espresso accessibility in the home

Practical technology finds personal favour with me.
Perhaps it was the geek in me that was curious to read about the espresso machine hack, but it was the application and implications of such modifications (mods) that grew my interest.

There are many ways homes can be made more friendly, where thoughtful design can facilitate access. Perhaps it is time for such a service to be made available for technology gadgets. There might be two channels for such a service offering, gaining knowledge (moving down the learning curve) through the early adopters - the geeks who desire additional wow and ease of use; whilst also consulting on services suited for those with impairments.
