I don't know how any cooking would ever get done with the Infinity I-Kitchen in the kitchen. This innovative refrigerator was created by Electrolux as the Internet-enabled refrigerator of the future.
The Infinity I-Kitchen has a Linux-based OS that lets you browse the web, and also comes preloaded with apps and recipes. I'm all for technology in the kitchen, but this refrigerator might be taking it a little too far. How is dinner supposed to get made when Facebook and Youtube are only a fridge away?
