World’s first bio-degradable USB Key


Disk drives have already gone green.But, Hong KongĀ  based company Hoshino has today announced their product what they call “the world’s first bio-degradable USB disk” I don’t really know whether USB disk drives are really creating so much of environmental problems.

The USB keys are corn-based–the corn is fermented into a material called polylactide (PLA), which, unlike the plastics traditionally used for these devices, can be safely broken down (but we wouldn’t recommend ingesting, popping, or barbecuing it, however).
