As handy as laptops are, being on one constantly does bring about health problems over time.
I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but I’ve recently had problems with my left pinkie of all things! I never really thought that the reason could be that I always worked from the sofa, so the position of the laptop was not really ideal. A month or so ago, when I could barely bear the pain, I decided to use a table. Lo and behold, the pain is practically gone!
What has this got to do with a 3-in-1 laptop stand?
Everything, actually, but here are a couple of essential considerations.
- Repetitive stress injury/syndrome
- Health risk from sitting down all day
For those who work on a computer all day long, these health problems may not arise until they’ve been doing it for years and years; so for many, they aren’t really concerned at all. But trust me, they will come up at some point.
So if you believe in being safe than sorry, you’ll want to check out the 3-in-1 laptop stand, which is currently a Kickstarter project. As the name implies, it has 3 modes.
Stand up mode
Sitting mode
Typing mode
Those images are pretty self-explanatory, aren’t they?
In any case, it’s the last mode that I think is really interesting. It makes for an elegant and efficient solution for working at a desk. And with the tube design, you can easily lug it around wherever you go.
The 3-in-1 stand also has a tablet version for people who work on their tablets a lot.
The project has exceeded its initial goal by miles, but it still has 45 days to go, with a bunch of slots left for interested backers.
