Every time I see a thing about the internet of things, I get a little excited, but then they don't really show exciting examples of what you should do with it. Outside of Lockitron and Nest, I am unimpressed with what's come out so far. But it's tough. The field seems so expansive that most people get overwhelmed with possibilities, but few bare any fruit. For my part, I've only had one decent idea in the space. I'd love to see a robot that cooks food for me while I'm commuting home. Possibly like a Zojirushi rice cooker that I can program to make stuff at a certain time, but with more flexibility and a web API.
