I didn’t realize it, but Leo Laporte’s been sitting on an exercise ball at his computer for awhile now. Today I checked out my Jaiku feed (kinda like Twitter) and found this:
My fitness ball/office chair exploded right in the middle of TWiT.
He’s fine, the ball is not.
I’ve mentioned before that my biggest fear using the ball as a chair is that it’ll pop under me. Initially when I heard this I was a bit concerned, but apparently Leo has been doing something on his chair that I haven’t.
(Leo Laporte has a podcast called This Week in Tech and a bunch more under the TWiT umbrella. If you’re not into the new-fangled podcast thing he’s The Tech Guy on the radio, too.)
As for me, I’m still using the ball, but not constantly, mostly when I’m just surfing as opposed to when I’m doing any work or writing. Just too low for me to type comfortably. Also, on warmer days it gets a bit… sticky. Soon the a/c will be on, that should help.
