Guest guest Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 I just discovered the benefits of an USB Flash Drive. The one I got is the 128 MB Cruzer Mini from SanDisk. This tool, which looks like a key for your USB computer port, is a portable hard drive. You can store whatever data you want in it. The way I am using it is by creating several folders for storing different types of info, such as Cystic Fibrosis, stock information, my book of thoughts, Interesting Health and general News, etc. Since most of the information I get is while " working " , I never felt confortable storing in the computer since eventually I would have to find a way to transfer somewhere else. With the cruzer, you get a feeling of ownership of the info, and it's easily transferable anywhere. In regards to this message board, I still find it overwhelming and wish people made a joint effort to store the more useful posts somewhere. Even if it's to put in your own " cruzer " and then zipping the file and putting somewhere for newbies to have access to. I would be happy to share whatever I store, but I usually just take a quick look on the board, maybe once a week, and only read a fraction of it. h-hhaaa-mmm.... remember when I said before I was a very organized guy...wait, there is more coming later on...
