Some synopses might help, for those of us who can't afford the time to
sit through three Youtube videos.
Or who don't want to wait for them to trickle in at 56Kbps...
Oh sorry. You really aren't missing anything. Just trying to be funny.
They are videos of more useless junk powered by USB. One is a humping
dog, one is a pole dancer and one is a French wine tap which claims that
you can order wine via the Internet and then it dispenses it via this
USB spigot.
I worked for years in the multi-port serial card business at both
Digiboard and Comtrol and USB was really a joke to us all in the beginning
and so I have amassed a collection of ads, videos and other puns on the
"killer USB apps" such as naked pole dancers.
