12. 6.2011Scratch-n-Scroll mousepad AND notepad
The two most important things on your desk are your mousepad and your notepad, so why not combine them both? The Scratch-n-Scroll from Quirky.com has an erasable writing surface, which is ideal when you desperately need to jot down that phone number or idea but can't find a pen anywhere! The only problem with the Scratch-n-Scroll is that your wrist may cause the edges to smudge a little. But, it'd make a great present for workaholics this holiday. Available from Quirky.com for $14.99. Posted by Becca

10.24.2011The Part concept merges tablet and phone
We love this design concept from trio Eunha Seo, Junse Kim and Yonggu Do, which merges a cell phone and a tablet into one in the form of The Part. Why buy two devices when you could have both together anyway?! [Via Yanko Design] Posted by Becca

10.17.2011Hello Kitty USB box set
If you're a fan of Hello Kitty then you're going to LOVE the latest gadget offering from Sanrio, a USB box set. That's right, an entire box of Hello Kitty inspired USB drives! The box features nine different characters, each a different color with a different animal theme, we can spot a few different kinds of bear, a panda and a cat from the image above, as well as a few cute but unidentifiable creatures too. The box will set you back around $114, which is a little steep but totally worth it if you're a bit Hello Kitty crazy. Plus, you'll never have to buy another USB drive EVER again. Available from Midtown Comics for $114. [Via Chip Chick] Posted by Becca

10. 6.2011India launches world's cheapest tablet dubbed the 'anti-ipad'
A tech company based in the UK has teamed up with the Indian government to build a 7-inch tablet which will cost only $35. The device which many have dubbed the 'anti-ipad' is actually called the Aakash (which is Hindi for sky). The government believes it will massively benefit the Indian population and could well boost educational resources and address the country's illiteracy problems. However. initial reports suggest that although the tablet can carry out many basic functions, more work needs to be done to its word processing application. [Via The Telegraph.

09. 6.2011USB lipstick: Perfect novelty gift
Ideal for red lipstick lovers and beauty bloggers, we've come across yet another novelty USB stick for geeky girls, the USB Lipstick Flash Drive. Although we're getting a bit sick of gimmicky accessories for our desks and usually prefer cute and quirky USB drives to anything overly girly, there's something glamorous about a tube of red lipstick that's often lacking in tech accessory land. Even if it's not your cup of tea it'd make a great Christmas stocking filler, after all there's only three months to go! Available from Brando for $16 (2GB), $18 (4GB) and $25 (8GB). Via Chip Chick.

08.29.2011Inker Linker helps you find the right printer
Unless you're a designer you might not ever need a specialist printer, but if you have a certain project in mind, maybe an invite to an event or a photo book for a birthday present, then you'll probably turn to the internet to find the service you need. However, it can be really hard to find a printer that's going to get the results you want, which is why illustrator Jessica Hische set up a very handy website called Inker Linker, an online service which finds the right kind of printer for your specific needs. Oh and did we mention how cute the website and map is? Via Swiss Miss. Posted by Becca
