Last year I blogged about some really swank LED Christmas lights that can be controlled with your computer called Triklits.  Geekularity has a project that uses them to create a really cool progress indicator board.  Different tasks can be tracked and their status indicated with a colored light behind them.  They are using it to track various software development tasks, but with enough know-how you could use a set up like this for almost anything.  Cool idea, great execution.
