Here’s a summary of the features that I’ve added to my microwave:

• Re-designed touchpad
• Nicer sounds
• Clock is automatically updated from the internet
• Can be controlled with voice commands
• Can use a barcode scanner to look up cooking instructions from an online database
• There weren’t any online microwave cooking databases around, so I made one: http://microwavecookingdb.com
• The microwave has a web page so you can control it from your phone (why not), and set up cooking instructions for products
• Tweets after it’s finished cooking something (See https://twitter.com/rbmicrowave)

Next: the refrigerator? How about the thermostat?
