Do you want your environment Ergonically Adaptable to suit your computing needs?

These split keyboards solve one problem ... but do they eliminate C.V.S. (Computer Vision Syndrome). Check out our website... http://www.nite-surfer.com

Soon we hope to have these out in many varieties of keyboards.... like Standard 104, Wave/Split Ergonomic model, Laptops, PDA's , and wireless RF keyboards.

However , I am interested to try this keyboard... for experience sake if nothing else. There are some other cool keyboards and sites on how to MOD your own....

Anyway check out these pages

Halfbakery.com is similar to shouldexist, but less full of itself, more active (but that will probably change) and with a somewhat different structure. There are a lot more interesting ideas on halfbakery right now; it's worth checking out. Specifically, the proprietors of shouldexist will need to watch out for some of the problems popularity has brought to halfbakery. (Stupid people posting lots of stupid ideas; flamewars; discussions that go off-topic; duplication; difficulty sorting and categorizing the ideas...)

Ideas are fun to banter around, but people shouldn't kid themselves that a good idea is really worth something. A good idea (vision) and lots and lots of effort implementing it is worth something. "99% perspiration" and all that.

Venture capitalists, for example, must constantly educate people that they don't fund ideas, they fund companies -- and there's a lot more to a company than an idea. Ideas, I'm sad to say, are a dime a dozen; people willing, able, and committed to carrying them out are much more rare.

I imagine sites like halfbakery and shouldexist are more useful not as "think tanks" but as ways for people interested in new ideas to meet each other.

You mean something like this?

engineers never lie; we just approximate the truth.
