Getting back to basics.
Computers were originally designed for offices to increase productivity. Their role continually expanded as engineers found new and better ways to harness the power made possible by years of extensive research and development.
Taking the computer into the next dimension of usefulness was the Universal Serial Bus (USB.)
Quickly small developers jumped on the USB bandwagon and now you can power all manner of useful items from your USB:
- Lava Lamp
- Christmas Tree
- Vacuum Cleaner
- Heating Pad
- Label Maker
- Greenhouse
- Blender
- Aquarium
- Eye Warmer
- Beer Cooler
- and that only scratches the surface!
Yes, we have turned our computers into the world’s most expensive power strips!
