Ask Slashdot: What's On Your Keychain?
kuhnto writes: I was playing with my key chain and started to wonder: what does everyone on Slashdot have on their key chains? What cool things do you have that you want to share? I'll start: car key, car alarm dongle, house key, Kingston USB Drive, AAA micro flashlight, and a Swiss-tech Utili-key.
To extend this a bit: what other things do you usually carry around with you, aside from the common items like phones, keyrings, and card/cash holders?
I think of someone else on Slashdot had picked your noise you would have noticed
Bottle Opener....you always need that in case you need to open a (good) beer while on the road....
