Workspace of the Week: Kitchen work station

This week’s Workspace of the Week is Romap’s counter office:



If all you do from your home office is check email, surf the web, and take care of a few minutes of work, you probably don’t need a dedicated room for your setup. I like Romap’s workspace because it is incredibly versatile and perfect for a small space. An inexpensive ($36) Ikea Vika table top next to the wall serves as additional kitchen counter space when not being used as a work station. And, the choice to use a laptop instead of a desktop computer makes it simple to fold up shop and put things away. Thank you, Romap, for your wonderful addition to our workspace Flickr pool.


Want to have your own workspace featured in Workspace of the Week? Submit a picture to the Unclutterer flickr pool. Check it out because we have a nice little community brewing there. Also, don’t forget that workspaces aren’t just desks. If you’re a cook, it’s a kitchen; if you’re a carpenter, it’s your workbench.

Wahwah.fm Turns Your iPhone Into a Broadcasting Radio Station [IPhone Downloads]

iOS: Ever wanted to start your own radio station, but didn't want to go through all the trouble of actually licensing music or really working for it? Wahwah.fm is a an iPhone app that pulls your pre-existing music library from your phone and allows you to broadcast it to the world.


Wahwah.fm is a bit similar to the previously mentioned Turntable.fm with the exception that the station you create is all yours. Once you set up a few initial things you can start following other users to listen to their stations or start broadcasting yourself. If you have a large music library, the app takes a really long time to pull everything in, but once it does, it works like a charm.


You can add songs to a playlist with a swipe or a tap. Hit play and it starts broadcasting your music. You can set it up with permissions to use your location if you like. That way you can give all your neighbors a taste of your music without cranking up the stereo in your house. Alternately, you can skip the location part and just broadcast from nowhere. Wahwah.fm is a free download in the iTunes App store. Hit the link to check it out and start broadcasting your own station.
