Tech Savvy Chick

By Pegah Aarabi

There are cars made exclusively by women for women (complete with lipstick holders) but a Swarovski encrusted USB key, what more could a tech savvy chick ask for?

Gadget makers are taking note that women are in the technology market and we’re here to stay. While the feminine touch is something rare and hard to come by in the often male dominated technology design world, there are items out there that can make us girl techies swoon. Here are just five that are made exclusively for us:

Swarovski USB

The ultimate feminine gadget, the 1 GB of data and high-speed USB 2.0 interface make it a practical choice as does the hidden pendant design. But let’s be honest, it’s the Swarovski encrusted design that makes this USB memory key worth the few hundred dollars. Swarovski item: 909821

Clocky: The Sensitive Alarm Clock

Clocky, the sensitive alarm clock thinks it’s her mission to get you up on time and if she fails, she gets very upset. Ok you can stop laughing, this is an ingenious idea for us perpetual snooze pressers. After one chance to get up, Clocky will wheel off the nightstand and go around the room sounding an alarm, looking for a place to hide. The slightly disturbing effect will be enough to get you up on time the next day and Clocky will be your new best friend with the added option to turn it off.

Camera Extender

Are you the one who is never in any of the pictures because you so generously offer to take them? Well now there’s no excuse to be left out with the handy Camera Extender. This gadget is also a great option on vacations when you don’t want to give your camera to strangers or when you want to take a great picture of yourself. The only downside is still trying to position the camera so you don’t just get your forehead. Brookstone item: 593137

Mouse Rug

The little guy you click on incessantly deserves to have a Persian rug inspired resting area.
