I wish I had thought of this - i was impressed by the Infinite memory gizmo featured at :

I am a follower of the technology gadget news, and luv new updates coming out everyday. I don't have a 1 Gb flash drive, which most people do - simply because I don't want to upgrade. I try to save information online - or on DVDs and CDs. I do not prefer to use and throw CDs if I can transfer large files using other techniques - like pando.com. I even wash and re-use plastic spoons. When I got a new cell phone this December, I was concerned about just throwing the old one away. My old computer mother board just died a few months ago too - and I realised that I need to start considering what I do with the parts. After alot of research i realised that effective electronic recycle is still a long long way off(living in Kansas doesn't help either).
Its always fun to get new stuff ( I bought myself a new delightful Apple iMac) - but what do we do with the old stuff? I sincerely recycle. I hate clutter and am not am not an impulsive buyer. So innovations like these are really thoughtful - and I believe every small step helps.
Another website where I go to often -www.treehugger.com
This weeks business week also has a main article on how more and more residences and companies are going green. The use of Solar, wind and even ground heat (which I don't know much about) is better available, and hopefully will gain popularity.
