Great news for globetrotters who like to impress their friends with their travels: Now, instead of having to sacrifice a big chunk of wall space for a giant map covered in thumbtacks, they can downgrade to this clever and compact cork-covered globe.


At just ten inches in diameter, it can fit on any desk, counter, or coffee table—so it's visible to all who drop by. You'll have to supply the thumbtacks yourself though, which is too bad, because at $200 you'd think this globe included a few. But since you're a world traveler, you can probably afford a pack or two. [SuckUK]
