Reusing the Firefox Summit Lanyard

At last month’s Firefox Summit, everybody got a nice name tag on a lanyard to carry around their neck. That was extremely useful, especially since people frequently put their real name as well as their IRC nick on there.

This is how it looked like (involuntary model: Mike Shaver):

After the summit, though, the name tags and lanyards went into everybody’s bottom drawer. Well, everybody’s but mine :)

I removed the name tag from the lanyard and connected a key ring to it, turning it into the coolest keychain ever:

    How did you attach the key ring to the lanyard?

    I ripped off that little plastic hook, and then you can pull a keyring through the remaining plastic part. You can see it better if you look at the full resolution version of the lanyard pic.

    Coolest keychain ever, also because of your handy dandy beer opener attached to it!

    Say, you wouldn’t happen to know one of those people that just put his/her nametag in the bottom drawer that would like some help to clean up their drawer, would you..? ;)
