About Me

That’s a Huge…Bug!

Check it out my fellow geek-kin! This 2.5 foot isopod was found attached to a submersible unit that returned from doing tests in the deeper parts of the ocean. Imagine coming across this thing while playing around with your promotional beach ball! While most people cringe at the sight of this thing…all I could think was, “imagine how it tastes”! If someone were to send me one of these, I could study it while I eat it! Although, now that I think about it, it’d be pretty tough to fit that thing into a custom gift basket!

Dreamate Sleep Inducer

Stuck staring at your logoed clock counting down the hours to work as you try to get some sleep? Well, here’s a great solution! The Dreamate Sleep Inducer is a type of promotional watch that sets itself to massage you via acupunctural means 30 minutes before you’re supposed to hit the hay. With custom technology that calms you down through the massage, this device is perfect for anyone trying to readjust their biological clocks so that they can set themselves to their required schedule. I have yet to try this, but I sure will and am eagerly anticipating the results!

TV Poltergeist!

Man, I wish I was able to get a promotional technology product like this when I was in high school. The TV Poltergeist will turn TV’s (most, not all though) on and off every 5 to 20 minutes. This would have been the perfect prank to play on my professors when I was in school, or to annoy my parents and girlfriend at home! The batteries in this thing lasts for months and you can hide it practically anywhere as long as the LED can be pointed towards the TV. It’s just too good to pass up! And just to annoy your teacher you might want to get them a custom stress ball shaped after the TV remote so that you can constantly confuse them!

LED Faucet Lights

OK, this is seriously cool! LED Faucet Lights will emit lasers to change the color of water coming out of your faucet. Who wouldn’t want one of these! All I can picture is everyone freaking out when they turn on my faucet to get some water. It would be hilariously awesome, and I’m sure my friends would agree as you usually only see LED lights on promotional mini-key chains and products like that. This is one of the better custom kitchen appliances out there as you can pretend your faucet is a mini-version of Niagara Falls.

USB Heaven…

Ever get angry when you run out of free USB ports to use on your computer? I know I have! Well, interestingly enough a new design has been showcased that allows for an infinite amount of USB ports to be used. Chinese design student, Gonglue Jiang, came up with the concept (see picture) which allows the user to connect USB devices to other USB devices already plugged into the computer, giving you virtually limitless amounts of USB plugging space. This great promotional USB accessory is an idea so simplistic in its nature that I wish I had thought of it! However, I know some of you will be wondering about a product like this taking up a huge amount of bandwidth; however Jiang also designed a power connector to solve this problem. The only problem with this custom computer technology is that it is only a concept and has not been put into production yet.

The Big Bang T-Shirt!

BAZINGA! We all love to hate him…he’s Shelldon Brown, one of the best characters from TV’s The Big Bang Theory. And now, you can have your favorite iconic character on an imprinted t-shirt with his favorite one-liner! I don’t know about you, but the thought of having this neurotic physicist on my shirt is hilarious. And the best part is that only people who watch the show will know what your shirt means, making this one geek schwag masterpiece. Now just grab a custom jacket with your favorite comic book super hero on it and you can be just like one of the guys!

Admiral Ackbar on the Obama Administration?

A reference to one of the most hilarious Star Wars one-liners of all time, or an attempt by the rebels to warn us of our president’s plans for the nation?You be the judge! The one thing I have to say about this custom t-shirt is that it is BRILLIANT. This is one piece of custom apparel that tries to be funny and actually succeeds! Now if only the Ole’ Miss student group trying to push for voting rights on their mascot (I’ll give you one guess who they want it to be) gets its hands on about a thousand of these, they’ll be set! Just for your enjoyment, I leave you with this:

To-Do Mousepad

Where’s the best place to put a geek’s to-do list? On a customized mousepad of course! This geek schwag specimen has a nerdy to-do list imprinted on it, with just one crucial item missing…
