    26 Things You’ll Probably Want If You Spend Most Of The Day At Your Computer

    Ring light — perfect for Zoom meetings andddd the best light for selfies, win win.

    1. A webcam cover just in case you accidentally join a Zoom meeting while walking around your apartment half-naked. Orrrr to ease any fear of that ever happening.

    2. A portable dual monitor for your laptop to make working from home that much easier. Orrrr since this is portable and super easy to pack away, you can work from anywhere – coffee shops, outside, library, wherever you like to get down with your laptop. Now you can attend Zoom meetings on one side and scroll the presentation docs on the other screen. Sweeet.

    3. A two-pack of blue-light-blocking glasses so you don't strain your eyes staring at your computer all day. Fewer headaches? Oh that's exactlyyyyy what we need.

    Promising review: "I was really pleasantly surprised by these glasses. I didn't expect much for this price point, but they do a great job of blocking blue light, which helps me a lot with migraines and eye strain. Liked them so much that I bought a second set for my husband, too." —June Z.

    4. A container of cleaning putty that's reusable and gets into all the nooks and crannies of your keyboard. The crud and dust stick to the putty, resulting in a clean workspace. Being an adult made easy AND fun, cuz like, who doesn't love playing with putty?

    Oh, and it smells like cherry blossoms! Store it in a cool, dry place so that it doesn't melt and get all gooey.

    Promising review: "When I first saw this product I thought 'no way is that really going to work'. And for the price it was worth a try. I got it within two days of purchase and it truly works. I immediately used it on my laptop keyboard and my PC keyboard. It really did pull all of the dust and whatnot out from in between the keys. It feels damp to your skin and doesn't really leave a residue, the smell is not harsh and really barely there (not like an antiseptic or harsh chemical at all). I really like it. Good product and can't wait it try it out in my car." —BRickard

    5. A memory foam gel pad to help relieve a bit of those wrist cramps you get from typing allll day long. If you gotta work on your laptop all day, let's at least make it as cozy as possible.

Just rub a little on your forehead, temples and back of neck for help with your headache troubles. So after you spend the entire day at your screen, this stuff will be right by your side to help you get some relief.

    Promising review: "I have no earthly idea why this works, but it brought me back from the dead after an 11-day headache. I found it worked better to rub it all over my hot pack, zap it in the microwave, and wrap it around the base of my neck. The aromatherapy was great, and it dulled my headache enough to restore my will to live." —Katie B.

    Promising review: "Ingenious little idea. I suffer from migraines, so I know how a little LED light can irritate you in an otherwise pitch black room. This product does a great job of dimming those harsh LED indicators that EVERYTHING seems to have nowadays. They are neat, not unsightly." —Jarom A. Daszko

    Promising review: "I've been looking for a paperless solution for work for some time now and a friend recommended the Rocketbook. After reading through reviews and talking to my friend, I decided to purchase the Rocketbook Fusion — for my needs, I thought the template pages would be very useful. I was super excited when the package arrived and immediately downloaded the app and set up my preferences. The setup process was quick and easy and I started using the notebook right away. Pages are very easy to clean and it was nice that a microfiber cloth was included with the notebook. I'm very happy with this purchase and already bought another Fusion notebook for a friend's birthday. HIGHLY recommend!!!" —Alycia Lewis

    Promising review: "Very useful! I have bought three of these over the last year. The first was for travel, for the extra plug-ins and to charge our phones. The second was for my office, for easy access of charging my phone without unplugging anything — plus, the nightlight. I just bought another for my 90-year-old parents. They work all the time and are a perfect size to fit things without taking up too much space." —kathyk

    Promising review: "These were EXTREMELY useful to me, I like them a lot. I have a very busy workspace at home, with two monitors and a tablet and big keyboard, speakers, NAS drive, etc., and it was very cluttered. But with these I managed to clean it up A TON. Now it looks much nicer, is much cleaner, and safer. Definitely would recommend getting these if you have a bunch of stray cables hanging around your desk area and such. After I zip-tied all of my big bundles of cables and adapters and such together and up and down the desk, I wrap these around the bundles for a nice, clean, less hazardous look." —Aaron

    23. A popular pair of wireless Bluetooth earbuds reviewers are saying are AirPod dupes *aaaand* they have over 223,000 5-star ratings. Cord-free, waterproof, and top-notch quality for a suuuuper reasonable price. Now you can go to a coffee shop for your afternoon Zoom meetings andddd you'll have the perfect cordless headphones to get through them.

    A single charge provides over six hours of usage, and the rechargeable case can have them fully charged in under two hours. 

    Promising review: "I bought these based on price. I wasn't sure if I would like wireless headphones or if they'd stay in my ears and I didn't want to drop major $$$ until I knew for sure. I figured for that price, why not. This brand is awesome!!!! Sound quality is on par with my regular headphones, battery life is amazing and overall durability is great. They come with a bunch of different soft pads for the ear part so you can find the ones that fit you best and keep them in your ears well. I love these headphones. I dropped one once, it was in the driveway for three days and still worked perfectly when I found it. I ended up buying multiple pairs of these as stocking stuffers. Can beat these for the price. I've had no connection issues either. I can get about 100 feet from the device it's connected to before it drops. If you're thinking about it, do it. You wont be sorry." —Crystal I.

    24. A laptop rising stand that's totally perfect for your work from home setup. Upgrade your space since working from home (the only good thing that has come from COVID) is thankfully here to stay. The stand raises up to 6 inches, perfectly eye-level, and it's portable and sturdy. So if you wanna switch it up and work from a coffee shop, you so can.

    Promising review: "I ordered this stand for my MacBook Air. I have an external monitor and needed to raise up the laptop screen so my cursor going from one screen to the other made sense. When the laptop was sitting on the desk, the cursor location was not obvious. Now, the cursor going from one screen to the other is seamless. Additionally, I like the fact that my laptop now has ventilation under it instead of it sitting on the desk with my external keyboard on top of it. The external keyboard stores under it now which opens up my desk without overheating the laptop. All in all, a great purchase." —Stacy Workman

    25. ring light so you don't look like you're in a dungeon while you're in Zoom meetings. Oh, and if you wanna make a few TikTok videos and take a few selfies, this baby is perfect for that too.

    Promising review: "I love the product so much that I bought it twice, once for myself and another as a gift. I'll be ordering more as the holidays come along. This light is so easy to take with you or just use in one space. For anything from makeup to perfect lighting for filming." —Avonna O.

    Get it from Amazon for $28.15.

    26. A thin, waterproof desk pad that can be used as a huge mouse pad and protect your desk from scratches and spills. It's also reversible so, I mean, it's like you're getting two desk mats for the price of one and we loooooove to see that.
