Amazon.com: Egg Minder Wink App-Enabled Smart Egg Tray: Kitchen & Dining

The reviews... read it for the reviews.

"Ever been out on a brisk walk trying to work out the stress from the day and then suddenly been hit with a wave of anxiety wondering just how many eggs are in the fridge and what condition they might possibly be in? Well, with the egg minder those panic attacks are for ever behind us. This product works anywhere too, so we can check on our eggs from the John, or the back of a police car, or even from in the emergency room, because those warming signs to turn off all cell phones are just stupid.

The Eggminder will set all of our hearts and minds at ease. Our dreams of a more peaceful world are at hand. Thank you Eggminder. Thank you.

A cute example of the rise of smart devices in the home

Eggminder - Food / Health

The Eggminder, the first smart egg tray. Sounds a little bit unnessesary but is again a new product in the Internet of Things industry. This smart egg tray lets you know how many eggs are left in your fridge, you can watch this number at your smartphone when you are at the grocery store. The Eggminder has a built-in wifi connection and in this way you can connect with your eggtray by the smartphone app which comes with Eggminder.

It also keeps track of recommended expiration dates, based on when the eggs where placed. A LED light which is on the Eggminder reminds you of which are your oldest eggs.

Source I think the thoughs behind this Eggminder are very good. This invention works against food waste, which is a big and worldwide problem. The Eggminder only can't solve this problem, but what if we could see are whole refridgerator and pantries? It will save a lot of money and ofcourse food waste.

The Quirky Eggminder...the Wifi-Enabled Egg Tray?

Now here's what you should give to the person who has everything: the Quirky, Eggminder!  Now, they can easily keep track of when their eggs are going to expire...not that that would be printed on the egg carton or anything...

I suppose if you're at the store and you can't remember how many eggs you have, you could open up your app to see how many of the egg slots were filled.  But since this device only holds 14 eggs, for those of you who buy larger packs at Costco, you'll need more than one of these!

Seriously, anyone interested at $70?

This is so redundant, yet—not gonna lie—I am slightly kinda somewhat interested in it. Egg Minder is a product, backed by GE, that tells you how many eggs are left in your fridge via the Internet. FastCoDesign has a great article about it in the context of this idea of the "Internet of Things"—that is, that everyday objects and things have an Internet-networked relationship just like we do with social media, emails, etc. This is how Egg Minder works, after all: we know the state of our eggs through the Internet. Now, to remind you all, this is so redundant. But everyone else thinks the Egg Minder is useful for a particular reason: to highlight the potential of "Internet of Things." 

"Egg Minder has the potential to help normalize the notion that pretty soon just about everything we own will have some degree of self-awareness."

Pretty cool thought, once you've let it sit (in a tray) for a bit.

With our friends at Quirky, we’ve hatched an ingenious app-enabled egg tray, Egg Minder. When you’re at the grocery store it tells you how many eggs are in your fridge. It also lets you know which egg is the oldest in the tray. Head over to quirky.com/upcoming to check it out and follow @quirkyinc as they continue to make invention accessible!
