According to the BBCworkers who spend excessive amounts of time at their desk could be putting their lives at risk, research suggests. The Medical Research Institute in New Zealand found they may have a higher risk of developing potentially fatal blood clots. The researchers found a third of patients admitted to hospital with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) were office workers who spent hours at a computer. I goes without saying (but I’ll say it anyway) that this would also apply to designers who spend hour upon hours pushing pixels around the screen.

Time to put down the mouse and go fer a dander…
