Condoms are a life-saving piece of tech, and for being little more than uninflated latex balloons, they do their job pretty well if you wear them. That's the part that Bill Gates is working on. No, he's not going around as a one-man condom-police army, but he is offering $100,000 to anyone who can make a condom less of a bummer to wear. Read More >>

But that doesn't mean you can't have a little fun with this extra-special evening -- so rather than jewellery or flowers, why don't you increase the luuuurve with something that makes your beloved go "ooh" and "aah."
