10 things to do with floppy disks

Chances are you’ll have a few old floppies hanging around from the early 2000s, but I doubt you’ll be using them for storing data bytes. Average floppies hold a not-so-incredible 1.44 MB – that’s about 2 large pictures or half of a short song.

However, they do have more value as iconic pieces of geek culture. Besides their obvious potential as equipment in games of office Frisbee, we have come up with a few cunning ideas for re-purposing them. My favourite is the highly desirable floppy disk hand bag.

    The questions that many people make are usually incomprehensible, this is often a problem for some writers who have no idea of the most appropriate to speak on their blogs. I think this topic is very appropriate, is simple but very effective, I congratulate the idea so brilliant that they had to create this article. thank you very much for sharing the information.

    For over 8 years I practice daily reading, I love to read blogs or articles like this, with issues of public concern and a very effective and accurate information. I would say goodbye by making clear that section is spectacular and I would like to receive much more information.
