We have a winner for the Twitter Microideas contest

The winner of the Twitter Microideas draw was user BRAINTRAINNER with the Microidea “Turn old Tv sets into boxes to keep objects in, after emptying them of their components.”  Congratulations!

Thanks to all those of you who took part by sending in your microideas through Twitter. We received more than 400 tweets, suggesting new uses for everyday objects, and thanks also to all who have spread the word and spoken of this contest.

Here are some of the better microideas we received:
