Tools of the Trade

From keyboards to motion trackers, I've geeked out over a lot of tech lately! Join me as I share the gadgets that sparked serious excitement and boosted my productivity.

I have spent the last 48 hours awaiting the arrival of a new keyboard. I had beyond the socially acceptable amount of excitement allowable for a keyboard, apparently. This led me to think about how many other gadgets I have gotten over-the-moon excited about in the past couple of years. Here is my list.

1. DasKeyboard

Because it is the newest and the one that I am typing on right now.

"This is the keyboard, and I am the code generation tool."

2. LeapMotion

Because it is awesome and "magic," and I got in on the beta (my kids said the magic part). This thing is awesome — it let my kids, yes my kids, become Harry Potter.

3. Monitors — Monitors, and More Monitors

I got this multi-monitor setup working and was over the moon about it. They still rock it out now. I am thinking about adding more to the 3L panel.
