Talk about sleeping on the job... I didn't even post this in the right story...
Did you say something?
About right..
However, I wonder if the author has looked into writing books for academic purposes...
Anyone who has a degree knows just how much money is made on textbooks, and the frequency with which they are replaced and updated.
If I was a writer looking to make a living at it, especially in a vertical field, I would seriously consider writing university level textbooks.

Come on mods.... this was TRULY funny... I laughed in the middle of a meeting!
Is it bad that I'm somehow slightly pleased that I indirectly caused you to laugh in the middle of a meeting????
Crayons = wax. As a dad I can tell you when a crayon goes through the dryer it is carnage, so if your memory stick threat model includes going through the wash, I would avoid wax.
LOL- No kids.. Didn't think about the crayon factor..
Try alcohol rather than water for washing. It is best if you can get 100% alcohol which may be available from your drug store if you ask for it. It dries quickly and thoroughly with ease whereas water tends to hide and remain moist.
For this application, de-natured alcohol would be a fine product. You can find it at any home construction supply house, and it'll be much cheaper per volume unit than medical grade alcohol.
As an amateur diver, I do NOT recommend gluing your O-ring. These things lose their suppleness and crack, rendering them ineffective.
Make sure the groove is very smooth to prevent nicking the ring, insert the o-ring in it and lube the ring once in a while (once a year should be more than enough) with silicone grease.
As for Epoxy: it should do the job in a pinch, but I would recommend looking at some silicone gelly like Olympus uses for it's Tough cameras. More flexibility = less cracking = less possibility of water seeping to the board. Most USB keys get flexed often in pockets, etc.
Hey, I know it's overkill for a 10$ trinket, but if you gotta do it, you gotta do it in style.
Honestly, at some level, wax would really do just fine too... Easier to work with, and could actually serve as the 0-ring too... (just fill the cap and empty out the central area (so as to not wax up the connector.)
All you want is waterproof?
USB drives are super cool like that. (No moving parts!)
All you need is a little 2-part epoxy.
Take apart your flash drive (any!) and simply coat the green / black components with as much epoxy as you can stuff into it's exterior shell..
Now, the cap, buy a thin o-ring from your local hardware store, using a knife or dremel, cut a very narrow groove around the inside of your cap. Carefully use epoxy (sparingly here!) to secure the o-ring..
This might not be 100% water proof, but I'm pretty sure it would be very water resistant.

Very well done!
I'm waiting on a call from Broadsoft.. Intermedia answered right away, very friendly and helpful. Apparently the terms "Unified Communications" and "Office Communications" are synonymous.
I'd still love to hear some user experinces with this software solution. Have you used it? Do you love it, hate it?
Thanks to CheifRED and adoyle!
Not necessarily more accurate, just more, use it to decide for yourself what's true.
Nope.. Just ref'd me to their media department.
