A place to put ideas on the tree to see what people have to say. Who knows, the idea might fall off and blossom into its own tree!

Bluetooth Message Center

I would love to have a device that detected my Bluetooth enabled device as I was walking in the front door of my house. Once it detects me, it would read my unread emails, news or any other content I set it up to read. The device would have a similar look and feel to that of an answering machine...

Bluetooth enable Media Center PC


It would be cool if someone would develop a Bluetooth program for a Media Center PC that would recognize your cell phone or PDA and start playing your favorite TV channel, music, or even read your email. It could have a registry of device IDs so you and other roomates could have different personal preferences...

Mailbox mail indicator


Wouldn't it be nice to know if you had mail in your mailbox without going outside to check it? I came up with an idea to place a wireless laserbeam sensor inside of the mailbox so when mail enters the box, the beam is broken which sends a signal to receiver in the house which simply lights up when mail is in the box. Of course it would have to be smart enough to know the difference between outgoing and incoming mail...

Grass covered treadmill - what??

I run on the treadmill a lot. I started to sick and tired of looking down at the boring black rubber belt. I also got sick of the way my knees and back hurt by the end of the week after running 20+ miles on the thing. So I thought why not have interchangable belts that simulate different terains. For example one that simulates running on grass. There could also be one to simulate track running. The list goes on and on, but I made a little sketch of the grass belt...


Homemade Jacuzzi Tub Cover




My Jacuzzi tub never gets used so I decided it might be a good idea to cover it up to avoid the herd of dust bunnies that has been pracing around my house. Check it out...

Vacuum cleaner stair attachment


How about an attachment that could be used to make cleaning the stairs easier. I can't stand using a tiny brush that gets caught everytime I try to move it back and forth. My attachment would adjust to fit any stair and riser size and have wheels easily glide it over the step using a side-to-side motion.
