The great Steve Wozniak unveils what he carries inside of his travel backpack

Many tech people look up to the great Steve Wozniak. These people may look up to him, because he co-founded  a small company with Steve Jobs and called that company Apple. Today, Steve Wozniak showed the internet world what he carries around in his bag every single time he travels. He carries around every single item shown in the picture except these:

  • 2 of the iPhones, an iPod nano, and an iPad that belong to his wife, Janet
Steve Wozniak also carries around every single USB adapter and USB cable shown in his backpack with him at all times when he travels except these few cables:

  • a Belkin AC tripler with dual USB that Steve carries in his suitcase
  • a dual USB adapter that is from Janet's travel things
  • the Canon battery charger is carried in Steve's camera bag
  • the firewire HD he carries in his suitcase
  • the Verizon 3G mifi adapter(Steve says that the standard micro USB screws up the mifi, so he has to use their awkward connector)
The Woz also carries around much more than the picture shows. He also carries around these items.

  • an AirPort Express and MacBook Pro 85W magsafe adapter, which are not in this photo
  • a bluetooth mouse
  • a pair of binoculars
  • projector connectors
  • multiple Gameboy Lights (a Gameboy model that they sold in Japan but never in the United States)
  • Gameboy link cables
  • plenty of foreign AC adapters,
  • prism glasses for watching movies in bed
  • sunglasses
  • earplugs for concerts
  • Ultimate Ears UE18 earplugs for flights
  • Gameboy link cable
  • tons of pencils for pencil games on flights
  • tons of pens
  • tons of sharpies
  • tons of paint pens (for signing)
  • red-blue-purple-yellow-green laser pointers
  • credit cards
  • hotel cards
  • airline cards
  • hard rock card
  • medical cards
  • small accessories like olloclip iPhone lens adapter
  • Square (credit card reader attachment that goes into a smart phone's headphone jack)
  • flash keys
  • flash media adapters
  • cigarette lighter dual USB adapter (car charger dual USB adapter)
  • audio doubler cable (headphone splitter)
  • iPad USB/SD Card adapters
  • toiletries for hotels
  • batteries of many types (AA, AAA, CR2, CR128, odder types for things like Steve's bag beeper for locating his suitcase)
  • eyedrops
  • $2 bill pads
  • pencil puzzles
  • itineraries for upcoming travel
Steve Wozniak usually says that his backpack weighs about 50 pounds. He is not sure but Steve has to carry it every step through airports. Steve's sure that he is shorter now than before and he does not walk as fast. Everything has its place in Steve's backpack. Sometimes the TSA takes a long time unpacking it. A couple of times they have asked Steve to take out everything electronic and Steve asked for a total of seven bins! All of those bins were filled by Steve with the exception of only two being filled half-way, plus his MacBook Pro, plus the bag. All of those items went through the X-Ray machine, and then Steve has to repack all of it. Nothing in Steve's backpack goes unused, but he says the bluetooth mouse is close. Gizmodo had the great honor of having this set of information emailed to them from the great Steve Wozniak. Want this information directly from the source?

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib...

Moto G: Moto Grrrreat!

Before the Moto X was officially announced, people speculated that it might be offered at an incredibly low off-contract price. Some people even guessed that it would be $199 off - contract . This was sadly not true, but Motorola did say that they would eventually offer a device similar to the Moto X, but with a lower unlocked price. Motorola also said that the cheaper device would be geared towards more markets than the United States, like Brazil and other emerging markets. They have finally taken off the covers of the Moto G, and it is almost exactly as Motorola said it would be. It looks like a Moto X, but it has less expensive internals. Many other smartphone manufacturers have made cheaper versions of their flagship handsets, but they almost always turn out to be pieces of junk. Is the Moto G a worthwhile handset, even at its $179 off-contract price? Can you be happy with the Moto G as your primary device. Scroll onward to find out, but you can just look at the title if you wan...

Hands-On with the Motorola Droid Maxx and Droid Ultra

Even though the Moto X is going to be on every US carrier, Motorola still feels the need to have a line of Droid handsets on Verizon. Motorola’s Droid Razr HD, Maxx HD, and Razr M were relatively successful products, and they were actually really good.  The Maxx HD brought hours and hours of battery life, a speedy processor, and a decent HD display. The Razr M was a very nice smartphone in a small package, and was one of the best small Android phones you could buy at the time. This year, Verizon and Motorola unveiled the Motorola Droid Ultra, Maxx, and Motorola Droid Mini at a launch event a while back.  These products are now available for $200, $300, and $100 on contract respectively at Verizon, so we decided to try out the Ultra and Maxx handsets for ourselves. Can these Droids stand up to the likes of the HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4, and Motorola’s own Moto X? Are these the Droids you’re looking for? Scroll onwards to find out the answers to these questions and more ...
