KangaRoom Personal Media Case $12.99
When I leave the house to attend an industry event, I always carry way too much technology with me. I never know will be there so I'll need my digital camera or my Flip for a video interview opportunity. Of course I will need to edit it all on the fly, but where would I store the files? What I love about the KangaRoom Personal Media Case is that it is designed for on the go. The details are smart and functional. The case not only features elastic straps to hold your gadgets in place, but it also comes with a zippered pouch to hold all the odds and ends. Never forget your charger, accessory or game pack ever again. Plus, you can charge your favorite gadget while it's still in the case. Genius, no?
ClickFree Portable External Hard Drive, 160 GB, $71.25
If you haven't noticed, laptops keep getting smaller and smaller, making them even more functional and portable. However, that portability comes at a price - a price that is usually paid by hard drive space. I love the ease of the ClickFree. Simply plug in the device to your computer, and the device contains all the information it needs to be compatible with your computer. Transfer files from computer to computer, backup your work, or port your latest video project. Note: ClickFree requires the use of 2 usb ports to gain the necessary power to run the device. Some computer models cannot power the device without the use of an external power source, available through ClickFree.

Models even come with built in video editing software - there's no moment too big or small, plus they come in fun colors and customizable models. If you have a budding blogger on your Christmas list, make sure you put her name a on well-wrapped Flip.
Nintendo DS Lite, Silver, $159
I can't count the number of people I have seen playing a Nintendo DS Lite on the L train, but it was many my interest was piqued. How could someone play a game on a screen so small? What was the big attraction? Little did I know that a 30 minute train ride would suddenly dissolve into a seemingly 5 minute experience. I became entranced playing Mystery Case Files: Millionheir. If you thought handheld video games were for kids, you were mistaken. There are a number of games for the DS designed to improve vision, brain function and memory. If you have a commute that requires an ipod, consider the DS. Besides, who couldn't stand to improve their brain function?

Personally, I spill on myself at least once a day and I never feel close to perfect when I head out the door, especially for an important event. Accidents happen, but the real challenge is how you handle them. There will be panicking no more with this Holiday Party Survival Guide.
