Three Well-Designed Products I Recently Purchased That Make Me Happy
Lately, when I'm getting ready to purchase a product I do three things: 1) Research, 2) Get friend advice (i.e. via Twitter (here) or blog post (comments here)), and 3) Price compare.
These are three amazing products that made the cut and make me extremely happy:
1) Fitness ball
This is my new office chair. Great for my back and core, and keeps my blood circulating in my legs. I highly suggest swapping out your normal office chair for one of these (at least for a couple hours a day). Grabbed mine at Sports Authority.
2) Omop by Method
Almost bought a Swiffer, but smart people gave me the tipoff on the Method Omop. It is a simple, effective work of art. Just velcro on the Method mop pad, squirt some great-smelling Method floor cleaner around, and your off to the races. Everything you need comes in the Omop kit. You can order online or get one at Target.
3) Jawbone 2
It's California law to use a hands-free device while driving. This law led me to join the cyborg Bluetooth-headset nation. Everyone I know that's in the know raves about the Jawbone, so I didn't have to do much research outside of price comparing stores.
The Jawbone 2 is super simple to use and it's noise-eliminating technology is wonderful. I have an iPhone, which is notorious for its low earpiece volume. However, when I use the Jawbone it completely erases this iPhone weakness.
It still makes you look like a cyborg when wearing it, so I only wear it in the car for calls, or when I'm alone in my apartment surfing the Internet while pretending to be interested by a caller's conversation.
You can get when online, or at your mobile carriers local store (most likely).
