Michelangelo's Wooden LED Clock
It is said that famed artist Michelangelo would look at a piece of stone or wood and see what he was going to sculpt hidden inside. Just like old Mikie, now you too can see into the heart of a chunk of tree. The Wooden LED clock is a marvel of simplistic design. Until you plug it in, it looks like a pretty carved piece of wood. Power it up, and the time glows from inside.
A simple three button interface will let you program your clock. You can then have the time displayed in one of three ways: always on, like a normal clock; blinky mode, where the digits flash every 2.5 seconds; or slide mode, where as the minute changes the time displays one digit at a time. The Wooden LED Clock is a conversation piece like no other. None of Michelangelo's statues tell the time, so that makes this clock better. See, a clock cooler than a priceless work of art - now that is a great deal.

Will Return Clock
Just post the Will Return Clock on your office door or near your cubicle. Anyone coming to meet you will see the sign and know you're out, and they will wait for your return based on the time posted. But then they will notice that the time displayed is right now, and you're not back yet. So they'll leave, give you fifteen minutes, and come back. But now the time has changed. See? It's brilliant; you'll confuse and amuse everyone. And if you do happen to be at your desk and someone asks you something, just point to the clock and keep on working. You'll be back soon.

Lighted Message Board
Have you ever left a message on the message board for your colleagues and they never noticed it and it finally ended up with a big quarrel? A conventional message board that lets you use those ink markers to write on it, would not be prominent enough to attract attentions. You’d need something that can deliver the message in a more prominent manner, such as the written message could be flashing or blinking to attract others’ eyes on it.
Thanks to today’s LED technology, here comes the Lighted Message Board that features LED lights to better attract attentions. Just write your message on it using one of the two included special pens and switch on the LED. The message will stand out either blinking or flashing. You can also set it to work in the single color or multi-color mode. It runs on three AAA batteries.

Walking Robot Pencil Sharpener
This is perhaps the coolest pencil sharpener ever to walk on its own. Just open its chest, insert a pencil, twist to sharpen, and remove your pointy pencil. By sharpening your pencil, you have secretly wound the 4" robot's power core and it will now begin walking toward you (or in whatever direction it's facing). The shavings empty into the robot's cranial chamber, which can be easily opened for emptying. If you don't have a pencil handy, just use the included key to wind up the robot. Either way, your robot will walk with delight.

Babble Understands Social Context
Herman Miller and their consulting partners Applied Minds and Insight Product Development hope to solve that problem with a new device called Babble. Sort of like a stomp pedal for your phone, Babble takes your spoken words, and synthesizes a "conversation" of babbling voices around you. The effect for you, is a mildly distracting burble. But for a co-worker who can't hear the other side of the conversation, keeping track of any information on a casual basis becomes almost impossible. Babble works, because it understands the social context of its function.

Pritt Correction Roller (2005)
Pritt's Correction Roller Comfort is suitable for quick, clean and accurate corrections on paper and facsimiles, without leaving marks or stains on photocopies. The roller applies dry, which means that the corrected area can be written or typed over instantly. The band width of 4.2mm makes the roller ideal for correcting single lines of typed or printed text. In addition to purely functional aspects, the design focuses on aesthetics, ergonomics and a self-explanatory way of holding the roller. Unlike its conventional predecessors, the roller is moved flat - as opposed to upright - over the paper. The colour scheme is geared towards the various functional areas of the correction roller and reflects the membership in the Pritt correction roller product family.

Office Game for Boring Working Day
This bowling game allows you to roll strikes, spares, and gutter balls on a desk or table. Players use the ramp to aim and hurl the steel ball down the lane; the ramp slides across the width of the lane to provide the necessary ball-release angles for picking up the dreaded seven-ten split. The solid oak lane has target arrows that provide a visual guide, and the pins are easy to set up, yet offer a stern challenge to both novice and seasoned tabletop bowlers.

In all other respects, the artificial blind functions in exactly the same way as a regular blind - ie turning the plastic stick controls the brightness, etc. As of this writing, this piece is made by hand, so it's available - but will take some time (and money) to create.

Stabilo swing click highlighter
The Stabilo swing click is a flat highlighter with ballpoint pen mechanism.

In this way, the highlighter can be easily stowed away without having to use a cap. With the pocket clip, it can be securely attached to garments and other suitable spots, thus preventing possible loss.

Scroll pen combines an easy-flow, ball point tip with a barrel that conceals a handy roll of paper. The very cool part of this pen is that you don't have to tear off the paper in order to write on it, but you can simply pull the barrel (bottom) away from the top and you then have a pen to write with and you can scroll back the paper into the cap to maintain a journal.

