Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

I wrote tweetscreenr.com to fetch articles from my twitter feed, and convert it into an RSS feed. The initial use case was to follow AI researchers on twitter and get notified whenever they post a link to an arxiv.org paper. Works well for me - I get all the news from Twitter, minus all the politicized/opinionated crap.
