Blog2013 ≫ Number two son woke early, but then when back to sleep again

Good boy, still super knackered today though. I am physically aching after a week of disturbed sleep. And my back is hurting too. Feeling like a bit of an old crock.

My chilli challenge certificate is in at Chambers, I hope this means I'm up on the wall of flame too! Might pop in there with mum and dad this weekend!

Did not make much progress on getting the Arduino to send a tweet yesterday. This library1 looks great, it does the authentication and is all self contained, whereas the simpler way to do it is to have another computer to the heavy lifting and just send a simple request to the website to send the tweet. The only downside to this all-in-the-arduino method is I can't get it working. I might go to the other method just to try it out, might be easier to send pictures then too, and then try the all arduino method another day. I have set up a new twitter account just for this purpose - @ourduino - so feel free to follow it if you want door opening updates...

Number one son still has chickenpox.

arduino: Microcontroller, hardware prototyping platform, a tiny specialised computer.
