The end to your power cord woes. (And what woes they are.)
One of my big tech peeves is power strips that don't actually let you use all of the outlets. Yes, I know--high class problems. But I hate hate haaaate when there's not enough space between them for wider plugs, or or not all of the outlets accommodate the three-prong plugs that are essential to so much technology. When New York Times tech guru (and cool dad) David Pogue tweeted a link to the Pivot Power flexible surge protection [edited link] I thought, awesome. Six adjustable outlets insure that every plug fits, and you can even twist it around a corner or a couch leg.  Another little gift: the six-foot cord has a flat head plug, which crosses off my other tech peeve.
