Description

Our company is Armchair World and our "dot com" name is armchair.com ™. We have been on the Internet since 1995. We chose the name Armchair World to metaphorically make the connection between being at your computer (the armchair) and exploring the world by way of the Internet. By making this metaphor we are not advocating a passive approach to experience and exploration. Rather we view the Internet as a portal to first hand experience and the "armchair" as representing convenience in doing your research. In fact we at Armchair World are runners and Yoga practitioners who believe seriously in staying fit. Our topics are diverse and our articles are written by individuals with specific expertise in the fields they write on. We have sections on travel, cuisine, psychiatry, science, self defense and history. We think our take on these topics is unique. In one respect we're like a magazine; however, unlike a magazine many of our visitors don't come through our front page. Those using search engines generally come to a part of Armchair World dictated by their particular interests. We chose to keep our separate topic areas under one roof so our visitors could take advantage of "search serendipity". You may be looking for a food recipe and also find just the answer to your travel needs or learn how a rainbow is really formed. Initially, we formed the Company Store to provide a source for a few hard to find items requested by our visitors. We then expanded little by little and now carry a fairly broad range of products - some even by our own design and manufacture. We take Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discovery, have an 800 number for ordering and have a shopping cart system to make your shopping experience a snap. inside ™ with our Armchair World designed and manufactured table top water fountains, fountain kits and fountain accessories. -Expand your educational horizons with our science products including our own grating spectroscope kit. -Prevent or relieve carpal tunnel syndrome with our patent-pending Computer Armrest. -Become a sourdough baking expert with a real sourdough starter, a crock to keep it in and books that explore sourdough cooking. -Enhance your gourmet kitchen with our hard-to-find bakeware, baking utensils, kitchen utensils, gadgets, cooks' tools and our own designed and manufactured cookbook holder.
