Geek Tip: Make Your Workstation a Little More Ergonomic
It doesn't take much to make your home workstation a little more body friendly. So before you head back to school this Fall, add a few ergonomic touches to your home office. I have professed my love for the Ikea Dave Laptop stand many times before, so if you must work in front of the tube (like yours truly), put it on a stand and not on your lap!
The Herman Miller Embody Chair Feels Good All Over
When furniture designer Herman Miller sent me one of their latest and greatest creations, the Embody Chair — which is both body and blogging friendly — I couldn't wait to see if it felt as good as it looked.
With the help of physicians and professionals in such fields like biomechanics, vision, physical therapy, and ergonomics, designers Jeff Weber and Bill Stumpf created the Embody Chair with the office worker in mind, therefore making sure it was jam-packed full of health-positive benefits.
What instantly struck me about this chair was the fact that its entire backing looks like a real spine, with vertebrates and all.
Feast Your Eyes (and Arms) on This Wrist Rest
Sure, I bet you have a black or other primary colored wrist rest, and it suits you just fine. But this is geeksugar, and I'm not interested in plain peripherals! I'm dazzled by this Wrist Rest Set ($11) and its turquoise geometric pattern.
Geek Gear: Ergonomic Mouse
About a week ago I asked you readers to help me find an ergonomic mouse that's both hand and eye friendly. My mom uses a simple mouse she bought with her laptop and is constantly bugging me about finding her a better option.
dali137 bookmarked this Logitech TrackMan Wheel, which seems to be a favorite among computer users seeking an ergonomic balance.
The BalanceBall Is Good For Your Back And Your Butt
Anything that helps me get in shape while sitting down is something that grabs my attention because unfortunately, I am sitting at my desk for at least 10 hours a day. The BalanceBall Chair is not your conventional office chair. Designed with help from the chiropractic expert Dr.

Geek Out: Ergonomic Mouse
Anyone who spends more than 4 hours a day at the computer knows it's all too easy to cramp up your fingers and then to feel finger, hand and wrist pain. It's no wonder that Carpal Tunnel Syndrome has been called a geek's worst nightmare.
For that reason, I've been on the hunt for a nice, ergonomic mouse that's both hand and eye friendly.
Linea Laptop Stand: Simple And Ergonomic
We all know the importance of using laptop stands to keep our laptops off our laps — they keep our machines cool, protect us from fears of WiFi's potential health risks and the many infertility risks hot laptops pose for men.
I'm partial to simple stands and trays that were designed for use in bed or on the couch, but Gabriel Kornreich's Linea is equally promising. It offers a simple ergonomic tweak to make your tabletop laptop use more comfortable.
Maximize Your Dorm Room Space With a Laptop Shelf
There's no fighting it — back to school time is here. I've already shown you ways to stylishly carry your laptop, ways to make your studying environment more ergonomic, and which gadgets to toss in your new Fall bag, so here's a simple and cheap way to keep your dorm nice and neat.
From Ikea (one of my favorite places to shop, by the way), this PS Laptop Workstation ($60) allows you to get your term paper written without having to use your bed as a work station, and keeps all your desk essentials in one compact space.
Earphones That I Still Can't Believe Are Only $50
In my day, I've tested out my fair share of earphones. Oddly enough, I'm not one of those people that can wear Apple's standard earphones — call it abnormally shaped ears, I don't know, I just can't wear em'. I definitely have a top three list of earphones that rock my world, but the problem is, they are waaay too expensive.
Higher Priced and Hotter or Cheaper and Chicer?
The $25 Dave laptop table from Ikea still holds a special place in my heart — as well as a special place in both my bedroom and living room (tee-hee). But look out Mr. Dave, there's a sexier laptop stand in town and he's popping up at Target stores across the country. Unlike the Dave laptop table, the Ergonomic laptop desk from Target is made of metal in a laminate walnut finish, which you'll pay for with the table costing $50.
