Before the convenience of digital cameras, we had to use cameras that required film. This resulted in InventHelp’s Invention Girl having boxes and boxes of loose pictures stored away in her house from years ago. Getting all those photos into a scrapbook would be great but InventHelp is keeping me pretty busy right now!

The Fourth of July is this weekend and InventHelp’s Invention Girl is having a little get together to celebrate the holiday. Along with corn hole and badminton, bocce is one of my favorite games to compete in at cookouts. These games are perfect to play on a warm, sunny day. And just because the sun went down doesn’t mean all the fun has to end!

InventHelp’s Invention Girl tries to stay on a healthy diet although it can be quite difficult at times. Fried foods are some of my favorite but I always try to avoid them because they can be so bad for you, or so I thought.

First off, InventHelp and INPEX would like to thank everyone who helped make the 25th anniversary show one to remember. We had a great time and it seems everyone else did as well! We hope you found the seminars, speakers and events useful and interesting. It was great to see the showroom floor filled with enthusiastic inventors who were eager to show off their inventions. This year’s INPEX also had a record number of business attendees (almost 1,100) who were on the lookout for inventions and new product ideas.

Pennsylvania Bussiness Central wrote a very nice follow-up article about INPEX 2010, which can be read on their site: Inventors Flock to Monroeville for INPEX.

Thanks again from everyone at InventHelp and INPEX, and we can’t wait for next year’s show!

This week began the official start of summer and it’s already a scorcher. InventHelp’s Invention Girl is always seeking refuge from the heat. Unfortunately, I can’t control the temperature at work and sometimes it can get a little warm in the InventHelp offices. I want to keep cool in my office with a fan but not one that sounds like an airplane preparing for take off!

It’s an exciting day here at the Monroeville Convention Center, just minutes from downtown Pittsburgh. InventHelp’s INPEX®, America’s largest invention trade show, got underway this morning with a flurry of activity.

Kicking off the event was Michael Planit, President of Product Strategies Inc., who spoke to a standing room-only crowd at the INPEX Inventors University™. Michael covered the basics of direct response television marketing in his presentation, “Is Your Product Right for DRTV?” Next was Jan Goldman, President of LumpyMail.com, who revealed the “Seven Secrets to Marketing Your Invention.”

Literally! It can be hard to tell when it’s time to replace a bike helmet. It’s assumed they’re fairly sturdy and can last a long time. Researchers at Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials have created a new way to inform people that they have dangerous invisible cracks in their helmet: a helmet that emits an awful smell when it is no longer safe to wear.

Almost everyone here at InventHelp has their coffee sitting on their desk in the morning. Later in the afternoon that eventually gets replaced by water or soda. The problem is that any drink, hot or cold, can turn room temperature all too soon. InventHelp’s Invention Girl is not a fan of coffee gone cold!

Although the Memorial Day cookouts are over, there is always a need for handy grill tools. It’s tough to know when exactly hamburgers, chicken and other BBQ meats are cooked just by looking at them. It can get annoying to constantly break out the thermometer to check temperatures, too!
