I love it. This ‘doomsday’ device from ThinkGeek is great. Oh, and it’s a 4 port USB hub.

It even comes with it’s own keys, which act as the ‘fail safe’ on the Doomsday hub. First you have to turn it on. Then you have to flip a toggle switch. Then turn your key. After that your 1 red button press from whatever it is you need to blow up.

Might make a neat gift for the geek in your life this Christmas!

I just came across a neat, very new blog called Geek Parenting. Because let’s face it, even geeks have kids.

The blog is written by Amy - a self professed geek. And it features a bunch of parenting tips for geeks who have produced offspring.

Not only are the some interesting posts, but Geek Parenting has a really nice layout and really stands out among the billions of blogs now out there. So, good luck Amy with Geek Parenting - I can’t wait to read more!

Well, today is your lucky day. You could own your very own USB Desk Vacuum (available here).

Even though it’s pretty funny - it’s actually not such a bad idea. Though I’m not sure I’m messy enough to warrant an actual vacuum cleaner - but, you never know - if you got it, maybe you’d find a mess to be able to use it for. Perhaps if I could also find a USB Maid to use my USB Vacuum Cleaner.

It might also be a great joke/gag gift this Christmas for somebody in the office seeing as it’s only $19.99.
