Baked
"Extend-A-Cord"
"A semi-finalist in Hammacher Schlemmers annual Search for Invention, the Extend-A-Cord turns a single outlet into a safe, convenient power source for up to four electrical devices. Three outlets are built into the plug-in wall box; the fourth is on a power cord that can be extended six feet, then retracted at the touch of a button." |

It's kind of cool that an invention so similar to yours won a prize like that. |

Could have sworn we did this idea before, but maybe the author deleted it because it was baked. |
|

We have. Too bad it's gone - I liked it. |
|
|
Update, I found it in the Internet Archive, it may have been missed during the recent data recovery. Link has been sent to bakesperson for potential recovery. |

Fair enough... well baked, grilled and charbroiled.
I admit defeat. |
|
|
Doesn't mean it's a bad idea. In fact, it's a great one. |
|
|
Quite so. I know I've had my share of ideas that turned out to already have been posted. In fact, I list them on my profile page. |
