A Gizmodo post today alerted me to the fact of lots of photos on Flickr with the tag “whatsinyourbag.” You can use RSS or a Flickr client like 1001 to see all the photos posted with a certain tag, and I’ve been looking at them for a few minutes. Some people have CRAZY amounts of shit in their bags.

This one impressed me, not least because they’re the same Waterfield bags I have. (Well, I don’t have this one with the seat belt buckle, I have a different model, but still.) I plan to take a very similar picture when I pack for my next trip. My next serious trip is Hawaii in July, where I will carry a fuckload of stuff (camera and accessories, all my computer stuff, iPod and its accessories, and so on).

Here’s what’s in my shoulder bag.

The picture doesn’t include the Sony DCS-M1 I took the picture with or my Nokia 9300 which was in my pocket… Other missing things that are usually in my bag are my power supply for my PowerBook, if I am flying United a special power supply for United seats. Also, missing are various power adapters that are being used in the room right now. On flights, this bag will include a book and a few PSP games. The reason I am carrying both Etymotic Research ER-6s and Sesaphonics is because the Sensaphonics are nearly invisible and also difficult to extract. I use the ER-6s when there is a likelihood of being interrupted or where having people know I am listening to something is desireable.
