Despite the fact that Halloween only comes once a year, someone thought it a good idea to make a Halloween Ghost Computer Mouse to satisfy the needs of that crazy guy/girl in the office who is obsessed with holiday decorations.

The 3-button optical wheel Halloween mouse glows in the dark, supports USB/PS2, and has a resolution of 800dpi.

Also, according to the Fabstuff.net the mouse is “completely harmless and will accompany you on your journeys through the web”, so I guess there is no need to worry about any freak-accidents happening.

If you own an iPhone you have undoubtedly spent countless hours browsing through the vast sea of applications.  There’s virtually a application for anything you could possibly need, from finding nearby restaurants or gas stations, managing your finances, listening to online radio, and of course games to help you kill down-time.  But surprisingly enough, there has not been a basic spreadsheet application…until now.

Softalk recently announced their new application, simply called Spreadsheet, which does exactly what the name implies; it allows you to create Excel-like spreadsheets which you can then email through the phone.

Spreadsheets created with the app are said to work with Excel 2003 and up, will feature more than 50 functions, and can be purchased through the App store for $7.99.

God knows I love desperately need a cup of coffee when I arrive at work each morning. I also enjoy starting each day by quickly taking care of urgent tasks and projects, which is why my coffee usually goes cold before I manage to finish it. But thanks to the USB Coffee Warmer I think I might start saving a few trips to the kitchen each day. It won’t bring your cup to a boil, but it will keep it at a comfy 104° F.

Sure I’ve joked about doing this in the past, but apparently these people are actually doing work while running on a treadmill.

Sticky notes are a great way to leave little reminders to yourself. However, they are also a huge waste of paper, particularly if you share my passion for using entire note pads to make little stick figure cartoons. So why not extend the life cycle of your notes by using these Sticky Origami Note Pads which allow you to master the Japanese art of paper folding.

Halloween can be a particularly fun holiday if you work in an office that allows you to wear a costume, but many of us don’t have the time to go searching for Halloween costumes. Which is why I decided to put together a few simple and easy costume ideas that are fit for the office.

The Puzzle Table is a creation from designer Hsien Chang, who took the concept of sliding puzzles, and applied it to your everyday computer desk so that users can see what is stored within the desk by a simple slide of its dividers. Each of the baskets inside each grid are removable allowing the user to sort and organize the contained items easily.

I would fully support this happening at my office…
