My office (and especially my desk) usually looks like it’s been in the middle of a war zone. With all the paperwork, manuals, books and guides piled up on my desk, it’s probably the last place I’d consider hiding under for protection from severe weather or big heavy things that go boom.

Gunnar, a furniture company in Calgary, AB, has created the Personal Protection Pod (or PPP). While their primary focus has historically been on high end office furniture, the PPP has been designated as “anti-terrorist technology” by the Department of Homeland Security.

If nothing else, check out the videos on the Gunnar website to watch the PPP being subjected to bomb blasts and attempted crushings.

It might even stand up to all the SharePoint manuals I have strewn across my desk.
