Oh, that's cool!

Whilst browsing the web and I came across one of those moments that made me say "Oh, that's cool!". What's cool I here you ask...

Four Eyes Bookmark and / or USB stick!Designed by Willie Tsang from Imm Living. Here is what they had to say about it.

Think of the term "nerd" and you will likely identify this type of individual with a list of visual cues. Ranked highest among these would be the classic thick black frame eyeglasses. Nerds can be found around the world, going against the grain of popular culture. These socially awkward misfits partake in cerebral activities such as academic reading and technical gadgetry.
Four Eyes has a dual function and can be used as a bookmark and a USB key with a connector attached at its base. Its geek chic silhouette pays tribute to nerd culture.

Then I found this!
The Puffy Bookmark.
The bookmark contains an air-filled chamber, half of which is flattened by the weight of a book.
squeezing the exposed side inflates the concealed side lift the page just enough for
your finger to slip in.
After use you can even make your own tube tree with the packaging! visit www.onesik.com.
