Peanuts fans, here’s a fun way to put a little tribute to Charles Schultz’ canine best friend on your desktop.

This Snoopy Flying Ace USB hub connects up to three of your USB devices while the battling beagle takes on the elusive Red Baron. And this isn’t just one of those boring inanimate USB hubs.…

I see what’s going on here, a device with a I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-LEGO case, nothing new. Everyone seems to be crapping brick gadgets these days.

I mean look at the damned things. They’re almost as large as those Coleman containers that was all the rage when I was in high school. The droids shake their heads and emit bleeps and bloops, but damn they’re huge.

And this, I believe, is the palette swap = $$$ formula at work:

The droids…

While everyone (mostly Brando) was going crazy making all sorts of gadget designs like panda paper shredders and white bread wrist rests, the obvious connection between the multi-tentacled octopus and anything that has to do with wires or cords remained untapped. So I think I speak for everyone when I say: USB Octopus Hub, we’ve…

My goodness. I’m trying to postpone making another edition of Why? Why not?, because my nose is still bleeding a bit from last time. But the internet is merciless, relentless; it just keeps on giving. Do you have your Advil ready? Okay. Let’s go: today we have a potato USB hub. It’s from Brando. As…

This Blaster 4-port USB hub is a minor fail. I mean, it’s cool that it transforms into a laptop (which you can then connect to a real laptop); it’s just that Blaster doesn’t transform into a laptop. Would it have been less awesome if Blaster the 4-port hub actually transforms into a boombox?

It’s just…

If the Mac Mini’s 5 USB ports are still somehow not enough for your needs (and you don’t have one of these), then get one of these bad boys.

As you can see, you can connect this multi-ported monstrosity to 2 computers, but they can only access the hub one at a time. Since it’s…

Can’t get enough LEGO bricks? Then here’s another accessory for your desktop that you might want to add to your collection.

These USB hubs from Systown bear more than a passing resemblance to LEGO blocks.

Perfect for connecting your LEGO flash drive and LEGO MP3 player to your LEGO Mac Mini, these hubs add 3…

Are you a feline fanatic? Here’s a fun way to keep all of your USB devices connected to your computer.

Perhaps Neko the USB hub cat ($19.50 USD) will tickle your (cat) fancy. Just plug Neko into your computer’s USB port, and the little kitty provides 4 extra ports for connecting devices to your Windows,…

It’s the perfect companion to the sticky notes flash drive: the tape dispenser USB hub, for the person who needs to affix a lot of things to other things. How have you lived this long without it?

I may laugh now, but the next time I need to tape something down while simultaneously looking for a…

If you remember the NES game M.U.S.C.L.E. as one of the worst (and silliest) timewasters in all of history, then these tiny USB wrestlers are just the thing you want exercising suggestively on your desk.

In Japan, these fellows are well-known figures from the Kinnikuman manga. Elsewhere, they would probably be more recognizable if they were made…

The Flexible Chromatic USB Hub will delight you with bright hues and a flexible design. You can fold and stretch it to your heart’s content, all while you do your USB thing.

This gadget reminds me of those toys that have colored blocks of wood connected by fabric straps, that can go either direction. You’ll…
