A Mouse Pad and Weekly To-Do List in One

GeekSugar — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 10:05:24 -0800

I've admitted that sometimes I prefer low tech to high tech and prefer to keep written lists instead of digital ones so this product is right up my alley.

The Taking Care of Business mouse pad ($12) is a weekly calendar (the first page starts in January 2010) with space to write your to-do list in sections labeled "high priority" to "errands" and check boxes to keep track of progress. Each Monday, you get to start a fresh week with a new sheet!

A little bit of robot love sure goes a long way. If I can't seem to wait until I get home to get my robot fix I can just get one of these robot mouse pads for my desk at work. Available in four cool colors for only $6 each, I can spruce up my desk with robot cuteness. Do you love them or are they not your style?

Still yawning from yesterday's Spring forward? Look on the literal bright side: It's almost Spring! And that means Spring accessories.

Start by transforming your computer area with a nature-inspired mouse pad - one of these brightly colored Wood Grain Mouse Pads ($23) should do the trick.

If you have to be inside on these sunny days, after all, you may as well pretend to be outside.

Thomas Paul Moves From Decorating Pads to Mouse Pads

GeekSugar — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 11:00:14 -0800

I'm used to rhapsodizing over how much I love Thomas Paul stuff when I'm looking at home stuff, but the dreamy designer has done me proud by making Mouse Pads in his famous designs.

Each mouse pad is as functional as it is pretty - they double as notepads for scribbling - and they're only $9 each, a far cry from what his pricey pillows and other accessories normally cost.

Too Cool For School: Headphones Mouse Pad

GeekSugar — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 06:00:18 -0700

Mouse pads are usually just cute, maybe sometimes fun, but they're almost never this rad! The Headphones Mouse Pad ($7) is made from an original screenprint design - the medley of colors and the headphone print are TDF, right?

It's way cooler than the primary-color gel-wrist mouse pad I'm rocking right now, so maybe it's time to change it up. My mouse will thank me.

Brilliant Idea: A Mouse Pad That's a Note Pad

GeekSugar — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 13:06:00 -0700

File this under "why haven't we seen more of these": The very duh but very awesome idea of a Notepad Mouse Pad ($13).

I write on anything and everything near me, and flip out when I can't find a Post-it note, so this would be perfect for me. Though I'd be going through pages like gangbusters. Better order two!

Modern Cool: DWR's Aluminum Mouse Pad

GeekSugar — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 05:00:47 -0700

A lot of people don't like modern because it can be cold, but sometimes when it is that means it's really, really cool.

Such is the case with DWR's Aluminum Mouse Pad ($35), which is spare, striking and literally cold to the touch (except for the felt wrist rest, natch).

It may lack a certain patterned flair of say, a Marimekko mouse pad, but if you're edging away from using mouse pads because of their Office Space-type looks, then this version might work great for your own fabulous office space.

Juicy Couture Mouse and Mouse Pad Set: Love It or Leave It?

However you feel about Juicy Couture - I have some choice words for this laptop bag, and you guys also had some about this one. One thing is certain: They're relentless! No amount of criticism that their stuff is too saccharine or, uh, pink will stop them from making stuff like this Sweet Couture Mouse and Mousepad ($45).I have a toothache just looking at this, but perhaps you have just redone your home office area into a pink heart and flower sanctuary.

The Rad Flight of The Conchords Mouse Pad

GeekSugar — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 04:00:59 -0700

Granted Bret and Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords may not be early adopters to the latest gadgets, but they aren't totally clueless when it comes to tech - they've at least proven that they know difference between a DVD and a VHS! Flight of the Conchords always cracks me up, so when I saw this $10 Flight of the Conchords: Eco-Friendly Mouse Pad on Hippy Shopper, I had to convince myself that my desk accessories need a little makeover. Besides, looking at two adorably goofy guys all day isn't that difficult either.

Awww: Robot Love Mousepad

GeekSugar — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 15:00:16 -0700

I've made it abundantly clear that I love robots, but you know who else loves robots? Other robots. They go on first dates and get married and have babies and it's all very Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. I know that because of this Robot Love mouse pad - evidential proof!

I feel like I've walked in on a makeout sesh and I'm feeling a little guilty about it, but not so guilty that I'll look away. Check out the seller's whole repertoire of Robot Love mouse pads for further romantic inspiration!
