The TIWE is an OLED watch where the white dots on its surface run around randomly until you hit the watch's surface. Once hit, the dots reorganize themselves to display the current time. Interesting concept except for the fact that the wristwatch is probably one of the most jostled pieces of electronics you own, thus this watch may never display its randomized dots feature.

Needless to say, this one would be a touch dangerous to make -
It took me a while to figure out how to build this. I took apart many things that you should not ever take apart (disposable cameras, lighters), and used the most dangerous parts of them in dangerous ways. Please don't try to sue me if you build a fire glove and burn your hand or point it in your eyeball and go blind, its NOT A SAFE PROJECT.Despite a very hazardous exploratory/design process, this guy did manage to make a movie-grade pyrotechic wearable. -Link

The iphone locoGPS module allows jail broken iphones to finally have GPS functionality. This module is in development and will be shipping in February. All software is open source and more applications are being written every day. The locoGPS module gives you the ability to explore all the benefits of GPS from a device that is small enough to put on a keychain.

Americans threw out just shy of three million tons of household electronics in 2006. This so-called e-waste is the fastest-growing part of the municipal waste stream and, depending on your outlook, either an enormous problem or a bonanza. E-waste generally contains substances that, though safely sequestered during each product's use, can become hazardous if not handled properly when disposed. Those products also hold bits of precious metals like silver, copper, platinum and gold.
