A great motivation to keep the daily walk routine going is to measure how many steps you have actually taken. So if the desire to continue with physical exercise is dwindling, the USB pedometer makes for a good buy. Using this pedometer is quite simple - just clip it onto your belt or pants, press the center button until the LED flashes, and start walking. When you are done, plug the device into the USB port of your computer and you will soon see your step count for the day. If you're into numbers and statistics, tracking this count via the supplied software should keep the enthusiasm high. Once you're satisfied (competing with yourself), you can always gift a few to people around you and start a community to compare the counts. The device (done up in attractive red and white) can be yours for $9.99 at ThinGeek.
