The DIY Doggy Geek Lamp – Let Your Dog Shine
I have long been a fan of home electronics hobby stuff. This doesn't mean; however, that I am anywhere near being able to build anything other than software stuff on my computer.

Screw Your Workstation – Get A Cockpit Style Workstation Instead

LightLeaf: Revolutionary Paper Thin Light Source
Reading books isn't something my schedule allows, but I always have a good one with me for long travels or when I'm just sitting around at an airport.

Not so long ago I bought myself one of those kitchen touch lamps and if I touch it for just a brief period of time it goes on and if I hold onto the frame it dims up and down. It was one of those buys that I just knew I was going to save a lot of energy on. Not so much through, the electricity it ge ...
