Mumble. It's somehow funny when you get your software tips from a political party, but never mind. Mumble is something like Teamspeak (or also a distant relative of Skype group chats or Google+ Hangouts), only open source and for self-hosting. Clients are also available for OSX, Windows, Linux, and iOS. By the way, there are also efforts to integrate mumble as an alternative to Vivox in OpenSim as a voice system.

Sphero. Oh man, I want that thing. Why is there so much cool stuff now that I'm an adult? (for those who don't want to click: a robot in the form of a ball with precise control and the ability to use it as a controller - and controlled through apps on the smartphone).
