Everyone has to deal with stress at one time or another, so having a few tools inside the desk to pull out for a stress-break can be helpful (as well as giving your eyes a break from the computer screen). These are quick, easy, and not to mention fun ways to relax yourself throughout the day.

Spring has officially begun and if you're not yet seeing green in your part of the world, then who's to stop you from jumpstarting the season with some green accessories for the home office. Bring on the green brigade!

A laptop sleeve is not only protective insurance against scratches and dings, it's also an opportunity to showcase a little fashionable personality, especially when you design and construct the accessory yourself like this rivet-ing little number from Oh Happy Day...

Not that there was ever many color choices for Apple laptop owners to choose from, at least not since the multi-color toilet seat shaped iBooks.

Now that Skyfall has officially made its way to Blu-ray and DVD, I've had a chance to re-watch the latest James Bond flick and gawk at all of the beautiful... work spaces. What, did you expect me to say Daniel Craig?

I highly recommend Grant Thompson's Random Weekend Projects series over at YouTube for some inspired how-to projects. Where else can you learn how to "light a fire with your pee" and "how to make a battery using pennies"? His latest project is a bit more down to earth, outlining how to take that tablet screen video and blow it up to a 50" screen using just $5 in parts...
