Make Your Desk Accessories Earn Their Keep
Does your business card holder just sit there, doing nothing more than…well…holding business cards? You need to spice up your desk with the Teamwork Magnetic Business Card Holder.
This tool-cum-toy has twelve magnetic men and poles that you can move around and stack for your entertainment. Whether they are using the poles to hold up your business cards, or simply poised on opposites sides of the metal base, ready to attack each other with the poles – like knights jousting on a medieval battlefield – you’ll get hours of enjoyment from playing with your metal men.
So, make those desk accessories do something other than sit on your desk and take up space!

USB Aromatherapy Oil Burner
Some people feel the need to own as many add-ons to the home computer as possible. Some people just like neat computer geek stuff. (myself included, I am not ashamed to confess that.) The latest USB plug-in for the PC is more than a little bit unexpected and unusual than most though. Introducing the rather nifty USB Aroma therapy Oil Burner.
The human sense of smell is possibly the most unusual of the five (or is that six, I think the jury is still out on that) because it actually affects our moods without the conscious mind realizing it. Olfactory neurons are rather sluggish when it comes to absorbing information, but also slower to give it up – which basically means that means the when a scent affects you, it will linger.

17 Across: A Pen That Does Everything
The answer: The Crossword 4-Function Pen. This little pen features an ink cartridge for regular penning, but also has a pencil with eraser, an orange highlighter and a PDA stylus. Each of the functions can be refilled and it simple to use. Rotate the pen to select which function you want to use, and click the button to extend the point. Use the second button to retract it. The best part is that the pen is colored in a stylish crossword puzzle style so people won’t be walking off with your pen. It’s made of aluminum and covered in a high shine lacquer finish.
So before you go to the office supply store and fill your desk with unnecessary writing instruments, consider the Crossword 4-Function Pen for $35.00. You’ll be glad you have it next time you lose your stylus or need a highlighter or pencil away from your desk.

Can You Please Unplug That Flash Drive? I Have To Plugin My …. Vacuum?
Okay, so I’ll step up and admit it right here in front of everyone. I’m a slob. I eat, drink and sometimes sleep in front of my computer, and as a result of my slobbing I occasionally drop slivers of potato chips or crumbs from my Sub Sandwich onto the keyboard, where it slips into the tiny space between the keys into a land of circuits and silicon.
In the past, if a piece of potato chip was causing me to have trouble using the ‘S’ key or the Spacebar, I first tried digging it out with a pen or perhaps a credit card. Finally, I resorted to turning the keyboard over and banging it on the desk like a bottle of ketchup that won’t give up its contents.
Unless you want to be on a steady diet of antibiotics from the stuff you breathe in whenever you “bang out” [...]
