Sharp's new handheld PC.

• If you absolutely have to know everything about a gadget before you buy it, ReviewGist.com will aggregate all reviews on a product into one, easy-to-read page.

• LG's OLED TVs will hit stores in 2011, which is sooner than expected.

• For the industry professionals who like to indulge in the finer things in life like motorized lawnmowers and automatica cocktail mixers, here's a roundup of new tech that would look at home in a Sharper Image catalogue.

• Is it ever possible to have too many USB hubs? Never.

• For the frugal adult professional: A new spoon-scale measures its own content down to 1/10th of a gram.

• For webmasters who chat online with colleagues and exchange a lot of photographs, PhotoPhlow.com will help facilitate that.

• AT&T has unveiled a new GPS-enabled BlackBerry.

• There's also a new Windows-capable smartphone on the horizon.

• Desktop widget Alert Thingy will let social-networking addicts contribute to Twitter, FriendFeed and Flickr from the same interface.
