I've spent some time this month learning about composting from my peers at work. I've been indecisive about what type of composter to purchase... I recently saw a story about a prototype countertop composter called Lomi. It's available on Indiegogo.com which is a crowdfunding site. It's kind of pricey ($379 for the moment!) and won't ship until December. It looks pretty impressive though- can turn food scraps and some plastics into compost within 24 hours!
