USB Desk Vacuum, a Christmas Gift for Computer Gamers?

9 November 2007

I have to admit that when I saw this USB desk vacuum, my first thought was, “Oh, brother, another ridiculous gadget they want you to plug into your USB port just because you can.”

Then I looked at all the crumbs on my desk and tucked into the crevasses of the keyboard shelf.

Thanks to a World of Warcraft obsession, I tend to scarf down quite a few snacks (okay, meals too) at the computer. I could actually use this gadget, goofy as it looks. So, to the three people who know me in real life and actually read this blog, I guess you know what to get me for Christmas.

Anyway, here are the details:

“Fun to use! Tiny (8″ high) retro-designed vacuum plugs into your computer’s USB port, to keep your desk and workstation dust- and crumb-free. Brown/beige plastic. Movable handle lets it go from upright use to almost flat, just like a real one! 45″ cord.”

$20 from Whatever Works.
