Gallery of Other People’s Desks

Galleries of Desktop Setups

It might sound a little strange to say it out loud, but I like to see pictures of other people’s desks.  Thankfully though, this is the Internet – where people have other odd traits like odd obsessions with furry anime characters – so when you stop and think about it, checking out other people’s desk setups might not be that odd.  Deskography is a website dedicated to showing the world where you work and has tons of interesting desktop setups that might even inspire you to change your own corner nook around a little ‘bit.

News Meets Photo Uploads and Link Shortening

A mashup of link sharing plus news aggregation, Virl is a place to shorten your URLs, upload photos, and spread the news. 

What would you like to do?

The first thing you see when you check out the site is this blue monster guy asking you what you would like to do?  You can tell it you want to upload a photo or shorten a URL.  Pretty simple right?
