I've been seeing a bug trend lately in accessories, so it's kind of rad that this Jeweled Bug Flash Drive Necklace capitalizes on the trend, while doubling as a handy flash drive.
The 2GB $19 necklace is the latest in a surprisingly long line of USB necklaces, like the Crystal Rose USB Necklace and the I Heart U USB Necklace, which are also jeweled. They didn't have to be jeweled for me to notice them, but it doesn't hurt.

This USB Flash Video Camera might not erase your co-workers' memories Men In Black-style, but it will take their picture, or record them doing something silly at their desks. This mini digital camera packs in 256MB of on board memory, captures 2.3-megapixel photos, and can take up to 40 minutes of video footage. And what else do you get for $160?

Can I now start saying that Spring has sprung? With the sun finally showing its face in my neck of the woods, it certainly feels that way. Make like the flowers are blooming on the inside as well as outside with this USB Tulip Hub ($22).

I guess the new thing in appealing to lady geeks is wearable gadgets, like last week's Pendant/Bluetooth Earpiece.
Brando's newest gadget/jewelry hybrid is this Jewel Rose Necklace Flash Drive — a decent-looking necklace, if you ask me (though hardly subtle). The flash drive has 8GB of storage for $37, and is certainly not going to get lost if it's around your neck, like Brando's other flash drive jewelry, the Jeweled USB Bracelet (I guess your wish wasn't so crazy, Katy Perry).

Don't worry, with Valentine's Day coming (and going) tomorrow, my obsession with pink-and-red heart-and-flower all-out girliness will soon come to an end.
But it's not tomorrow yet, so I'm feeling free to gush about how frigging adorable these Heart-Shaped Flash Drives are.
It's about $38 bucks for a paltry 2GB and you'd have to pay for some outrageous shipping from Japan, but all I see is the pretty, pretty heart.

Can you hear me now? It's rare that I come across something that has me tossing all reasoning out the window, and immediately reaching for my credit card. When I first saw this pair of six-watt Speak-er speech bubble speakers ($120), I knew I had to have them.

Skateboarding geeks unite; first you could bring the geek to your deck, now go the opposite route and put the memory in a deck with a 2GB SkateDrive ($22).
It combines the desktop convenience of a finger board with the memory of a thumb drive — your hands will be happy and your hobbies combined.

I don't always love all the Juicy Couture things I see (the Pink Mouse and Mousepad Set, or the Velour Laptop Sleeve, anyone?), but I do appreciate that they make a valid effort to make tech accessories and peripherals.
This USB Stick Keychain is arguably the Juiciest, brand-wise, considering the heart shape, pink color, and ubiquitous "Choose Juicy" message. But I have to give it to them — this is something I would carry around, since I'm always concerned about losing (or having to root around in my bag for) the flash drive I try to keep on me.

I'll admit that I have a slight obsession with Japan, spending time on my days off cruising the aisles of my favorite Japantown shops, but I have never — ever — seen this amazing lunchbox in person, which makes me sad.
The USB powered lunchbox I caught on Tokyo Mango keeps your food toasty warm while you work so you don't have to deal with unevenly heated microwaved eats come lunch time. The box heats up and safely maintains a 140 degree heat via your USB connection, which allows you to eat right at your desk.
