Great Products: 3M Command Strips

Command Strips
I don’t know if you’ve assimilated another 3M product into your life, but I have added the Command strips to my office arsenal. The ubiquitous 3M Post-it pads are great for… lots of stuff, their tape is just as ubiquitous, and the command strips are great. They have cable cord holders which keep the underside of my desk more organized, and what’s even better is that I can mout the wireless mouse and keyboard receiver I have underneath my desk with them: no screws, no clips, just two Command Strips. Smart products by a smart company.

The way the Command Strip works is brilliant. It is like foam with a sticky surface on both sides, and when you are done sticking whatever you’re sticking where it is stuck, you pull one end of the sticky tab and it comes off the wall, desk, window or surface you have applied it to [see the video at the site link at the beginning of this article].

Just a side note and piece of trivia: you may have 3M products in your mouth right now, they’ve got a dental division that makes crowns and adhesives. Wouldn’t it be cool to have a 3M Command Denture Strip? 🙂 Oh, and they have them at Amazon.com – what’s funny is this: the text says used & new. I’m going to stick with the new ones 🙂
