Gift Guide: The Digi-Ninja
From Flickr User Balakov |
A gorilla mount for hands free use of his iPhone, digital camera or video camera. With rubberized feet for rough terrain and two dozen leg joints that rotate 360° - I'm sure he can find some use for it. By Joby.
A Special Ops -approved tactical backpack to haul all his gear (even if it's just to the office).
From Rush 24
Micro-sized maxi-storage from the La Cie MosKeyto. Only 6mm deep with up to 16GB of storage.
A slick all-black watch with rotating face plate and glow in the dark numbers. I'd say that's pretty ninja. And reasonable. From Fossil.
To challenge threatening clouds to a death match. Or look like a bad ass catching the subway (until someone realizes its just an umbrella). The samurai umbrella. Available in full size or mini.
Ninja star pushpins anyone? Although D. thinks real ninja stars would function perfectly in this capacity as well. The perfect stocking stuffer from ThinkGeek

A sake bomb. For doing sake bombs. Designed by Alexander Purcell.
The ultimate in digi-ninja films. Say what you will, but you know you loved it when it came out and so did your digi-ninja. Now get them all on Blu-ray. The Ultimate Matrix on Amazon.
Finally, if the bag and grid aren't enough, how about a tactical gear jacket boasting 26 different specialty pockets, flat waterproof seams, removable sleeves and hood and a quilted lining? ScottEVest makes clothing for the "trip of your life," which I think includes the metro.

A bluetooth projection keyboard for expanding the functionality of his smart phone. Or just looking cool. Available on Amazon.
