Energy management for refrigerators

Energy

Our fridge is one of the most power-hungry appliances in our home, and depending on its age, it may be costing you enough in power every year that a new one would pay for itself in a short time. A fridge will use anywhere from 100 to 400 watts depending on size, an average modern fridge will use 180 watts. Thanks to recent improvements in insulation and compressors, today's refrigerators use much less energy than older models. With the refrigerators we have now, we can maximize the energy and savings without sacrificing the features that we want.

Outsourced private chef jobs

Outsourced

Grocery shopping can be a drag - but what if someone else did all the dirty work for you? What if you have a Chef that can plan and cook meals for you. The food is delivered to you everyday so you no longer need to worry about your meals. Meal plan can be set according to your preference. Can set a budget limit on how much the meals will cost. Typical restaurant delivery will always be in style, but in reality, most of the time, we do not have enough time to prepare a decent meal for ourselves.

Fun effects of drugs

Fun

Let's take away all the nasty effects of drugs and keep only the fun stuff. Although, this is not the right way to start off this article but let us now go through the fun effects of these drugs. Intense high, happiness, confidence boost and creativity are some of the good effects of drugs. It would be nice to have a drug that could copy the effects of illegal drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, heroine, etc. but without the harmful effects. People can enjoy drugs without having brain damage or dying. The person who invents this drug definitely deserves a Nobel prize.

Light switch with home floor plans

Light

When you have a panel full of light switches, it can be challenging to remember which is which. The light switch for home floor plans switch offers an easy solve. The switches are modified according to the floor plan of the room and operate accordingly. So in a single glance you know which switch controls what. It'd still be cool to control them with a panel like this, though. The idea of knowing which light is on without knowing the room and only by connecting what you see to the light switch is gooooooood. At least that is what most product designers want to achieve in their designs; intuitive connection between user and object.

House keeping website

House

In this economy, sometimes both parents need to work to secure the finances of the family. But at the same time, it is also very difficult to find help with the household tasks and babysitting needs. An easy way could be through a website that allows you to employ housekeepers, nannies or babysitters. Background checks are automatically done by the website. The system cross-references the profile of the applicant with any criminal database. A special algorithm is used to assess if the person is a threat or legit.

Save the planet website

Save

We all need a website that could show us a win-win-win way to get rid of clutter, help others and do your bit for the environment by 'recycling' anything from left over knitting wool to an old washing machine. Let us all work on the basis that one man's rubbish is another man's gold, and enable you to see what unwanted stuff is up for grabs in your area. Maybe give us also a practical guide to recycling - where we can buy or create great recycled gifts, such as circuit board coasters and camera bags made of belts.

Art appraisal

I have to say that the price of art nowadays is getting ridiculous. Some of the paintings look like it was made by a four year old but still command a high price. I believe price should be driven by public interest. A good way to measure this is through a website that shows paintings or sculptures and asks how much you'll pay for it. After you've set you're price the website will display the actual price of the material. The price of the public appraisal vs the actual price is compared. The higher the difference the more absurd the price of the art is.

Simplified hiring process

It's a question job seekers constantly ask - why isn't salary always listed on a job posting? With the increase of online ads and internet postings there has been an increase in the number of employers that are publicly announcing their salaries or benefits packages online. Compensation and benefits will now be shown in the job advertisement. The applicant will no longer have to go through the exams and interviews if the offer is not acceptable to them. Saves time and effort for both the company and the applicant.

Language translation software

Language

While it won't translate documents or web pages for you, you can always type in words in languages you don't understand and see meanings, contextual translations, and other documents around the web where the word is properly used so you can get a feel for how it's used. It also doesn't offer the spoken word capabilities of other services, so it's probably not best used for quick words or phrases that you may encounter elsewhere, or things like tweets and Facebook posts made by your friends in other languages.
