5.25-inch floppy disk coasters save tabletops, not data

Nowadays the use of floppy drives have become seldom. But as I wassurfingtrough the net I came through a particular blog which gave a review on this particular Floppy disc that caught my attention. So I readily thought of notifying it to all the readers.

The particular Floppy disc is modelled retro 5-1/4″ floppy disk which has some peculiarities like soft coasters are handmade from colorful felt, and just like their real-life cousins, are guaranteed not to store any of your data reliably. But they should keep your coffee table free of stains.

San Jose crafter TheGeekery handsews these coaster floppies from EcoSpun felt, which ironically happens to be recycled from the plastic bottles that your drink probably just came out of.

It is now sold in the market at a price of $28 and the floppy is available in the market in four different colors and that too packed in one of those old school floppy disk which is almost seldom as well as old fashioned today. And if you prefer to go with classic black floppies, you are free to choose  your own custom colors.

When bigger gadgets like flash drives, hard disks and optical storage anre present, who would actually go behind floppy discs.But astonishingly there are quite a few.  Show your pro-floppy support by picking up a set over at The Geekery’s Etsy shop.
