ThinkGeek Backpack of Holding Giveaway!

December 2, 2014December 13, 2017Dakster Sullivan26

When I first saw the Backpack of Holding on ThinkGeek’s site, I was more attracted to the name and reputation of the other Bags of Holding than its looks. I have the conventional Bag of Holding and I’m very happy with it. I expected that despite the unfortunate appearance of the Backpack of Holding, that this would be just as awesome as its cousin.

It was around this time last year that I fell in love with the ECBC Hercules backpack a versatile laptop pack with more than enough room for all my stuff.

GeekDad Review: Nomadic WD-37 Wise-Walker Waist Pouch

October 16, 2013December 13, 2017Brad Moon2

I always look forward to receiving a package from JetPens. The website is the ultimate for pen and stationery geeks (this wood-barrel Spalding pen is one of my all-time favorites), and they also stock cool gear like backpacks and bags for organizing everything and carrying the stuff around. There are a lot of really unique things available on JetPens.com that you simply won’t find anywhere else. Which brings me to the Nomadic WD-37 Wise-Walker Waist Pouch — or as I think of it, the iPad fanny pack. Actually, that’s not fair. This is nowhere near as awkward as it sounds, although it does take a certain type of person to be able to pull this off (and I’m not certain I’m that person).

Everyday Bag: Ogio Renegade RSS

July 26, 2013December 13, 2017Anton Olsen2

I’m on a quest: a quest to find the perfect mobile office. I originally started by testing different laptops, gadgets and tools, but soon realized that the most important item in any mobile office is a bag. Without a means to quickly pack up and go any mobile office would simply lack the all important mobility.
