I'm a "bit-head" so it should be no surprise that I'll be posting on technology, open source, enterprise, Android, Java, Python, Ubuntu - Linux, social media and anything else that catches my attention. I have been a professional software developer for over 18 years and hacked for many years prior to getting paid to play with computers!

Those crazy Sparkfun guys
Sparkfun is giving it away for free again this year! Last year their servers were so overloaded that I never got past the log-in page to try for the free goods, it was quite a bummer but a good lesson in server traffic. This year I am excited to say that I have managed to wait out the heavy server traffic and pick up a customer loyalty credit! :D I've been a member for 4 years so $40 worth of electronics gear will be great fun to have, I think I have an xbee mesh network coming up i my future, that should be fun when I add my GardenDroid and future home automation system all reporting back to my web server.
Thanks Sparkfun! [I'm sure I'll go over the 40... ;)]
