Essential Geeky Desk Accessories
Since we spend more time at work than we do at home, naturally, you'd want to be as comfy as possible. That includes having all of your nerdy desk accessories within arms reach. I mean, who hasn't wanted to take a break from all those TPS reports and flow charts to play with their Lightsaber desk lamp for a few?
The Calcubot: More Than Meets the Eye
It comes in waves, but I'm definitely feeling the robot love this week. It all started out with the adorable kids parading around in robot costumes, then the timeless Robot Lamp Base and now — the Calcubot (or Robotulator, or Rocalculabotor) whatever you'd like to call him. This futuristic guy can calculate all your hard math equations and hold your pen for you with his squeezable hands.
Gift Guide: The Arrested Adolescent
If you have some friends who can't get enough of Hello Kitty lamps or tongue-in-cheek embroidered throw pillows when it comes to decorating their homes, don't despair, embrace it! Some of my favorite friends' abodes are peppered with fun accessories from Kid Robot, Upper Playground, Sanrio, and other hip and youthful stores. Maybe you don't want your pals to take the theme as far as they did at the Hello Kitty gate lounge in Terminal 2 of the Taipei International Airport, but I think some fun, arrested adolescent accents in a home can provide a lovely youthful spirit.
