Are you a geek with a morbid fascination? Do you like to conjure up some Halloween or Dias De Los Muertos on your computer? Then let me dig up some skeleton flash drives for your examination.

First from the Mimobot series, we have the RayD80 skeleton memory stick.

This freaky character from Planet Blõôh comes with desktop extras, an issue of mimoZine magazine and character sound bytes when plugging in or out. The RayD80 has a bone load of 1-8GB and a limited release of 2000.

Closer to home and more for the medicinal nerd, we also have human skeletons.

With an anatomy of 2GB this skeleton memory stick can easily prove to be the backbone of your file system. And if your real one hurts sitting in that computer chair, you can take a look at the image and impress your doctor the following day.

If you like your USB key more “decapacitated” however – without sacrificing any GBs – you should check out these skull flash drives. They come in many forms:

“Plain”…

…as custom images…

…or rings.

Imagine holding such a skull in your hand Hamlet-style, asking it: Where are your flashes of memory? Followed by an almost-answer pondering: To usb or not to usb? That is the question…

A little less dramatic and grotesque we dig on to find dog bone flash drives.

With a capacity of up to 8GB you can smoothly transplant the marrow of your data with them. And how nice it is to plug a bone instead of picking one with your neighbor.

If you tell me however you’d rather like your bones buried (and maybe your neighbor too) then I have something for you also. Coffin flash drives!

With this I rest my case: Coffin Flash Drives by Jason’s Creations (check )

Up to 2 GB can be laid to rest or turned over in these caskets. Hopefully with no grave errors…

Unfortunately, some of these skeleton flash drives are pretty rare to find. I guess they just don’t like to come out of the closet. And lets face it, it’s doubtful that USB skeleton keys will open many doors for you. One thing is sure though: Your computer will meet death in a positive way.

When I posted about the Pico a few weeks ago I was left wondering if it was the smallest flash drive in the world. Well, this week I received a resounding ‘no’ answer thanks to the arrival of EagleTecs nano stick. Truly amazing!

First of all, it almost looks like the drive only consist of the USB connector. And when its plugged in one could think there’s nothing at all. Because with a weight of ca. 2.5g and a mindboggling size of 19.4mm x 15.4mm x 6mm this memory stick truly operates on a small scale. But efficient too! A writing speed of 6MB/sec as well as a reading rate of 15MB/sec are testament to that. As for capacity, EagleTecs flash drive is available in 4 or 8GB.

The world’s smallest flash drive is shorter than a quarter

I’m really wondering how there can be enough space for the memory chip and microcontroller unless there’s some new technology involved. But the real question is: How does one ensure not to lose such a tiny gadget? Well, simply by leaving it in the laptop/ PC or attaching it to a strap or keychain like you would do with any other flash drive. Although some people are known to lose those too, not to mention the cap. Another option may be to carry it in your wallet like the Slim Data USB Card . Unless of course…

Anyway, let’s just hope all these mini sticks don’t mean the end of funny flash drive shapes and sleek USB designs . I doubt it though!

After consuming Flash Drive Peppers and USB Pizzas you surely must be thirsty, right? So how about quenching it with some cola memory stick? You can choose your coke as a can…

But maybe you don’t like your data to fizz out and instead brew it around? Then you should have a beer memory stick.

Unfortunately this is rather a warm one! If you want to add insult to injury you can have it stale too.

I’m sorry if I grossed you out now. But maybe I can make it up with something more distinguished. So how about a good bottle of wine flash drive?

As you can see, there’s a USB drink for every thirst and need. If yours is small you can have your memory stick bottle filled with 1GB or if its great, with 8GB. One thing you have to consider though is that unlike real ones, these bottles either open at the bottom or at the top with the whole bottleneck. That way the USB interface is revealed and you can spill all your data without a worry.

However, if you don’t want to pass on the traditional lid you can simply add a cork stopper.

Or a bottle lid.

As these have a capacity of up to 16GB you can be assured that there will be no bottlenecks in your storage. But if too much pressure should build up and thus have a hard time removing the cap or cork you may have to add yet another memory stick.

The USB bottle opener!

Not only could you get a grip on that sticky USB cap but you could actually open a real bottle with it. So while you let your data flow into the port you can also pour one down your throat. And how convenient that you can save yourself the trip to the bar and still share a drink with your best bud. After all, that’s what your computer is, isn’t he? Chances are he knows all of your personality, from your facebook account to your credit card number. And he listens to all your joys and sorrows from your emails. Maybe he even knows some of your most intimate secrets. But does he ever get annoyed or judgemental? Does he ever argue with you? No, he just sits there patiently at your service, fulfilling all your needs. Now let’s drink to such a good friend!
