When I posted about a cute and tiny USB flash drive there was also a silly photo of a dog wearing one. It was sent to ThinkGeek.com in jest by someone who observed that dogs have important files they need to store too. Well it turns out, there already something along these lines available just Continue reading...
I just found something new going for Apple’s iPad. It’s got the kitty seal of approval, as evidenced by Iggy the cat who investigates the iPad in the video below.
