According to new research, over 17,000 USB flash drives were left behind at laundromats and dry cleaners last year. While I definitely promote the idea of backing up your important files on an external drive of some sort, leaving them lofting about in the hands of strangers (or destroyed in the washing machine) isn't exactly what I had in mind.

Here's an example: clip this on your leather messenger bag or keychain when you're Read more
"I'll start a Google Doc." You might hear it every day, because volunteering to share documents via Google is almost an instant reflex these days. Most people are shifting away from sharing documents via a flash drive or network, because Google Docs makes it so easy to view and update files. But with so many schools and offices making the Google move, it can be overwhelming to keep track of all Read more
The flying car is finally here! Well, almost. Though it doesn't look like The Jetsons' floating bubble or Marty McFly's Delorean, the Terrafugia Transition is street legal and can be preordered for the low price of $279,000. That's more than a space flight aboard the Virgin Galactic, but at least you'll be able to drive it (and pilot it!) again and again. Requirements for piloting are pretty Read more
