    Wow. Are fridges actually becoming like this now? What happened to plain old water and ice? :(

    It makes sense. Everyone tends to congregate in the kitchen these days.

    A calendar app would be a must. One that can link to Google, Apple, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc. calendars. A lot of people hang physical calenders on or near there refrigerator.

    An inventory app might be helpful to. Maybe tide to a grocery list app.

    If you have a radio in your kitchen already music apps could replace those.

    A recipe app might be handy as well.

    Social integration with fridge is the next big thing. Imagine an app that posts to Facebook/ Twitter everytime you open it. You can program it to post an embarassing photo if the fridge is opened at night to help cut down night time eating. If you keep your Doritos in the fridge, you can program the fridge to only open “safely” during meal hours to cut down snacking. Of course, this idea is totally blown if you have evil people living in your household which most everyone does. Then again, who is to say fridges cannot have retinal scanners?

    That fridge is overkill – no one needs to be that connected.

    They laughed at the USB-enabled coffee pot. If you use an app to make your shopping list, or to check on ingredients for a recipe, this makes sense.
