ModoPocket MicroTripod: Just Don’t Lose It!

You’ve all heard the expression “you can never be too rich or too thin”. Yet, a recent story about someone losing their MacBook Air because they may have thrown it out with their recycling has caused me to rethink the validity of this particular statement.

Take for example the ModoPocket MicroTripod for sale over at Think Geek. It’s tiny, sure, and it’s lightweight and easily portable. But is it so tiny and thin that you could spend the money on it and then misplace it because you’re not completely organized? It’s only 6mm thick when folded! I could lose it from opening the product box to look at it!! However, it would take up virtually NO space in your existing camera bag and it would come in quite handy for those shots that you can’t get without one.

“BOOSH”, huh? That’s some pretty powerful language for a tiny metal tripod. I would think words like “PRESTO” or “VOILÀ” would be more appropriate for such feats of camera wrangling. Oh well - I guess that’s why I don’t work for Think Geek to write product descriptions.

Pick one of these BOOSH-inducing gadgets for yourself for $29.99.
