Hasta La Ideas

All Unitasker Wednesday posts are jokes — we don’t want you to buy these items, we want you to laugh at their ridiculousness. Enjoy!

Reader Blaine sent us a unitasker that is incredibly worthy of our unitasker Wednesday feature — the Gboard!

From the Gboard description:

The Gboard is a unique keyboard that will turbo-charge your Gmail experience. Simply plug it in via USB, flip on the keyboard shortcuts in Gmail, and you’re on your way to saving valuable time. The Gboard has buttons for 19 of the most-used functions in Gmail. Select multiple messages and star, archive, spam, or trash them.

Or, instead of spending $20, you can go into your Gmail settings (the link is in the upper right-hand corner of the inbox screen), turn keyboard shortcuts on, and then click on “Learn more” to actually learn the keyboard shortcuts that don’t require an external device to use:

The amount of time it will take you to learn the Gmail keyboard shortcuts is less time than ordering the device, waiting for it to be delivered, installing it, and then learning what all of the keys on the Gboard do. (And you won’t be out $20.) Best of all, learning the keyboard shortcuts keeps your USB port free for use with another device!
