Here at iPromo, as you might suspect, we are avid readers of gadget blogs from all over the World Wide Web. Lately, we’ve seen some bad PR go around about flash drives. New York Times Online put together a list of gadgets that you should either use or loose; things like desktop computers, camcorders, and books. Although the New York Times brings up some very valid points about tossing old technology, we still cannot understand why they would hate so much on USB flash drives. The short blurb about thumb drives discusses how file sharing is now done online and via email. Google Docs has done wonders for collaborative projects and emailing documents has been around since the popularization of email in the early 90’s. Virtual document sharing isn’t as new of an idea as we like to credit ourselves with. The short paragraph goes on to say that “a USB drive is just something to misplace or break.” *

Life is all about choices. This is a well known thought that is passed down from one generation to the next. However, the difference lays in how this saying is applied to everyday life. With custom USB flash drives the choices are endless. At the end of the day it is still just a promotional flash drive, no matter what drive you choose or how you choose to customize or use it. Of course, personalized drives can be a hit at tradeshow booths or as marketing promotions, but unless they speak directly to your niche market, you might not be getting the entire bang for your buck.
