(William Mitchell, Me++) My Online Status AIM: askpang About Me I'm a research director at the Institute for the Future , a think tank in Silicon Valley, and a Senior Research Scholar in the Science Technology and Society Program at Stanford University . I started life as an historian of Victorian science; my first book, Empire and the Sun: Victorian Solar Eclipse Expeditions , was published by Stanford University Press in 2002. Being an historian and a futurist might seem contradictory, but they're not. Both use the same intellectual instruments , just pointed in different directions. In addition to this site, I'm the lead blogger on Future Now , the Institute for the Future's blog on emerging technologies and their social and cultural implications. search [Searches with Google] I'm Blogging This!

I love it. I'd call it my new child, but I wouldn't know whether to name it Madison or Conor, which is the law now.

Buy a Baby Shower Gift A guide by Traci Duvall Humes ,Veteran baby shower attendee and author E-mail this guide to a friend Baby's Daily Diary & Keepsake Journal: A Customized Organizer for Parents and Grandparents Alike Buy new : $11.53 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours What to Expect the First Year, Second Edition Buy new : $10.52 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours Ocean Wonders Aquarium Cradle Swing Buy new : $99.99 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours See all products Whether shes your best friend, a distant relative or a co-worker, its exciting to hear that shes expecting or adopting a baby. Youve received the baby shower invitation and you want to buy the perfect gift. What do you do? Here are my top 10 tips for choosing a great baby shower gift. This guide will help you select a gift any new parent will love: 1.Choose something from the new Moms baby registry list. Youll never go wrong if you choose a gift from the baby registry list. If the new Mom is registered, the store will usually be listed in the baby shower invitation. Remember, if a new Mom took the time to identify gifts for her registry, then the least you could do is choose a gift from her list. In most cases, you can shop online or by phone. Its really a painless process. Keep in mind that stores like Babies R Us will wrap and ship the gift for you. 2.Give something that will help keep the new Mom organized. No matter how organized a woman is before she has a baby, the wheels come off her bus after the baby is born. Gone are the regular salon appointments, spa days, perfectly organized Blackberry, and girls night out. Enter chaos, diaper pails, doctor visits, and bouts of self doubt. Two gifts that kept me sane and organized were 'Baby's Daily Diary & Keepsake Journal: A Customized Organizer for Parents and Grandparents Alike' (my book) and 'What to Expect the First Year, Second Edition' . 3.Gift cards are always welcome. If you dont have time to shop or the new Mom is not registered, give her a gift card. Unquestionably, caring for a baby is the ultimate money pit. Gift cards are great and can be used anytime by the new Mom. The best gift cards are from baby, discount, department or grocery stores. If possible, get a card for the store where the new Mom regularly shops. And, dont forget the java every new Mom needs caffeine. Give her a Starbucks gift card and shell love you forever. 4.Savings Bonds are an investment in the babys future. Want to give something unique? Try a savings bond. Its an excellent contribution towards the new babys college fund. 5.Baby swings are great. Sleeping babies make Moms happy. One of the best tools to get a baby to nap is an 'Ocean Wonders Aquarium Cradle Swing' . Babies love it. They can sleep in it or just occupy themselves to give Mom a break. 6.Baby Einstein Play Gym. Belly time is important for all newborns. Ive received great feedback from friends whove found the 'Baby Einstein Play Gym' invaluable and their kids love it! 7.Baby Bjorn Baby Active Carrier. Strollers are good but using the 'BabyBjorn Baby Active Carrier - Sporty Black' will give you your hands back. Talk about freedom! Buy the Baby Bjorn for a new Mom and shell have some much needed control and semblance to a normal life. 8.Create your own gift basket. If you really want to be creative, make your own gift basket. You can fill it with anything you want. The best things to include are items on this list, practical items like diapers and wipes as well as the new Moms favorite snacks or favorite bottle of wine. 9.Movies and Music. Lets face it. A new Mom will likely miss the latest movies and lose track of the hottest music. Keep her in the loop by giving her movies and DVDs. 10.Babysitter gift certificates. If you really want to help a new Mom, give her a babysitter gift certificate. Every new Mom needs a break. Whats better than offering to baby-sit once a week or even once a month? In fact, a group of friends can create a babysitting team and take turns relieving the new Mom. One final tip: whatever you do, dont forget to include a receipt with your gift. I hope this guide helps. Good luck! Products mentioned include: 1.
