Do you smell something good? Ahhh… flowers! Having sweet fresh flowers in my working table uplifts my mood and makes me feel motivated to work. A jade plant is good feng shui in the working area but aromatherapy sounds better. I found another ingenious USB aromatherapy oil burner. All you need to do is just add one drop of Lavender aromatherapy in the little “X” slot included in the package. Wait for the USB device to get warm and presto! Lavender scent spread all over the room. Looks cool huh?  Unfortunately, it doesn’t say if you can also use the USB as a storage device. But what the heck? The smell is heaven.

Need light? Here comes the USB Flash Drive cum Lighter. This USB drive must be designed for geeky smokers. You can smoke while saving your data. Nothing can be cooler than that! A good way of hiding and storing your files, no one will suspect it works as a thumb drive as well.  The lighter is refillable and the USB connector slides out of the bottom of the lighter. You can even adjust the flame. A practical geeky stuff.

Your choice: available in cowboy style 4GB and polished chrome finished 8GB capacity can be found in ThinkGeek. Grab it before it disappears.

Finally! Rechargeable batteries without tagging along the battery charger is here! How many times have you experienced your rechargeable batteries giving up on you just when you’re about to shoot awesome photos? I experienced it many times and it’s a total bummer. So when I saw this USBCELL rechargeable batteries, I can’t help but smile because finally I can eliminate the need for extra equipment especially when I travel.  You just plug it in your laptop while you surf or blog and you can instantly use it for the next photo session. Awesome isn’t it?  It’s Eco-fab because no need for extra equipment to recharge and that saves hours of power. Less clutter as well. Easy charge from any USB port. Currently, they’re available only in NiMH 1.2v 1300mah AA batteries. But let’s wait and keep an eye out for AAA’s, C’s and D’s. Happy charging!

Traveling this weekend? If you can’t live without your techno gadgets like your laptop, iPod, cell phones, etc. taking too much power outlets and electronic device is a bummer. Less is the best. Traveling light allows you to explore the place you’re visiting. I’ve learned it the hard way. I’ve been a heavy packer in the past and I end up breaking my back from carrying too much stuff. Just to give you an idea how heavy I pack, I bring my bathroom with me. Nowadays, I can live in one knapsack for 3 days. Talk about improvements huh?

So you may want to consider taking along with you this Dual USB Charger and Power Surge Protector from Belkin. Usually hotels only offer one power outlet to plug your gadgets but now you can extend it up to five outlets! The 2 USB connection is great for charging almost any USB device (cannot be used for data transfer) and the 3 AC power outlets (with surge protector) is good for laptops or notebooks. You can even dry your hair at the same time. Here are the juicy details:

  • 360-degree rotating plug with 4 locking position
  • Provides complete surge protection through all outlets
  • Offers compact, lightweight, efficient design
  • Features mini-USB cable to charge virtually any USB device including BlackBerry® and Motorola® RAZR phones
  • Comes with Lifetime Product and $75,000 Connected Equipment Warranties

For some people who doesn’t want to bring a lot of electronic device when traveling I think this product is good over all. But as a safety reminder always check the specs before buying a product. You may end up buying something that you have no use for. Have a safe trip!

You accumulated a lot of computers and electronics, but keeping them clutter free has been a perennial problem. Worry no more because here’s a sleek USB Hub that will keep your unruly cords in place. When I saw this Cables To Go 7 Port USB 2.0 Hub I was skeptical, it looks like a harmonica. But after reading the reviews of people who actually bought and now using this gadget, you’ll be surprised to know what it can do to help you with cord clutter and for a better geeky experience as well. So here’s what their raving about and how it will help you declutter your cords:

  • The 7 ports allows you to  attach your fixed electronics (like printers and webcams) at the back keeping it neatly out of sight. The 3 ports allows you to attach transient electronics like iPods, digital cameras, etc.
  • It is solid and stays put on your desk
  • It is compact, does not take up so much space in your working area
  • It is nice looking, modern and sleek
  • It is plug and play
  • You can take the hub when you travel
  • Many swore their computers and electronics worked without a glitch when all plugged in the 7 ports
  • Mostly compatible with all kinds of OS

I would suggest you read the reviews first before buying this product. In addition to the USB hub, to give you more control of your cords, use plastic twists tie. When the cords are neatly plugged in the USB hub, you can secure them with plastic twists to keep them in place. Keeping your geeky cords in place allows good chi to flow smoothly in your working area, you also prevent accidents by tripping over it.
