I know that a lot of us aspiring entrepenuers work from home a lot, so we all have our own little spaces that inspire us to work better. Inspired by one of my favorite MacNN Forum topics, I would like to start a contest for the Best Home Work Station. Here’s what you got to do:
- Take a Real Good Picture of your Home Workstation
- Write a Post on your blog (at least 100 words) about your workstation and include the Picture
- Within the content, link back to this post using the anchor text - “Work From Home” and also link back to www.MrGaryLee.com
- Email Me with a link to your post to enter the contest
Here is an example post:
Gary Lee has started a contest at his blog to see who has the best work station at their home. I mainly work from home, so I have a multiple monitor setup with enough deskspace for my Logitech Keyboard and Mouse and my very chic Ikea Lamp. I went with an all white theme to match the iMac and I got the desk from ikea.
The winner will win this Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headset which I received to review from a now defunct gadget site. It works great, has outstanding battery life and pretty much syncs up with any phone out there.
Qualified entries will get a link back to their post including a thumbnail of their workstation to thank you for your efforts! This contest will run for 2 months or until I get a good number of entries.

That’s very generous of you! Too bad my work station is nothing too special though…
I’ll take a picture of what I have regardless and send it in anyway
Can non-Mac users apply
My home office is in purgatory right now though, not sure if my “office” office will apply…

Hey, got my entry in as well. Will you be posting occasional updates with pics to the entries so far? Curious to see what other people are running
I entered too Shawn! Looks like you have some competition!
Is this contest still running! I will really need to clean-up my workstation before I enter.
Ignore my last comment, wasn’t paying attention to the 2 month running note.
This is a great idea Gary!
Unfortunately, I already posted about something similar a while ago when I discovered a blog that features the workstations of people who submit them. They are posted like this with a short description that you provide.
Woh! Just found this! Can i just post a work “AREA” shot or does it have to be only my main PC? The problem I have is that I skip between two or three computers and they are more or less used equally.
Ah well in that case, I guess ill be entering my “test system” in the contest too. Main rig = blog, test rig = OCIA.net heh
BTW, will I need to resubmit a full entry, or can I just do a quick entry since I have already “entered” before?

Hey G-Man.
This is one of those topics that made me go find the separate trackbacks from comments plugin. I’m digging it, but I’m sure you already saw that post ;).
I wish I could take a picture of my setup at home
I’m at school..My set up isn’t very appealing in my opinion!
My workstation… I tidied up just for you:

As my boss took posession of my work space meanwhile I unfortunately can’t enter the contest. Right now my work space is somewhere between living room, balcony and nursery. At least there is a photo of my boss taking over my former office chair at http://www.vi-su.de/wer-hat-den-besten-boss/2007/05/31/
Good luck to all the other who entered the contest!
[…] Gary is a friend I met through the blog world of things as well, and a very interesting figure. Unlike me, he is an Apple fan. He’s the one who started the Technorati Faves Train, and recently he got into email marketing campaigns. He is also running a blog contest for the best home workstation. […]

[…] Way back in March, Mr. Gary Lee announced a “Best Home Workstation” contest on his blog. The winner would receive a Motorola Bluetooth headset. There aren’t many things I like about my Motorola phone but I figured that this headset would likely tilt the scale more in in its favor. So I entered the contest. […]
