The electric table is "decorated" with electrical outlets on all sides and mixes electronic aesthetic with furniture and function. As the designer Broberg and Ridderstrale points out, this encourages the integration of gadgets in our homes.
"Depending on how it is used, the electrical appliance turns into "electro-decoration," says the designer.
Power source issues are a big deal at my house and at my office, so I am naturally intrigued by the idea of being able to hook up my phone and computer right at my desktop. I'd prefer the outlets be hidden under the table top, but this is still a clean way to avoid the ugly black surge protector - assuming this table has a protector built in.

One thing I loved about college lecture halls & libraries were the tables like this, with outlets coming out of everywhere. I have power cables hanging off my tables like wild vines, and something like this would be very handy.
1I was thinking the same thing Bean! And if your like me, you can never have too many outlets!
