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...

A New Leaf

Hello everybody; it's been a while. With school, work, and my extracurricular activities, I haven't had as much time as I would have wanted to spend writing. In the two years since I've last posted, I was vice president, president, and varsity captain for my high school's Academic Decathlon team, went to the California state Academic Decathlon competition twice, was a student commissioner for my city's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, a speech coach for Chinese students learning English, earned my Eagle Scout rank, and was accepted into my dream school, the University of California San Diego. With that in mind, I'm also about to graduate high school. I wasn't the speaker that my high school teachers were looking for as graduation speaker, but I thought it would be remiss if I did not say anything. My original speech would seem a bit out of context as an article, so this is a slightly abridged version. "Throughout my high school career, this...

Qualcomm debuts Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor

Earlier today, Qualcomm unveiled their new Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor on their developer tablet in San Francisco. This processor is the successor to the S4 processor that we see on many of today's flagship mobile devices (ex. HTC One X, American Samsung Galaxy S III's, HTC One S, Motorola Atrix HD, etc.), and is one of the greatest mobile chipsets on the market. Based on the scores we have seen from  Engadget , this new processor seems amazingly  fast. This new processor blows away the competition and beats every other mobile device you could imagine in every single benchmark category. This processor is like a Bugatti Veyron drag racing against a Smart Car. We can not explain how much faster this device is compared to the devices that are out right now. This new processor leaves every single top mobile product in the dust. The Snapdragon S4 Pro beats the AT&T HTC One X, all of the Samsung Galaxy S III's, the Nexus 7, the international HTC One X, and probably ...
