Alright, so that’s my lame attempt at a play on words, but this is anything but lame, check this out - It’s a bottle opener that’s also a flash drive! Somebody brought their A-game to work the day this was thought-up. I can probably guess the tough process behind it – you’re stuck at work late, its beer o’clock and you want to get home, but you’re got stuff to do…enter TrekStor’s storage/bottle opener thingy so you can store your work to take home after you’ve opened a beer.
MyTake – This is up there with ideas like the wheel, electricity and cable TV. TrekStor, take a bow, for you have done a service to the many men and women of offices all over the world. But (and it’s a big but) it’s apparently only going to launch in Europe – what about us thirsty office workers in Australia, or our brothers and sisters in North America, surely we deserve the right to open, pour and store!
My name is Alan Parker and I’m a 30 year old father of 1.75 children from the UK. I was born in a town called Sutton Coldfield and spent most of my youth devising ways to escape from suburbia. The opportunity to escape came in the form of a University degree which took me as far south as Guildford. At 21 I headed to London to work in PR for the next four years. While in London I spent too much money, ate bad food and drank warm beer. The highlight was that I managed to charm a rather sweet Swedish girl called Malin, who is now my partner and the mother of my child(ren). After our stint in London, we packed-up and moved to Sydney, where we had our fist child, Freja. We spent three and a half wonderful years in Australia and got to see and experience things they don't sell in your average package holiday catalogue. But, the lure of home was too much and we headed back to the UK at the end of 2008 and I am now I am working for a multinational PR company on all things Digital PR. As I hurtle past my 30 birthday, the most inspiring people in my life are still my parents along with Malin, my bis sis Al and her husband Seb and of course, my little daughter Freja.
