Bringing you all the best gadgets from around the web...

Gadgets, gadgets everywhere... We love our gadgets, don't we? The geekier the better almost. So what better than to collect the month's newest gadgets all in one place? I bring you Gadget Fest: March 2007. Without further ado, the gadgets we covet from the last few weeks:

Seizure Light alarm System

First up, Seizure Lights. These lights act as an unusual alarm system, pulsing in a pattern that is supposed to trigger an epileptic seizure in the person robbing your home or office. I'll give it points for originality, although I am not sure it would be effective.

LED Anti Bug Light

Hate bugs? I know I do. This next gadget might be right up your alley. Not only is this LED light more efficient and more ambient and pleasing to the eye, bugs aren't attracted to it. Since it doesn't emit ultraviolet light of any kind, there is no reason for bugs to flock to it. That's the best news I've heard about light in ages.

In Ear Noise Cancelling Headphones

Love noise canceling headphones but hate the look and feel of those giant cans? No fear, JVC is here with a set of thin, contoured in-ear noise canceling headphones. It even comes with a power supply that has a mute switch, just in case you need to hear what's going on around you for a minute.

Contoured Disinfecting Keyboard Cleaner

One of the more useful gadgets on the list is this one, a contoured keyboard cleaner that fits in the palm of your hand. What makes it unique? The reversible sponge and the built in disinfectant dispenser.

Space Invader Socks

Get the yen for geek chic? So do I. Luckily, there are plenty of geek chic fashion items to choose from. Were you an Atari 6400 junkie like I was? Then you'll love these Space Invader Socks. You have to knit them yourself, but that's ok because the pattern allows to put in your own high score. Geek chic indeed.

Next up in the geek chic line, an iPod accessory for the athlete. Wear the Nike iPod Sport Kit on your new Nike running shoes and keep track of your miles, plus get music geared to your pace. The Nike iPod Sport Kit works with Bluetooth technology.

Keyboard Purse

Another item in the geek chic line is this geekishly awesome Keyboard Purse. Maybe not something for the everyday geek event, but for those special occasions like SxSW or Ted, what better way to show you're a girl geek extraordinaire than with a keyboard purse?

Laser Comb

What about when you're getting ready for that night on the town? Worried about running our of ways to cover up that bald spot? Hair thinning? Try the Laser Comb. This new device advertises that it helps regrow hair and keep the hair you have left form falling out. The jury's still out with this one, but if you decide to try it, come back and let us know in the comments.

Walk on Water

What geek hasn't wanted super powers? Well, this won't give you real super powers, but it will make you feel like you can walk on water with the groovy Tu-Fin Water Strider. I'm not sure how it works, but it looks like it allows you to walk on water in a fashion similar to a ski machine or treadmill.

InstaFill Gas Cap

Everyone wants to be a Nascar driver, at least for a little while. This gas cap trap door (called the InstaFill) lets you have the illusion you're docking with a pit crew, at for a little while. No more leaving the cap on the pump!

Helping The Paralyzed Walk

Medical science wouldn't be the same without the help of the geek world, and the new gizmo that helps the paralyzed stand is no exception. It's a nerve stimulating box and belt that sends the signals to your legs that your spinal cord can't anymore. If you have muscle tone left, you can use this device. Geeks: revolutionizing the medical future.

Media Furniture

Geeks even have a hand in interior design. There is a new wave of futuristic furniture coming that allows you to integrate your entire multi media and gaming experience into your home decor. This type of furniture is called media furniture. One way to enjoy your movies, music and gaming is in the form of these kinds of chairs with the speakers and controls built right in - it's just like you were in the movie yourself.

Mood Lighting Pods

Mood Lighting in Action

You can even make the mood of the room match the mood of the movie you are watching with this morphing mood lighting, Morpheus Mood Lighting Pods. These little beauties allow you to control the ambient lighting in your rooms with the touch of a button. Pretty cool.

That's all the gadgets we have room for this month, but I'm going to be making this a regular feature - combing the Internet for the coolest and newest gadgets and innovations for you every few weeks. So keep coming back to check them out!
