A while back, Roberto Hoyos, the Founder of Throwboy and I worked out a little deal.  No this doesn’t involve anything illegal…get your minds out of the gutter!  Roberto agreed to send me an RSS Throwboy Pillow which I really liked and in exchange I would come up with a creative video promoting his company.  I really like what I came up with here and I feel it does a great job showing why Throwboy is the ultimate place for a tech geek.  If you don’t know what I mean, you’ll want to check out the site.

You might be wondering, is Frank simply writing a promotional post and not actually give us his opinion?  What are you new?  Of course I’m going to give you my opinion of the company.  Granted I am here to help promote Throwboy, however, the company really does make the highest quality tech related pillows.  He’s made pillows for high profile individuals in the industry such as iJustine, Gary Vaynerchuk, Chris Pirillo, and Leo Laporte to name a few.  They’ve featured Roberto’s pillows to the public as well, so you know you’re getting a high quality product.  I wouldn’t just do a sponsored post for just anyone either.  Remember, I contacted Roberto and asked him if he would be interested in working on this project with me.  Still to this day…the RSS pillow is my favorite.

I actually want to find out if Roberto may be interested in making a pillow for Social Tech Zone.  Would any of you be interested in that?  I’d really like to hear your feedback.  Anyway, I think the reason I like what they’re doing over at Throwboy is because what they’re doing hasn’t been done before.  Its original and a lot of time and effort goes into the product.  As many of you know, tech enthusiasts can be very critical of tech related products if it doesn’t meet their specifications.  In this case, Roberto gets a lot of praise on what he has created and I commend him for his work.  I’m very straight forward when it comes to reviewing a product and just because this was a sponsored post doesn’t mean I don’t stand behind the positive words I have given Throwboy.  If you don’t believe me, check them out and you won’t be disappointed in their product
