A problem I have is that I wear noise canceling headphones and work facing away from the door, so when people come by my office they can't get my attention. Here's a door-light made by Andy Lustig to solve this! Nice clicky red button communicates over radio to a string of LEDs stuck in front of my face. Excited for someone to try it!!!

@kristinmbranson You should hook it up to a website called "Get Kristin's Attention" that's only a red button, so we can try it for you! 😂

Worst case? Someone who really doesn't like you writes a script that auto-pings you via a POST request to the site according to a Poisson distribution with a rate of 1 hour during business hours. If you get a Poisson burst, it could ring like 3-5 times in a few minutes, and you could never be sure if any individual ring is legit.

Best case? A unique and more annoying alternative to email? 😂
