Biodegrable Flash Drives Make Losing Your Thumb Drive No Big Deal

Biodegradable Flash Drive

Well here is something new, a biodegradable Flash Drive. I guess for all of us users who keep on breaking and losing these things will finally be able to help the environment a little bit more by at least. But I just have to ask, what happens if this goes through the washing machine?

I am assuming this is just a big marketing scheme by the tech company, but it is a legit product and will be available in a few stores in the future. I am happy to see small advancements in the gadget world. Making electronics that aren’t such a pain to dispose of properly will really help the industry grow and the environment stay a little bit more green.

One of the biggest problems with technological advances today is that they usually result in a raping of the environment. Ideas like these biodegradable jump drives are ingenious, hopefully they see a lot of success and that inspires other tech companies to follow their lead. I know for sure that companies would be more likely to create eco-friendly devices, look at Mac, who had a a lot of problems with their devices, but after getting a lot of flame from some eco-groups, changed their ways. But thats perfect, it is my hope that Dell, HP, Compaq, Acer, Asus, EVERYONE begins to follow good green trends, because then I can be a super nerd and a super cool eco-friendly hippy, without the long hair and pot that is! But if you guys loose thumb drives like I do then check out these cool new gadgets and gizmos, they need our support badly.

For those of us who don’t like the corn look you can always strip off the casing anyways. The overall effect isn’t horrible, it just needs some glamor effects.
