one keyboard.jpgTake a good look at your desk. Chances are, in addition to your PC, you've got a smartphone, a tablet, an iPod or two, and/or an ultrabook or laptop as well. The average person owns a lot of devices these days and while you can easily share and sync documents, videos, links, photos, and music through the cloud, you're likely to find yourself switching between a keyboard and a mobile device quite frequently throughout the day to respond to texts or check your calendar, lists, or reminders stored in your phone.

$9.99
Think Geek

A bit more geek than chic, I still admire the humor and utility of this 4-port USB strip miniaturized for use with your USB powered accessories. An additional quirky detail is you won't know whether you'll be getting a white or black unit, as Think Geek notes to, "please allow our robot warehouse monkeys to choose a color for you.".

Price: $249
Rating: Recommend*

That's why we're always looking for cheap and aesthetic solutions to alleviate clutter problems, headphones being one of them. In comes the MacHook from Workerman — a simple, sexy hook that uses nano-suction technology to snap onto the side of your iMac. More
