A rechargeable AA battery - only it feeds of your computer through the USB port. Great for travelling. Especially if yours is the stationary variety. (via Treehugger)

Doorganizers

Updated Oct 10, 2007

9 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)

Eggling

Updated Dec 15, 2006

31 people recommended this item

Description

Fun, decorative, customisable and eventually edible (at least the herbs). Will make a great gift for someone who 'has it all'. It wouldn't even matter if 10 other people had had the same idea - I could quite imagine having a whole collection of these little buggers.

Gorillapod

Updated Nov 29, 2006

29 people recommended this item

Description

A different sort of tripod. Makes it possible to attacha a camera to "just about anything- anywhere and everywhere". It looks like they've also also just released a PRO-version for SLRs/heavier cameras that supports up to 3 kilos. Not a moment to late given the success of the original version!
Don't miss the product-animation (and the gallery) on the manufacturer's website - a perfect example of how to display products online.

Banana Guard

1st to recommend

7 people recommended this item

Description

Like a helmet for your banana (no, not that one). Such a clever solution to the squashed-banana-at-the-bottom-of-the-bag problem!
It claims to "fit the vast majority of bananas" and has small holes to let your fruit breath. Comes in yellow, green, blue, purple and red.

I'm sure my dissertation would have been finished by now if I had one of these. Or maybe that's just another "dog ate my homework" excuse. (via Popgadget)
