I Heart Switch by Ami Kealoha
I Heart Switch may be a work in progress, but here's a chance to get in on the ground floor. Basically what we have here is a DIY show in which our host Alison demonstrates how to assemble all kinds of groovy knicknacks.
It's not terribly difficult stuff, but it requires some degree of competence. Imagine a baking show with some basic soldering skills required and you're getting there...
The pilot episode demonstrates how to construct a little gadget that's basically a talking box inside a dental floss box that allows you leave a pre-recorded voice message inside a picture frame. So you can leave audio messages with a picture.
The possibilities are endless; it could be used for anything from a love poem for your significant other to a "Dear John/Johanna," letter to your spouse.

Best domestic appliance goes to the "Katamari 01" speaker by...

Faster, Lighter, and Stronger: The New Tricked-Out Surfboards
On 5 December 2005, a day now known as “Black Monday” in the surfboard industry, the major manufacturer of the foam “blanks” that form the board's core, Clark Foam, shut its doors, ending an almost 44 year monopoly on the market. No one knows exactly why owner Grubby Clark ceased production (he cites increasing regulations and pressure from the EPA, who denied the claims),...
