That little USB socket gets put to some weird and whacky uses in the name of decorating your desk, and now here's yet another: USB neon signs. If you're a terminal cubicle customizer, you might be able to brighten things up a bit with these $20 gizmos, available in @, :-) and "bar" designs. Just put the smiley away during a bad day, hey? Getting broken glass shards in your hand after an "angry moment" would just hurt. [Gadgets.dk via Geekalerts]

I am getting one. MUST HAVE BAN LIGHT!
^_^
A flexible LED strip would be cooler, allowing you to sculpt your own daily shape. A much better system than Smiley USB Neon or No Smiley USB Neon.
I'll buy one as soon as they start making it in a 'tfsu' model...perfect for those people you just don't want to talk to...
Wow, and they're low quality bending too. Great...
@Blocatan: I think it's supposed to say "Bar"
@Ben Zvan: Yeah, they looked okay on the main page...but now...ehh...
Still nothing cool enough to the compliment my pink flamingo in the bathroom.
This wouls still be a bad idea even if they made one in the shape of an incandescent lightbulb.
If computers were sentient beings, they'd file a class action suit what with all of the crazy shit we stick into their orifices.
@markarian: I think that was the joke.
