The XBIZ Weekly Tech Watch

• 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.

• 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.
