We got Blue Laser Pointers!
Blue laser pointers are the newest laser pointers on the consumer market. While not as bright as green laser pointers, due to the human eye's better sensitivity to the green portion of the light spectrum, these blue lasers are still the hottest thing ever. They create a beautiful blue-violet point that's unlike anything else. They're also much softer to look at than the brighter green lasers, so if you're a little put off by the sheer brilliance of a green laser dot, then the blue is definitely for you.

Why did blue lasers take so much longer to come on the market than green lasers? That's hard to explain, but we can tell you it involved secret labs, gnomes, and Neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate (Nd:YVO4)... well, maybe not gnomes, but laser diodes are pretty complicated and do involve lab-grown crystals and semiconductors and frequency doublers. Say what?
