Here is a cool idea that could give your baker a way to stand out from the crowd. Baker Tweet gives your baker a simple way to tell their following that the garlic bread just came out of the oven. In the new always online world this type of technology is sure to be common place in the near future. Have a look at the video to see how simple and intuitive the interface is.
"BakerTweet is a way for busy bakers to tell the world that something hot and fresh has just come out of the oven. It’s as simple as turning the dial and hitting the button. All of the baker’s followers get a Twitter alert to tell them that it’s bun-time. Or bread time. Or whatever.
In simple terms it’s a bakery-proof box that sends messages wirelessly to Twitter. The clever bit is that the baker can update their messages and things they’re selling using a simple web interface. Obviously not something that you’d do mid-bake but it’s an important feature for future-proofing the device."

This could have sooo many more uses than just bakers. Almost any business could use something like this and modify the messages for their own use.
