Remember how cool flash drives were when they first came out a few years ago? As the storage capacity of the drives gets bigger and the technology needed to make one gets more miniaturized, there is now room for adding more features to the standard pocket-sized driver.

Enter eNECESSITIES, a company that will brand your slogan or message to their line of products so you can hand them out as company Christmas gifts to the employees or tech swag to clients that visit your firm’s convention booth. eNECESSITIES’ latest novelty is the USB Sound Flash Drive, a little innovation that could drive you insane if it falls into the wrong hands. Plug this USB into your computer and an audio message (up to 20 seconds) is played from the unit’s integrated speaker. Some people will load on their favorite song or a cute message and for pranksters there’s suddenly a new way to embarrass your co-workers (“I’m looking at porn!”) but for companies that are always looking for new ways to market their wares, this is gold.

eNECESSITIES offers a few suggestions to their prospective customers like “Deliver a short audible commercial or advertisement” or “Call 1-800-you-win1 to reclaim your prize!” Uh oh. Listening to a commercial while your data downloads to your desktop may be just around the corner.
