Curated lets us know about this:

“Designer Qi Weijia is responsible for this brilliant USB power source solution. Yanko has this to say – “The Charging Tap is quite an adorable hub that takes in cellphones, digital cameras, MP3 and other USB enabled devices, for charging. Quite simple and minimal in styling, all you need to do is to hook up your gadget and turn on the tap! I love it!”

I love promotional items especially the ones that are useful in everyday life. “The Woolrich USB Pen-Drive is a project by Gianni Rossi for Woolrich John Rich & Bros. The sheep character was created as a toy, USB drive and a promotional gadget for Woolrich’s customers in Milan, Italy. Greeted with great success all Woolrich outlets, the USB drives where given away within minutes. We will keep you posted when and if they are make a comeback.” Bring this Stateside please. (fb>c3d)

The USB is fast becoming another pertinent display of self expression. Designer Arwye Wan appeals to the wine snob in everyone with his cork based memory stick. The cork lends itself well to the function, in both size and shape. Always nice to see when inspiration and function merge well. (via Yanko Design). 

From sharing images to borrowing music from your friend’s laptop, the USB drive has become a quintessential part of every day geek life. But USB sticks are not usually items of distinction. Germany’s Thalbach Design Manufaktur looks to change all that. Their hand engraved and hand crafted USB drives give you serious points in the geek world. Fashioned from woods, the drives come made to order and should not be confused as cigar holsters. Available now for around 85$US (via gearcrave).

S.T. Dupont once again breaks new ground in the art of writing with the Neo-Classique President, the first fountain pen that combines a writing instrument, in the tradition of luxury goldsmithing, and an ultra modern 4 GB USB key. With Chinese lacquer and a compelling aesthetic, this new pen hides its technological secret under a flawless and elegant design, the hallmark of timeless and unique S.T. Dupont pens. Even though each pen requires 150 operations and 200 quality controls before being placed in its case like a priceless jewel, what we remember of a S.T. Dupont pen is its weight, its curves, its soul…The Neo-Classique Président is yet another proof of this.
