And start anew with filling it with more lost or forgotten flash drives. I can remember when having 128 meg drive was just the bee’s knee’s. But it seems like you can get a 1 or 2 gig flash drive free after rebate at most places. Just today at work my co-worker was talking about art, and how she wanted to become a better artist. I just happened to be carrying my flash drive with Andrew Loomis figure drawing book on it. It’s just amazing that I can carry around a 250 page document in my pocket, it’s just amazing. I’m not a fan of the wearable flash drive, R-Data put out a flash drive the size of a SD card, but when folded in half it fits in a USB port. When I saw this little drive I was blown away at how simple and functional it was. You could put this little drive in your wallet and not worry about damage to it. In a couple of years we will all be carrying around terabytes of data with us. All for .99 cents after $150 dollar rebate on black Friday. It may not be Moore’s Lay, but prices/Gigabyte size keep this segment of PC business flowing. <BR/><BR/>Ramonrmrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09961531004430519094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15270008.post-35047311949911282422008-11-30T06:53:00.000-08:002008-11-30T06:53:00.000-08:00What I like about your post (though I am not entir...What I like about your post (though I am not entirely sure if you are being serious or are just having a little fun with the idea) is that you bring to light a possible truth for the future: wearing our data. More than that though, is the idea of keeping our data with us at all times without having to have it on our keychain (or around our neck). By integrating USB drives or SD cards or whatever into clothing, we have access to what we (think we) need at all times. And that's just good to go.Evan Brammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10001423758523950680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15270008.post-28136328530172729672007-12-07T09:43:00.000-08:002007-12-07T09:43:00.000-08:00Come up with a FireFly collection on a jelly band....Come up with a FireFly collection on a jelly band.. maybe with a mini-FireFly clasp??
