How many remote controls do you have sitting in your media room? Personally  have way too many and I ask my self constantly, why can’t I just use my iOS device to control everything. Sure I can control my TiVo with the TiVo app and the Denon receiver with the Denon app and the Samsung disc player with the Samsung app, but that is too many apps to keep switching around. Well it looks like Harmony has heard us and came up with the Logitech Harmony Link.  Just connect the black UFO-shaped Logitech transmitter to your WiFi and you’ll be able to control over 5,000 different kinds of TVs, cable boxes, receivers, and assorted tech.

Here is a small animation that will let you detect your blind spot. All you have to do is close your left eye and look at the small circle with your right eye. At some point you will see the large circle simply vanish – and that is your blind spot in action!
