SOCIAL: Composting containers

[Joel Young]

Does anyone have experience using composting bins? I'm trying to  
figure out what would work best for Olga and me: we cook regularly  
(very little meat), but we have hardly any yard scraps to speak of --  
the only greenery around our apartment is a few bamboo trees that need  
to be trimmed occasionally. From my reading, I imagine we'll want to  
supplement it with a lot of newsprint and cardboard to keep it from  
becoming a slimy mess. So assuming I've got the basics right, which  
bin is going to work best for low-volume composting? I've found a few  
that get good reviews:

It sounds like the first two don't work with worms, which is half the  
fun of composting, right? So I'm inclined to go with the last one. Can  
anyone impart their wisdom before I blow $65-150 on something that may  
or may not work for me?
