Top 10 The Most exciting USB device

10. USB Squid The biggest difference between the USB Squid and other USB Hubs is the USB Squid's arms can bend in any direction (so all your USB cords don't have to be coming from the same place!) Also, they have ridges on one side and the top - and indents on the bottom and other side. You can actually connect the USB ports using these ridges in many different configurations. Maybe you need 4 vertical ports or 4 horizontal or the end two free and the middle stacked or maybe a zig zag hub. The choice is yours. Let's see a real squid do that!9.

How to Build a Potato Launcher
2008-02-23 15:40:56
Steps Method 1: Create the air chamber. Cut two lengths of 2"-diameter pipe 30" long and a third 6" long. On the end of one, glue on the 2"x1" SPIGOT x FIPT reducer bushing. To do this, glue the bushing into the coupling, then glue the coupling onto the pipe. Using the elbows, then make a U-shaped pipe, with the 6" section as the bottom of the U. Cut the bike tube off of the valve, leaving the valve and a small flap of rubber around then the valve, about 3/4" wide. Before gluing on the pipe endcap, drill a hole in the center of the cap just big enough for the bike valve. Insert the valve, cut from the tube, and tighten the valve on the cap using the nut. Then glue the cap on the open end of pipe. Where the female threads are, thread the 3" long pipe nipple. Be sure to use the teflon ta

Top 10 All-American Inventions
2008-02-23 15:40:06
The airplane Numerous principles of flight are necessary to get a plane off the ground. By the beginning of the 20th century, different people had added various components, but the goal of sustained flight eluded all of them -- except the Wright brothers. While not the first to achieve flight, the Wright brothers applied aerodynamic principles they had researched and developed out of thin air to fly the first fully controlled, heavier-than-air, manned, powered, fixed-wing machine.Their primary and most important contribution can be considered the last one: The creation of a fixed-wing aircraft, where the wings don’t move in order to generate the necessary lift. This was the missing component for flight, and is the essential principle behind every glider, prop plane, jet airplane, and ro

The Top 10 Mistakes People Make When Starting A Business
2008-02-23 15:39:13
What are the common mistakes that new entrepreneurs make and how can you avoid making them yourself? Here is our top 10 list of mistakes people make when starting a business:1) Not enough money. The most common reason why new businesses shut down is that the owner runs out of money. Cash flow is critical to a startup business. You could be profitable and still have to close your doors because your customers are taking too long to pay you. Cash is king in a startup venture and you need to prepare for it. One option is to make sure you have enough startup capital from your own investments or outsiders (bank loan, private investors, etc). A second option is to ease into the business so that you start doing it on a part-time basis until you know that it will make enough money to support you.
