USB Webkey May Replace Flash Drives As Corporate Swag

If you’ve ever been to any kind of trade show in the last few years, you’ve no doubt gotten a USB flash drive from one of the vendors. They hand them out like candy these days (I think I had close to a dozen by the end of my last show), but unfortunately they don’t help the company stand out. This Push Button USB Webkey may very well start replacing promotional thumb drives.

Rather than giving you a 512MB flash drive (or a 16MB one, which is almost completely useless these days) a company may hand you this strange-looking USB hub. There’s actually more than meets the eye with this two port hub. If you press the top of the hub, it will automatically open up your default browser and navigate to a specific address. Seems interesting enough, though I’d rather take a flash drive any day. Then again, free stuff is free stuff.

8-Bit Watch Is The Perfect Geeky Accessory

By Luke AndersonI rarely find myself wearing a watch these days. This is mostly because I have at least two other devices on my person that can tell me the time. I’ve considered buying a new watch, but I haven’t found one that I really feel like wearing. However, this Icon Watch may be exactly

I rarely find myself wearing a watch these days. This is mostly because I have at least two other devices on my person that can tell me the time. I’ve considered buying a new watch, but I haven’t found one that I really feel like wearing. However, this Icon Watch may be exactly what I’ve been looking for.

Granted, this watch doesn’t do anything out of the ordinary, it just simply tells you the hour and minute. It does have that retro 8-bit look to it, which I’m totally digging. It actually reminds me a lot of the little watch from MacOS. $75 will get you one geeky watch that I can bet your friends will envy.

Go Anywhere Backpack Folds Up Into A Tiny Ball

I have three different backpacks sitting in my closet. One is especially for trade shows (it has special compartments for my laptop, cameras and lenses), one I use for hiking, and another for other use. I like having all of them, as they each have their uses, however, they do take up a bit more room than I like. What I need is to get is one of these Go Anywhere Backpacks.

This might not have the most compartments or anything, but the Go Anywhere Backpack has the keen ability to fold up into a tiny ball when not in use. Seriously, this thing could fit in your pocket if you wanted it to. Now if I could just find a price.

Louis Vuitton Trash Bags

By Andrew LiszewskiJust because you’re doing something as unglamorous as taking out the trash doesn’t mean you can’t do it with a little style. While Hefty has long since taken the safe approach when it comes to fashion with their all-black garbage bags, it seems there’s now a more daring option with these Louis Vuitton

Just because you’re doing something as unglamorous as taking out the trash doesn’t mean you can’t do it with a little style. While Hefty has long since taken the safe approach when it comes to fashion with their all-black garbage bags, it seems there’s now a more daring option with these Louis Vuitton pattern bags. Perfect for the homeowner who thinks their trash is just a bit better than everyone else’s.

Unfortunately, since the pattern seems to be lacking the ‘LV’ initials, it’s pretty clear this bag didn’t come from Louis Vuitton. But if anyone knows where it did come from or where they can be bought, I’m sure our readers would love to know.
