What better way to get into the Halloween mood than with a desktop toy to usher in a daily reminder that life is but a moment, and we will soon end up as a bag of bones eventually. The Skeleton Seesaw is a great time waster, although I suspect your attention won’t be held for too long before you relegate this to a corner, letting it gather dust. The Skeleton Seesaw retails for $34.95 a pop, which is rather pricey for something that has no electronics inside.
Skeleton See Saw

October 29th, 2007 by Edwin in Audio/Video Gadgets, Electronic Gadgets, Gadget Gift Ideas, Office Gadgets
Looks like the Movin’ and Groovin’ Snakes have some company, and it comes in a less mobile form of flowers in a pot. Here’s the skinny on these Movin’ and Groovin’ Flowers.
No water is required for these groovy chaps, all you have to do is plug in the 3.5 mm jack connector to your multimedia device, crank up the volume and enjoy the show as they move and groove to the beat of your music. Movin’ and Groovin’ Flowers also boast pretty decent speakers too and they will pump out your favorite tunes with clear, rich sound and surprising muscle for their dainty guise. There is even a three-way switch which lets you select music and dance, or just music, depending on your mood.
Choose from Lilac (going fast!), Pink, and Yellow variations, and they retail for £14.95 each.
USB Golfer heads for your desks
October 29th, 2007 by Edwin in Office Gadgets, PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets
The USB Golfer enjoys a much more privileged life than you do - he gets to play as many rounds of golf as he likes without worrying about the weather outside since he’ll be indoors all the time. This £29.99 desktop toy works great for those slow afternoons, as you’ll be able to control where he hits via a software on your computer. He receives instructions and power via USB - just make sure you don’t aim and hit one ball towards your superior’s bald head accidentally.

Shooting Cubicle Alarm System
October 26th, 2007 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, Gadget Gift Ideas, Office GadgetsThe Shooting Cubicle Alarm System adds a level of pro-activity to whoever sneaks around your cubicle whenever you’re absent in body.
Each unit has an ever-watchful motion sensor. The first line of defense is lovingly referred to as Alarm 1. When Alarm 1 is tripped two very important things happen. First, it flashes and klaxons to signal an intrusion. But (and this is the kicker) it also arms Alarms 2 and 3 using invisible wireless signals. Alarm 2 also has an audible alarm, but it is louder than Alarm 1. It also will spot the varmint with a red light beam. Alarm 3 is the coolest; when it is tripped two safe (but surprising) missiles will be launched at the now-fleeing interloper. You valuables will be safe, your cubicle will be secure, and your foe will be embarrassed enough to leave your stapler alone for good!
Just make sure that all seven AAA batteries required to power the Shooting Cubicle Alarm System are adequately juiced up. You can pick up one of these for $39.99 from ThinkGeek.
Office Space Box of Flair
October 25th, 2007 by Edwin in Gadget Gift Ideas, Office Gadgets
Here’s a little gift idea to help you build bridges in the office, and this box of flair would definitely go a long way in exchange for some goodwill whenever you need assistance to get out of a tight spot.
With this little kit, you’ll get fifteen flair buttons printed with fun sayings and designs. Such classics as I can set the building on fire; I dream of doing nothing; Did you get the memo?; Drew making his “O Face;” and even a picture of Brian, the man with flair. You also get a 32-page book that recalls the many hilarious moments in the film, while further explaining the buttons connections with the movie. With the Office Space Box of Flair, you’ll always be prepared to “express yourself.
A box of flair will set you back by $7.99 from ThinkGeek.
Battling R/C Dalek Set
October 25th, 2007 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, Office Gadgets, Remote Control Toys, Toys
One Dalek is bad enough, but you now have two to duke it out with your colleague in order to find a winner in your latest disagreement.
Each Dalek runs on a different R/C channel, so they won’t interfere with each other. They also yell out various Dalek phrases as you move them around (don’t worry - they also yell when they are hit). It may sound easy, but these little suckers are so fast, that scoring a hit is really a challenge. Get hit five times, and you lose (your Dalek will scream, “Aaaaaargh!”). Then, just reset and play again. For added fun, a Cyber Leader action figure is thrown into the mix. We suggest using him as a Cyber Cheer Leader! “Daleks! Daleks! Gooooooooo, Daleks!”
Each $69.99 purchase comes with a couple of 5″ R/C Dalek units, two control units, and a poseable Cyber Leader action figure.
Family Guy Charg-Itz
October 24th, 2007 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, Home Gadgets, Office Gadgets
The Family Guy Charg-Itz is a cradle that not only caters for cellphones, but it is compatible with iPods and other similarly sized electronics. It features a foam pressure securing mechanism to hold your charging device nicely in place while the charging cord runs through the bottom of the cradle, making your workspace all the neater. It retails for $9.99, and makes for a great gift for those who are forgetful of their belongings.
Walkstation gives you a workout
October 20th, 2007 by Edwin in Home Gadgets, Office Gadgets, Sport
Not at a gym, mind you, but at work itself. This standing height desk is hooked up to a treadmill, helping you burn up additional calories while you’re trying to be productive for your boss. One thing’s for sure - either sweat absorbing and fast drying business suits will be all the rage in the upcoming fashion season, or most people will go to work in the gym attire should the Walkstation actually catch on big time. My guess is neither, as only a select few will take advantage of this unique multi-tasking office furniture. It will retail for $6,500 when released - and unless you use it regularly instead of going to the gym, you probably won’t see a very positive ROI on this one.
