"I built an army of Arduino robots attached to the base of all of the major objects in my garage that can read any website and assign themselves DOM elements that most match their physical attributes, rearranging the whole space to parallel that site's hierarchy and stylesheets. (Did I mention they coordinate with each other over a custom NFC protocol I developed?)"

[I guess I went so ridiculous it actually sounds cool.]



Okay. I give. You've managed to flip my cynicism and imagine this into an article I would up-vote. If someone decides to do this though, they should at least use @jasonkolb's garage! Last thing the poor guy needs is that waved in his face.


Bluetooth would work better than NFC in this instance.


Agreed, though 802.15.4 (mesh) would probably be even better for an "army" of nanobots.
