USBCELL AA rechargable batteries

31 people recommended this item

Description

Another inexpensive but cool gift for the computer geek in your life. These batteries recharge via the usb on the computer. Have you travelled and needed batteries for your mouse in the middle of the night? Well, here's your answer. $19.

Oh, did I mention it's also good for mother Earth? It's eco-friendly because you'll produce less waste.

Baby make me breakfast

2 people recommended this item

Description

Baby's gotta learn to be useful. Raise 'em right from the start. Teach 'em to make you breakfast. And as far as vocabulary goes, 'over easy' is much more useful than "fire truck".

Heinz Julen - Cube Chair

Description

On the subject of 'everything can be upgraded' (an often repeated mantra at springwise.com), the folding camping chair is next. :-)
I doubt even my father would find reason to complain about the quality of craftsmanship in these. (via Sigurd Rinde)

Doorganizers

19 people recommended this item

Description

Instead of going through the trouble of writing "remember other office keys" on a piece of paper and attaching it to the door - after searching for a piece of paper, a pen, and the tape - you would simply place the keys in this.
Just pray that the next note you'd find yourself writing isn't "remember to check the Doorganizer". Got to love the name. (via Lifehacker)

ShotCode

First to recommend

Description

ShotCodes are like barcodes, but 2D. If you download software to your camera phone, taking a picture of one will automagically take you to the URL encoded in it.

I just created two of these for my brother (one with the URL for his blog, and one for his contact information), and had buttons made with the ShotCode images on.
He's a student, so I can think of several ways they might come in handy. Remembering where he lives, geeking to fellow students, etc.

Update: the software is available for most phones, apart from my P990i of course *mumble*.
