It is a very good idea, though it requires a bit more work. The "propeller" ; should be glued to the cork somehow, and the cork glued to the rotor (epoxy perhaps, or hot glue?). Otherwise it may come off and hurt the user. Also, the blades should be filed a bit, the edges trimmed, to make them less sharp... Otherwise, I like it :) Ah yes, I believe it would be better to use an old mobile charger to power the motor, instead of risking damage to the USB port...

This is pretty dangrous, it might chop off your fingers if you touch it but its O.K I guess if you are careful with it.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to interface devices. USB was designed to allow peripherals to be connected using a single standardized interface socket and to improve plug-and-play capabilities by allowing devices to be connected and disconnected without rebooting the computer (hot swapping). Other convenient features include providing power to low-consumption devices without the need for an external power supply and allowing many devices to be used without requiring manufacturer specific, individual device drivers to be installed. -- Entry by Wikipedia.org
