I wrote this article because when I found out, well to be honest I didn’t just think it was funny, I though it was pretty cool as well, it is a pretty serious matter loosing a USB stick and to find out, 17 thousand of them just get left in at the dry cleaners, well it just shows how much more advance everyone is getting and how small USB sticks are getting! I mean I can barely tell if I’ve got a USB stick in my pocket and to be honest, I’d probably leave one in there and it seems that’s what thousands and thousands of people seem to keep doing, you must be thinking of course there are dangers involved and you are right, USB sticks can be very, very dangerous to your security.
Lets face it, every single survey I’ve ever seen, is spammy, it’s pointless and has no real point behind it, other then to promote a company/product/product research, that’s it pure and simple, that’s the use of online surveys in 2011, only 400 dry cleaners were polled for the report which allowed us to find out roughly how many USB pens get lost, but this is meant to be a 400% increase from 2009, that’s a hueg increase in just 2 years.
So what it is all about? Well USB pens are great, it’s that simple, there aren’t many faults to them and there are of course plently of more expsensive USB pens which will cost you more, but cover up these flaws, stuff like added security, drop/water damage (You’d need one in this case!) protected USB sticks and god knows what else! If you use a computer, a USB stick is something you’ll probably own, if you work from home sometimes, you’ll probably have one and if you work from home + the office, your wasting time not having one, it’s that simple.

Over 17 Thousands USB Sticks Get Left At The Dry Cleaners
Somali pirates anchor Danish family yacht, threaten death
Now it's a Danish family of five, including three children, that has been taken hostage by Somali pirates who vow to kill them should a rescue attempt be made. The pirated yacht, taken last week, was anchored off the shore of Somalia today.
The 43-foot sailboat was being piloted by Jan Quist Johansen along with his wife, their three children, ages 12 to 16 and two Danish crew members.
A Somali pirate going by the name of Muse Abdi said the family was transferred to another, larger pirated ship.
Richest man in the world opens art museum in Mexico City
Carlos Slim is the richest man in the world with an estimated net worth of over fifty billion U.S. dollars. He recently unveiled his new Soumaya Art Museum in Mexico City. The anchor shaped structure houses Slim's personal art collection and includes works by Diego Rivera, Auguste Rodin, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Salvador Dali.
According to the AP, the Soumaya is named after Slim's late wife and designed by his son-in-law, architect Fernando Romero. The curvy structure's exterior is covered with over 16,000 hexagon shaped aluminum panels that glimmer radically in the Mexican sun. The massive interior is 183,000 square feet, providing plenty of space to peruse Slim's collection. The art housed within the Soumaya will be a rotation of the billionaire's personal art collection, which includes over 66,000 (!) pieces. The Soumaya opens to the public on March 29.
