mattb: developers, why are you not using a SSD yet? http://bit.ly/hvd1j4 - I endorse this message.

Small, USB-powered, reasonably-priced scanner.

"A collection of libraries I have written to use within the Arduino programming environment in conjunction with the Ethernet shield."

"Mounted into the lid, perhaps incongruously, are an illuminated button, a small display, and a mysterious module that sharp-eyed readers might recognize as a GPS..."

"In addition to the standard CPU, GPU, VRAM, FPS, Disk and Network info, atMonitor allows interaction with processes, setting up triggers, logging, purging RAM and more."

"Do you want to test your next Mac OS X-to-Arduino project without always having the Arduino available? Do you want to test you cool Processing application when your mate hasn't finished writing the Arduino sketch? Do you want to do test driven development of your Mac OS X based application without dependency on your microcontroller?"

"A very low cost open source autonomous blimp. It consists of an Arduino-based blimp controller board with on-board infrared and ultrasonic sensors and an interface for an optional RC mode, a simple gondola with two vectoring (tilting) differential thrusters, and ground-based infrared beacon."

Sells small, low-power, reasonably cheap headless boxes.

"ProxPick is a highly versatile attack & defense tool for 125-134KHz RFID systems (collectively known as Prox), about the size of a playing card."

"An evolving index of practical subjects for the Arduinotm and Freeduino microcontrollers"

"Instead of printing on bits of paper this 3D printer makes real, robust, mechanical parts. To give you an idea of how robust, think Lego bricks and you're in the right area. You could make lots of useful stuff, but interestingly you could also make most of the parts to make another 3D printer. That would be a machine that could copy itself." Want.

"Free set of software tools that enable designers to easily "sketch in hardware". With no programming at all and working in the familiar environment of Flash, designers can hook up a physical sensor (e.g. a knob) and immediately get that knob to control a motor or a video projection. The toolkit works with a wide range of sensors, wireless sensors, input from the Wii Remote, controls motors and LEDs, communicates with MIDI devices, controls sound, graphics, and video in Flash, and communicates with DMX computer controlled lighting equipment, all with a simple drag-and-drop interface (of course, programming hooks are provided as well)."

"An opensource library of discrete electronic components pre-assembled in tiny circuit boards. Just as Legos allow you to create complex structures with very little engineering knowledge, littleBits are simple, intuitive, space-sensitive blocks that make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together."

"MakerBot Industries creates open source robot kits that transform your digital designs into physical objects automatically. The kits are modular, modifiable, and built to be hacked."

"This keyring-friendly USB device lets you swap contact details instantly. Simply pull out your Poken and ‘high five’ it with your new best friend’s. Clever RF technology then zaps the info between the devices, so next time you log on to your favourite site, your profiles are linked. Genius!"

"A full reproduction of the original Roland TB-303 [...] The x0xb0x will never become 'discontinued,' because it is fully documented and released (under an appropriate open-source license). The PCB files (schematic, board, BOM and gerbers), firmware, software and panel DXFs are available for download. "

"The system, which Tikitag confidently boasts will "build the internet of things," promises to let you add an RFID tag to anything you like and associate it with a webpage or application -- for instance, a business card that links to page with all your social networking information."

"Personal GPS tracking"

"Lets you easily power off devices when not in use, saving both energy and money" Like this idea. Bit manual, mind. Wouldn't have expected it from Belkin.

Could be dead handy, this.

"Plug the desktop computer into the OneClick product MASTER SOCKET and the peripherals into the other sockets [..] Turn the desktop computer on, and the OneClick product instantly switches power to the peripherals."

"Second the XBox w/modchip. Easy to use, turns on and off like any device, install as big a hard drive as you like, FTP any video formats over to it (or play directly over the LAN), plays back up to 1080i."

"Encryption, Firefox browser, word processing, arcade games and yes even an operating system can be run off your USB hard drive... if you know how! - Version 1.0.0"

"Self-Described 'Nerds' Put Their Own Stamp on Famed Electronics Retail District"

"The intent is to provide our best recommendations regarding current product cycles, and to provide a summary of currently available rumors for each model."
