What do the plugs look like anywhere in the world?

Its a question most travellers ask, but maybe not until the last minute when, as youre packing up your phone charger, your netbook, you iPad or your hair straightener, you suddenly realize that you wont be able to plug it in without an adapter.

Well, Wikipedia to the rescue! They have a page that lists every type of plug in the world, with pictures, so you can see what you need.

There are universal adapters you can buy with Swiss Army Knife style prongs that pop out or go back, turning it into the shape you need wherever you go. Those can be bulky though, and if youre just going to one country it might be easier to have the one small adapter you need.

For Spain all I need is a nifty Europlug adapter. Not sure why, but looking at it makes me think of robots. Beep beep.