Once it's done, open the garage door and drive the car out using your keyboard's arrow keys. And if that pesky coffee mug gets in the way again, hit the space bar to honk your horn. But really, there isn't any traffic on your desk, so you should enjoy a wonderfully relaxing drive.

Office Clock Gadget
Binary started out as a way for geeks to master the world of computing, but binary is mostly just another way for us to help you confuse your friends and co-workers. Enter the Jumbo LED Binary Clock. Simply slap this stylistic one foot square clock on the wall or on your favorite flat surface, select BCD or pure binary mode, set the time, and voila! You've just created an Instant Confusion Device (ICD) that actually tells the time. Congratulations! For best results do net setup your ICD in your local IT Lab as the chances of confusion will decrease to the point of non-compliance. Now simply wait for the next peon to walk across it's path and stare in dis-belief as the thick sludge of neurons between his ears fails to grasp any approximation of the truth before his eyes.
The horizontal bottom row represents the seconds, the 2nd row from the bottom the minutes, and the third from the bottom the hour. Then the six vertical columns are each assigned a value, from left to right, they are: 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1. Just sum up the values across the horizontal columns for hours, minutes and seconds - and voila! Instant mad time genius.

Knicks Cable Holder
Sometimes good things come in small sizes, case in point: this small little clip – made out of metal, with a matte acrylic holding device, that attaches to the edge of your table and extends out by about half an inch. At the end is a small little round opening, that allows you to easily pull a cable through it. When you don't need the cable – i.e. take you laptop with you, or your iPod, or anything that has a plug on a cable (the options are countless) - the plug gets 'stuck' in the opening, which prevents it from falling down. Which means, when you return, you don’t have to get down on your knees and try to fiddle the plug behind your table, it falling down a million times and you getting aggravated.

Clock for True Minimalist
Sure, there are plenty of cool modern digital clocks out there these days, but this one is so beautifully simple that you definitely should check it out.
The ZER00:00 clock is so minimal that it doesn’t even provide a way to set the time. Simply plug in the battery at midnight sharp, and it starts keeping time. Conceived by Dutch design house WATdesign, the ZER00:00, the clock is comprised of a simple circuit board, etched with either a butterfly or tree pattern, and powered by a 9-volt battery which also serves as a stand.

Oh well, at least there won't be assault charges after you beat your cube neighbor with the ole' Swingline.

Robot Calculator
This calculator does it all. Not only does it look like a cool semi-retro robot, but it can add and subtract and multiply and divide. But unlike ordinary calculators, this one has hands and feet. The feet will let it stand upright and the hands will let it hold things (like pens, cables, or the included LED light).
There are also clips on its "head" to hold notes and a magnet on its back to hold metal things. But the coolest thing you can do with the Robot Calculator is beat up other calculators - see hands are for holding, helping, and hitting! So what if that guy down the hall has a calculator that can do natural log functions; your calculator can punch his in the display so many times, his calculator won't know a cosine from a fraction!

Cubicle Office Gadget
We all have it, what people call the 'personal space' or 'zone' - the area around us that if impeded on makes us uncomfortable. The Eclipse Office Partitioning System was developed to address the issue of privacy and lack there-of in open plan designs seen in workplaces today. Cubicles don’t exactly illicit hard work so Designer Marcus Curran wanted to create something for the not too distant future. A partitioning system that not only looks good but defines and protects our 'personal space'.
The system includes a desk, task chair, expandable hood, integrated speakers, and power all set on casters for true mobility. It makes me think of rollie pollies and I have yet to decide if that’s a good or bad thing. Could you work in something like this?

Shooting Cubicle Alarm System
The trouble with most alarm systems is that they are passive. Passive in the respect that they only alert someone to the intruder, but they don't fight the intruder themselves. Well, consider the Shooting Cubicle Alarm System a step in the right direction. Using technology adapted in Area 51 (by elves, of all people), this three stage system protects everything in your cubicle - and beyond.
Each unit has an ever-watchful motion sensor. The first line of defense is lovingly referred to as Alarm 1. When Alarm 1 is tripped two very important things happen. First, it flashes and klaxons to signal an intrusion. But (and this is the kicker) it also arms Alarms 2 and 3 using invisible wireless signals. Alarm 2 also has an audible alarm, but it is louder than Alarm 1. It also will spot the varmint with a red light beam. Alarm 3 is the coolest; when it is tripped two safe (but surprising) missiles will be launched at the now-fleeing interloper. You valuables will be safe, your cubicle will be secure, and your foe will be embarrassed enough to leave your red Swingline stapler alone for good!
