Michael Young USB bracelet

I'm a geek, to be sure, but I wouldn't have thought I'd ever consider wearing a flash drive on my wrist. But... this USB bracelet by Michael Young actually looks okay, and hides its functional properties pretty well when the bracelet is clasped.

Even so, you might ask why would you wear something that can so easily fit in a pocket and doesn't offer anything when it's sitting on your wrist unplugged from a USB port. There is a good reason, for me at least. Flash drives are so tiny that I often forget that I've plugged it in and leave behind files I need. Maybe this is the intended function, to act as a reminder, as the bracelet is emblazed with the word "LOST". If this was also a watch, I'd definitely wear it. There are USB flash watches out there, but they look like they should be wearing the logo "GEEK".

$60, exclusively from Charles and Marie.

I've been doing that for nearly a year with a USB extension cable... never thought to add a bit of functionality and then sell it to a person for $60... damn.

That's not a reason for me. I think that if they were more beautiful they'd been lost a lot less.
