Springflex UB exercise machine

by Edwin

springflex.jpgThe latest media statistics show that “four in five of all U.S. adults—or an estimated 178 million people—go online”, and the local TV news station has also stated that there is a new wave among teenagers, where driving-aged teens are delaying their license application and driving lessons just because they want to remain connected to their friends through the virtual world as well as blog online. Further data from the IDC shows that “the average internet user spends 32.7 hours per week on the internet”. Average that out and you get 4.67 hours a day, so you can imagine just how many hours a blogger spends in front of that radiation emitting screen. All the time spent sitting in front of the computer does not bode well for the human body, mainly because of the lack of exercise and poor posture that seems to be a problem for most people, which will result in carpal tunnel syndrome eventually. Enter the Springflex UB device.

Is it just me or does anyone else think that this USB Hub with Clock and Mood Light look like the Mac Mini?

The design of the USB Hub with clock and mood light is a blend of functionality and simplicity. It is a multi-function USB hub featuring an integrated 7-color mood light. The 7 soft colors will start to illuminate by taking turns the moment the device is powered. It also doubles up as a desk-based alarm clock, waking you up from your afternoon nap and reminding you that there are just three more agonizing minutes to 5 before you can take off from the office. The time display is backlit as well for your convenience.

The USB Hub with Clock and Mood Light retails for $16 from Brando.

USB Owl for your desktop

by Edwin

usb-owl.jpgNow here’s yet another desktop toy for you to fool around whenever the boss isn’t looking – this time, it comes in the form of an USB Owl that boasts a fair number of action combinations to keep you entertained. He is able to move his eyeballs all over the place (within the confines of his eyes, of course) as well as rotate his head in an attempt to elicit a chuckle or two from you. Unfortunately, I don’t think forking out $26 for something like this is worth it. Isn’t the USB Whack It so much more entertaining?

Are there better ways to de-stress yourself with a mere £11.95?

SpaceStation keeps things neat

by Edwin

I must say that wireless technology is very welcome – when was the last time you took a peek at the mess of cables right behind your desk? Wasn’t a pretty sight, was it, and chances are you’d find wayward stationary, nail clippings and even a booger or two that was flicked in that direction by an ingrate of a colleague. With our lives being so busy all the time at the office, it makes perfect sense for something like the SpaceStation to exist. Check out the product description right after the jump.

Han Solo preserved in a carbonite desk

by Chris

Han Solo Desk

I’ve been a Star Wars fan since I can remember. Granted, I wasn’t even born until a year after Return of the Jedi hit theaters, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate the films. This desk has to be one of the coolest custom desks I’ve ever seen, as it features Han Solo frozen in carbonite.
