This might not be what you want to hear (i.e. too little tech), but here's a list from Bruce Sterling's talk at Reboot 11 (2009) [1] that stuck with me: * Number one, a bed. You're spending a third of your life in the thing. * Get a chair. I shouldn't have to tell people who work with computers to get a chair. * (things that go on your skin like clothes and cosmetics) * Apart from that, beautiful things, emotional things, tools. His (minimalist) message is to get rid of everything else.
