If you are somebody who has an entire collection of USBs that takes forever to cycle through to find that one file, consider the MEMOME! USB.
This quirky USB drive is yellow, like a Post-It note, and curved at the end. Behold, the similarities do not just stop there. As files are saved onto the drive, the file names show up on the surface of the USB in e-ink. By borrowing the simple concept of the written note and displaying all the contents this way, one can easily track what it is they have on each key.
This flash drive was created by Jui-Min Huang of the National Yunlin University of Science and Technology, and is in contention for the iF concept design award 2012.
