Digital Recycle Bin Saves Your Deleted Files

I am not a big gadget guy, but this product intrigues me. Named the TEMPO, this coffee-cup-sized trash can sits outside of your PC and acts as external storage… for your deleted files. If you delete a file, it heads right to the can to stay there in case you find out you need it again in the future. The greatest part might be it’s look. It’s a black cup with white trim, and blue light runs up the side, reflecting how full it is. The idea behind the product is cool, but if you are a Linux user, our newly posted article will help you make sure you never lose an important file!

Created by industrial designer Franco Cagnina for Intech, the TEMPO connects via Bluetooth to your Mac or PC and automatically stores backup copies of files as you delete them. As you fill the drive, a series colored LEDs on the side of the device indicates how full the “bin” is.
