They’ve made thumb drives out of pretty much everything; even Luke Skywalker comes in USB form. Now, snobby wine connoisseurs everywhere can confuse their dozens of wine corks lying around the house for this 1GB USB flash drive.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t double as a wine stopper, it just looks like one, so if you happen to mix it up and try to use it as one, you can kiss your data goodbye. Look on the bright side: you can always drink the pain away.
Just when Christmas is over and New Year’s eve is approaching, you might want to take a break from all that booze and partying. It might be worthwhile to save whatever’s left in the bottle, it would be great if the wine doesn’t turn sour, it would even be better if you can see when it has been kept for too long. Globalwine Japan has got this handy and inexpensive VacuView that not only sucks air out of the bottle, but with a movable stopper that can indicate if too much gas has been generated when you leave the bottle standing for too long. They’re selling this for US$18 at Amazon Japan.
