I’m sure you all still remember the floppy disk right…that old storage device from the 80’s that always had slightly less available storage space then you needed.  Well despite most estimates of it having been permanently retired, the floppy disk has recently made a triumphant return after receiving a slight upgrade.  Thomas O’Connor of Detroit took the infamous piece of square plastic and recycled it into a USB Drive so you could store more than the traditional 1.44mb.  Nice!!

Apparently duct tape truly can fix anything!

Am I the only one who still loves the design qualities of the classic roll top desk?  Just found this one while on my quest for a new office desk.  The All American Cherry Emerson Cylinder Roll Top Desk II (could they have named it something longer?) has one pullout writing surface, one utility drawer, and three drawers behind the rolltop.

The desk is available from  Computer Desks N More for $1049.

If you drink enough coffee to warrant the need for an actual coffee maker on your desk as to avoid wasting any more time running to the kitchen, then this Desktop Coffee Maker might be your best bet.  The handy gadget lets you make your own special blend from the comfort of you own desk without sacrificing much desk space.

The Desktop Coffee Maker is available from Firebox for £19.95, and includes two black mugs.
