As we've said before, Spring is the perfect time to toss out the old from your home office (responsibly!), and usher in a new era of organized and green living. Even if you don't have a home office, these tips can also be used in the workplace to ensure you're setting a good example for your co-workers, and taking the right steps to a more eco-friendly lifestyle. Let's face it - you probably spend more time at work than you do anywhere else (only your bed may see more action), so why not make it a little easier on mother earth while you're there?

• Go Natural - Bamboo is not only a renewable resource, it's also easy on the eyes and totally tech-friendly. You can buy charging stations, laptops, and even external hard drives made from the material.

But BitBop isn't the only one who's bringing the TV love to your cell.

Travel season is upon us, and I'll be the first to say I have champagne taste, but am confined to a beer-sized budget. Finding deals on hotels and flights has never been so important, especially with gas prices and travel costs through the roof! So lately, Priceline's "Name Your Price" feature (you know the commercials - William Shatner is the "Priceline Negotiator"?) has been looking more and more attractive, but I've heard a story or two about users who have been less than thrilled with their rooms once they've arrived.

My girl Petsugar has been there and told me about a site she found that deconstructs the rules and ways of Priceline's hotel selection process. Dubbed BiddingForTravel, this site schools you on some sweet tips and tricks to using Priceline, and now Petsugar can even guess (correctly!) which hotel she is bidding on!

Go through BiddingForTravel's helpful FAQs first to learn how Priceline chooses your hotels and flights, then start bidding. If it's all too much and you

As matchmaker to millionaires worldwide, Patti Stanger is pretty well-equipped to tackle even the toughest dating dilemmas. She knows a thing or two when it comes to good old-fashioned matchmaking, founding her own Millionaire's Club as a third-generation relationship guru.

You probably use your earbuds all day - during your commute to work, during work, and during your commute home. As many times as you pull them in and out of your bag, you probably don't think often enough about keeping them clean.

• Fitbit ($99) - Fitbit is the ultimate fitness gadget. First of all, it tracks everything - calories burned, sleep habits, steps taken, even the intensity of your workouts. Then it wirelessly uploads all of your stats to the web, allowing
