We all get a bit stressed out sometimes.

Now here’s a great gift for computer users who worry about the environment.

The Eco Button enables computer users to instantly put their machines into ’sleep mode’ when they’re idle, which reduces the amount of power being used by the computer.

What’s more, the Eco Button works with some super-handy software that tells you just how much you’ve saved by using the Eco Button - so you can be green and save a bit of money while you’re at it.

And once you return to your computer, you can just carry on from where you left off - no need to restart either your machine or your programs.

The Eco Button connects to your computer through a standard USB connection; once it’s connected, download the software and off you go.

I’ve been looking at dry-wipe boards for the office lately, but so far I haven’t found any that are the right size and are magnetic as well as wipeable - not without spending a fortune, at any rate.

This magnetic black board is actually a better option than a dry-wipe board, I reckon, because for a start it doesn’t require any special pens - just a bit of good old-fashioned chalk, which is way cheaper than dry-wipe pens.

At A3 it’s the pefect size for the little bit of wall I currently have available - and being magnetic, it’s ideal for keeping safe all those little scraps of paper that have a tendency to disappear, like phone numbers and dental appointment cards.

It’s also a really handy product for the home; hung on the wall in the kitchen, it’s a useful place to make a quick shopping list, or hung by the ‘phone it’s great for taking down messages or keeping takeaway menus handy.

The Magnetic Black Board makes a great gift for kids, too… when I was small, my little blackboard on its easel was one of my favourite toys, and of course it helps children practise their reading and writing, so it’s educational as well as fun.
