Most mobile phones and digital cameras come with memory cards that won’t last a week for most of us. You buy a nice 2 megapixel cameraphone and get a measly 128 MB MMC. You throw it away somewhere and forget about it. If you’re a frequent phone changer, you must be having a handful of them card.
Anyways, those 128 megabytes can hold a lot of your Word files, .jpegs, .exes, .txts, or .phps. Suppose you’ve got some really sensitive data that you want to keep in some place safe, unbeknownst to your spouse, parents, or your kids. This is where low capacity memory cards come in handy.
Got an inbuilt or external memory card reader? Move all that stuff to your abandoned memory cards and keep them in a place you can remember. To dispel the thought that I’m suggesting something evil, let me say that you can even use the cards to store important uninteresting stuff like résumés, documents, or build a repository of all your passwords.

Protect your keyboard/mouse from terrorists

My 3-year-old has a passion for banging his tiny hands on the keyboard and clicking the mouse randomly. In no time he sends files on the desktop to the Recycle Bin, drags the taskbar to fill up half the screen, creates a shortcut on the desktop for “New Text Document,” and to provide a finishing touch to his work, he offers me a view of My Computer’s properties.
