From Ningin: Awhile back I wrote about some USB gloves and how silly they sounded. After reading about some other fun filled Japanese USB gadgets, those gloves actually look quite tame. Useful even. I present to you a few very odd things you should never buy. More »

Put ‘em up. Your wrists, I mean. Raise those wrists high and proud. They are now your future energy source for the gadgets you most dearly love and most often have to recharge. The Brando USB wristband charger, I am so convinced, was made for people like me. People who constantly misplace cell phone chargers, or anything portable that requires recharging. More »

From Girlybubble: In case anyone’s been wondering, I’ve been an awfully good girl this year. I’ve been so good, you should probably start thinking about what to get me for Christmas. Just in case you’re fresh out of ideas, might I point you in the direction of all things USB-friendly? Like say USB panda head speakers, perhaps? More »

There are so many wacky flash drives out on the market now and it seems to be getting weirder. The latest strange USB is an entire couch. Yeah, you heard right, its a sofa and not a miniature sized one, its an entire sofa that you can sit on. The USB sofas were made by creative design studio Cabracega for last year’s International Festival for the Post-Digital Creation Culture (OFFF). The USB sofa has wires protruding from the arm rests that let you plug in your devices, charge them, and save your data right into the couch. More »

The war between Apple and Palm seems to be over. In the latest software update for the Palm Pre (webOS 1.3.1), the iTunes syncing feature is missing. Palm and Apple have been going at each other for a while now over whether or not Palm is allowed to sync its “iPhone killer”, Pre with iTunes. What Palm did was design the Pre’s software so that iTunes recognizes it as a valid device such as an iPhone or iPod, allowing music and media integration. More »

Scientists rejoice! Here comes something that amateur scientists have been dreaming of since the creation of the microscope, a wireless, USB connected microscope. Well, it has arrived at last, and it puts a whole new twist on the phrase, portable microscope. All you need to do to use it is connect the base reciever to the USB connection in your computer, and you can go about scanning anything that is small enough to view in the scope. More »

From Girlybubble: Awhile back, I remember stumbling upon StuffOnMyCat.com and seriously dying from the hilarity of it. It’s unfortunate that the new Mimobot Hello Kitty flash drives have no place on that site — because then it’d be about stuff IN my cat. StuffInMyCat.com? Doesn’t sound very appropriate. More »

With Gresso’s Formula 1 inspired cell phone, the USB has arrived as well. The Gresso Grand Monaco USB drives come in tow different versions, Double Security and Classic. The light titanium super alloy gives the USB drive amazing protection, toughened even further with high-tech ceramic. Both USB drives also sport carbon inserts, echoing their formula 1 relatives in the racing world.

Unlike the Classic, the Double Security is designed with two independent data sources. The Double Security runs for $500 with two flash drives, 32 GB each. The Classic is a lot cheaper than the Double, racing in at $200 for only one 32 GB. Both of the USB Drives are of great quality and stand up to the F1 name and obviously the cause for the high price.

USB drives come in many shapes, sizes, and objects. There are USB drives that look like food, computers, cartoon characters, and animals. Why not make some USB drives that look like weapons? Well, now there is, the hand grenade USB drive.

This USB drive is no different than any other, it just looks lethal and will probably scare the crap out of someone, so the airport is probably not a place to go with this. To use it, just pull off the grip and plug it into your computer and there you have it, 4 GB of deadly storage. If you would like to take the chance of being stopped and arrested at the airport then you can get yours for $20 here. What will we have next? A handgun? More »
