Now that Thanksgiving is past, I don’t feel bad about putting up some Christmas stuff (It is the 1st of December after all). Now, if you work a desk job like me, your cube (or what have you…I don’t actually sit in a cube) can always use a little sprucing up. The problem is, the second you start plugging things in, the safety people are all over you. But if you work at a computer, you have a convenient source of power just sitting there. As always, we turn to the leader in USB powered devices, ThinkGeek, for all our festive desk decorations.
First up, a USB-powered Fiber optic christmas tree.

ThinkGeek always goes above and beyond. In this case, they not only provide us with a nice product, but even a festive song to go with it:
O USB! O USB! A wonder of technology;
O USB! O USB! A wonder of technology;
Our favorite toys are plug and play,
Just stick it in and we’re on our way.
O USB! O USB! A wonder of technology!
If you’d rather go with something a little more low key, more traditional, you can just stick with the USB-powered Christmas Lights:

You should check out:

This site has all the USB-powered holiday paraphernalia you can imagine! Along with some year-round goodies and some seasonal awesomeness (the USB heated blanket has been on my wishlist for a while now)! I love it, and not just because they charge a pittance for shipping (which is free until the end of the year)!
I’ve actually noticed that a few of the products do eventually end up on ThinkGeek, but they usually stock them first, along with a whole bunch of crazy stuff that never makes the ThinkGeek cut.
