The phone rings, and I grab for the nearest Sonos controller, power that up, wait a few seconds until the wireless connection is there and hit the pause button. If I can't find the iPod controller, I may have to start the Sonos desktop controller application to then hit pause. While I'm trying to cut [...]
Amazing what kind of (bizarre, crazy or just plain fun) ideas some people come up with: a chap uses an LCD photo frame he's displeased with to create a digital clock.
The clock (i.e. the photo frame) displays pre-created images of the time, and he uses an Arduino micro controller to press the 'next photo' button [...]
This instructable shows you how to make your Arduino into an R/C interface that you can use for just about anything requiring remote control, including an R/C lawnmower:

This looks like an interesting Arduino-compatible board:
Thought I would submit this ultra low cost, stripped down strip-board Arduino I've been playing about with tonight.

Muehe (falls ueberhaupt) gleich halten lassen. Wenn einer von uns
muehselig ueber Zifferntastatur den Namen und die Nummer von in einem Apparat erfasst, ist der Eintrag an den anderen Aparaten nicht [...]
XBee modems are one of the easiest ways to create a wireless point-to-point or mesh network. They have error correction, are configured with AT commands, come in multiple flavors and can create a wireless serial link out of the box. XBee modems can be connected to a computer, and to an Arduino — there are [...]
I've been asked a few times already whether I could "make" some little lights for the LEGO houses built around here, so I gave it a try.
After clamping a 1×2 LEGO brick into a vise, I drilled two little holes on either side, just large enough to push in the pins of a 5mm LED.
This [...]
