I'm thinking coasters but we already have a few around the house. Any suggestions which don't involve just chucking them in the bin?
I’m not quite sure what to do with these

Now you have me thinking.
what is it ||
+guy yak it's a 3D model of the "save" button
How old are you?
Apparently the disk in them can be used for infrared photography.
+Nikhil M Really? How would that work?
Apparently it filters visible light. You may have to find a way to use that with your camera but i am sure it's easy. http://m.instructables.com/id/Floppy-Disk-IR-Camera-Hack/
Let me know if you do it. I wanted to do this a couple of years ago but I couldn't find them.
+Alen Tomasevic Yeah so am I but I'm also rubbish at coming up with ideas, thanks for the suggestions
+Nikhil M Thanks for the link, I might look into whether this could work as a filter for my DSLR
There are many suggestions online: pen-holders, trashcans, spiral-bound notebooks, etc. http://www.noordinaryhomestead.com/10-ways-to-reuse-3-5%E2%80%B3-floppy-disks/ There are also places that recycle them (Googling will find you a relatively local one.)
Sometimes you have to reinvent the Twilight Zone. Don't throw it out! Just keep the Old Model computer in the basement that it is formatted to work in. What is old always become new again! Especially since the old models can't be hacked or need Wi-Fi to run. Remember the Movie? "TRON" the original movie with the old man and the old city at the end. Treasure the Classic History! Steve Jobs Would keep his. Truth!
+Angelique Jones Steve Jobs would always send the floppy to the trash can though. and I'm afraid I've gotten rid of my old floppy drive some time ago so I've nothing to use them for their intended purpose (not to mention that in this day and age, 1.44MB is nowhere near enough storage for anything useful)
I don't think I can completely store even 1 photo from my OnePlus One on a floppy disk.
Laptop bag… Lolol…
Oh. I am sorry to hear that. Many times we keep stuff to long. I guess your
right. I also tend to forget how many new phones & computers are
continuously coming out. It's so strange because it looks like the same
thing. Over & Over now. How many phones can they make? Laughing to myself.
Oh! My Goodness a phone & a Camera in One as Best friends have us all going
crazy! Mmmph!
Laptop bag. Jan k that is a cute thought. I am laughing to. We all buy
stuff that just turns into clutter the older we get. Amazing.

Lolol I know +Angelique Jones. I still have my ghetto laptop from 2002. And it still looks mint! Maybe I can sekl it to a movue company as a prop.
Jan. Just keep it and know that you have a classic item. One of a kind items do sell. Sell it or keep it. It is up to you.
Keep it like that ..may b 50 yrs from now it would worth some grands..
+Mohammed Mairaj I'm sorry but I have better prospects in life than keeping antiquated plastic technology in the hopes that it will make me a fortune when I'm closing in on being 90
Yeah..
OK. I see we can never have a conversation for fun. Here it comes again! Way out from left field. These site's are for entertaining one's thoughts. Some tend to think way to hard on other's situations. UNREAL!

I always liked the idea of an 8ish inch floppy, a 5ish inch floppy, and one of those on the wall, instead of the three flying ducks people used to have.
If you have 5 make a pen holder…
They come in handy during a solar eclipse or planetary transit.
+Parheez Gimi I have no need for a pen holder though
