SURF away, but don't go hungry. - S. Mahinsha

You are busy playing that addictive game your neighbour's kid told you about. And you are hungry. You don't want to leave your computer. What do you do?

You don't have to bother a loved one to hold your plate or keep running between the dining table and your computer; you can just get yourself a keyboard food tray (http://www.yankodesign.com/product_info.php?products_id=1275).

It is a housing for your keyboard, over which you can keep your plate of food. But: you must know touch-typing, no hunt and peck; and, no more banging on the keyboard and pumping your fists shouting "Yesssss!"

And if you are on a long commute and you like your cuppa just that hot, you will like the programmable plug-n-heat thermal auto mug

www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp? order_num=-1&SKU=13391343&RN=487 ). Auto presets and auto shut-off and, that most important feature of any respectable gadget, an LCD display, are part of the package.

If you are a geek and you like food, you will either be a gourmet or a gourmand. And just in case you don't know the difference between the two (it is most unlikely, but you will know why this build-up), you can check out the Merriam-Webster USB Dictionary & Thesaurus Portable Storage Device (http://www.franklin.com/estore/dictionary/MWD-170/).

Happy surfing!

N. Nagaraj
