Spy Pen Writes with Invisible Ink, Illuminates with Ultraviol, Then Shreds Messages
Posted by Charlie White at 7:00 AM on November 30, 2007
Ever get caught passing a note in class? Instead of swallowing the evidence, you droogs can just shred that little piece of your personal life, and your privacy will be intact with this ultraviolet spy pen with a message shredder built in. Ultraviolet? Yes, the pen also writes messages with special ink that can only be read with an ultraviolet light, conveniently nestled within this useful $US9 instrument. [Spycatcher, via Oh Gizmo]

So it's kinda like the Doctor Who sonic screwdriver / pen, only not quiet as cool.
Neat.

That looks like something stupid I'd pick up-when the Dollar Store gets it.

@hughjass: Classes engaging and useful enough to make passing notes unnecessary.

These stupid things have been around for decades, but this is the first one I've seen with a built in shredder. What won't they think of?!

So how "invisible" is the ink? This seems like it would make the ultimate cheat sheet.
