Laptop Privacy Sweater
I'm not sure quite what to think of this concept, although my first thought is 'how do you breath?'.Here's what the artist says: "I've been working on a project where I knit sweaters to go from gadgets to your body. They're supposed to be a fun commentary on how attached and concentrated on technology we are, and to highlight the lack of movement that happens when we're engrossed in our laptops, keyboards, PDAs, etc. the one pictured above is for privacy, warmth, and concentration in public spaces while using a laptop.

Geek Magnets
This set of Geek Magnets is hand-stitched and only $10! That's a lot of stitching, for just $10.
Or how about some recycled keyboard key magnets? Made with super strong rare-earth magnets and vintage keyboard keys.
Funky Robots from Recycled Materials
"Ollie is one tough robot, built to handle a heap of abuse. Rocks and worse just bounce off of his head. Ollie's body armor is bomb-squad certified, he can squat thrust twice his weight. Once, on a dare, he did eleven thousand pull-ups."
"Slim had dreamed of being a surgeon, but over time has come to accept his work as a reptile taxidermist. He takes pride in the craft and fine motor skills it requires. In his free time Slim enjoys backgammon, macramé, and Russian literature."
"Electro sees himself as a ready-for-anything, direct current commando bot: He is visibly proud of his infrared vision, jackhammer boots, and reinforced chest cavity. He would also like you to know that his hands can cut through aluminum, zinc and copper (as long as it's not too thick). Electro also enjoys folk dancing."
These cool robots, and many more, are available at Robot Guy

Storm Trooper Snowglobes
These caught my eye over at Craftzine. Adorably tiny snowglobes, the cutest being these hilarious pocket-sized Stormtroopers. Just shake one up and it's just like the ice planet Hoth--only this one fits in the palm of your hand. Stormtrooper Snowglobes

Cassette Artwork
Debbie over at CustomInk based in Scotland paints these fun wall art pieces featuring the humble cassette tape. She even adds the title of your choice, to bring back those happy memories when mix tapes were all the rage!
Now what would I choose? Hmmm, I guess "Awesome walkman mix tape for interrailing around Europe 1992 featuring Stone Roses, The La's, Verve, Blur, Radiohead and much more..." might be a bit too long.
