Here are some microcontrollers that ought to be suitable for home made projects like altimeters etc.
Most support I2C, except for the pro mini, all seem to have USB. The adalogger ($21) has an on board micro USB holder, will run on 3.7V and has a built in charger. It is intriguing to say the least.
For larger projects, the new Raspberry Pi Zero is interesting. It's most of a whole Raspberry Pi with a fairly small footprint. It might be finicky about power supply.
Enjoy!
