Default connect Fans via USB

Is it possible to connect fans via a USB? i wanted to try this out at home based on the Bytecc notebook cooler (Newegg.com - BYTECC Notebook Cooling Pad ( Aluminum ) Powered by USB port Model NC-500 (USB) - Retail) and they connect two fans via a USB

most fans apperently use 12V and the max power draw from a USB 5V. doe any one know what fans are suitable for this job?

From what I can see-- just about all notebook coolers run on USB.
