Finally, there’s a good use for theUSB stress panic buttonthat you bought a couple of months ago. You can use it to calm your nerves or maybe even signal for help when you set fire to your home or office with your brand newUSB cented oil burner! Seriously, does nobody bother to think anymore?

Talk About Technical Support
Um…er…what is this? Well, I’m quite aware of what it is, it’s a keyboard. It’s a functioning keyboard. It’s also a bra. Ok then. My only question is why would you want that? Actually, I have another question. If you did in fact want that, why would you want it in USB?
Your Kid, Is In The, Car!
Wow. After all this talk about kids getting left in hot cars, there are actually devices designed to warn you you’re leaving your kid behind. I love it. The parent is essentially on a leash. If they don’t take little Johnny with them, it knows this by a weight senser under a car seat or …
I Just Called To Say I’m Thirsty
I think we’re getting into SMS tea kettle territory with this one. A group of postgraduate students from New York University has developed a service [presumably for people who are too stupid to figure things like this out on their own] that will enable plants that are either too wet or too dry to phone …
Have a Holly USB Christmas
Wow, USB gadgets are making a further descent into tackyville. You can now get a His ‘n’ Hers USB gift set. Wanna know what’s in the men’s set? A mini vacuum cleaner with brush, why in hell you would wire a vacuum up to a computer I don’t know, a desk lamp, a cup warmer …

Hello? Is This Thing On?
Writing this, I wonder if anyone’s still reading. We both screwed off for a good long time. 15 days? eek. Have we ever done that before? I’m too lazy to scroll through the archive and check. But I think it’s pretty rare. So rare that Ann Adams, the sweet lady that she is, wondered if …
For Stressed out Geeks Everywhere…
Wow. The USB gadgets keep getting weirder. This one reminds me of a toy I had when I was a kid. It was called the revenger, and people would attach it to their car’s dash. then when fellow drivers pissed them off, they could press one of 3 buttons and it made noises of a …
We Had the Hot Seat, Now You Can Have A Cool Seat.
First we had the USB missile launcher. Then came the USB nuclear missile launcher. Then we got less warlike in our USB gadgets with the creation of the secret base emergency button, and finally, our laziness was shown with the invention of the USB ash tray. But now, we have something for the What the …

Homeboy Got a New Cellphone!
I know, I know, that was only funny for Steve, the lady at Rogers who I talked to when I got this thing, and me, but that’s never stopped me before, hahah. Remember when I jumped up and down about Rogers’s new phone that you could buy with the Talks software already installed? Well, guess …
