Familiar stuff... at the end of the day, I just end up doing the software side on my macbook. Like running a server, or some old console emulator. Media boxes are useful, but it's a bit like buying cakemix and making a cake, it's so trivial at some point you stop caring about the process and just buy a cake. As for hardware projects... I've never had an idea for one I'd actually want or care for. Things like a lightbulb that flashes when you get a tweet, and that reads it out loud when you wave your hand infront of it... pet feeders... etc I can do without. Would be fun to build but I'm so busy these days I can only motivate myself to make time if I like the end product I'm building, too.
