Maybe not something you’ll do in the coffee break but have a look at the AccelR8 project |
 A organ (when you speak electronics) is a device that flicker and blink a couple of lights in motion with music or other sounds. This is such device and there are two things that are interesting with it. The first one is of course how to build one and there is a piece of schematics on the linked page where it’s described in detail how you would go about to build one. The second one is just the looks of it! It’s built like a birds nest, which is quiet common when you build small things - not when you have hundreds of components on such small space!! None the less it’s very impressive. Very! Link: The electronic peasant’s LED color organ [via] |
 To make something useful doesn’t always have to involve rocket science - that’s something I’ve said before and I’ll say it again. Papydom has a small compact camera that is nice and thin, which unfortunatley means that it lacks a proper hole for a tripod mount. He writes:

 I’ve seen a lot of great custom cases during the years but I think this one beats most of them. Janos Marton took computer casing to a new level with his computer in a Ballentines whisky bottle.It’s not extreme in terms of either power or performance but it fulfills its designers wish to be small, handy and quiet as he already has a powerful computer when that’s needed.

I’m very bad in folding t-shirts. Plain and simple, it takes me forever to fold a t-shirt in what my wife considers a proper way and she usually comments my folding with But - it’s so simple.. Well, I just don’t have it in my fingers and if you’re anything like me then you will appreciate this instruction video on how to build a t-shirt folding machine.
God - it’s so simple when you see it. [click on the image to play]

 You can buy these LED flashlights for not to much money, but why buy one when you can build it yourself? The benefit of using LED’s instead of a regular glowing lightbulb is of course its efficency where about 90% of the energy is turned into light comparead to a lighbulbs 10%. With these LED’s consuming about 90mA you should be able to use this flashlight for about 25 hours before it’s time to charge or replace the batteries.As this curcuit needs 3.3v to function there is a IC taking care of the stepping up of the voltage from 1.5 to 3.3v. And no, you can’t pop in more batteries as we’re talking a pocket flashlight here. Link: DIY Led flashlight |
 For being a beginner in working with clocks I must say that Bob has succeded very well. This is a POV, Persistance of Vision, clock that works like this:

 Colin is convinced that XP can be run on the new MacBook that starts shipping on the 15th of February. They’re intel based for anyone who has missed the news flashes. He’s so convinced that he’s holding a competetion on who will be the first to boot the mac into XP.
