Title: The next step with #twatch....
Post by: ezflyr on November 29, 2009, 03:39:44 am
Hi all,

I bought a #twatch because I thought the concept was pretty neat. It honestly is, but still I'm finding Twitter to be really, really lame..... My #twatch spends most of it's time displaying LCDSmartie data instead. Something that I think would be very useful would be a stand-alone weather display similar to the #twatch. I think a unit with a nice graphical LCD displaying WeatherBug (or similar) weather data would be cool. It could display both current weather conditions, as well as forecasted weather conditions. The user might select the operating area (by zip code) via a web interface, for example. The unit might be called WxWatch, or something like that. Just wondering if anyone else sees a need and would like to collaborate on this project? I've got the tools to do circuit board designs and write code, and I've got a bit of experince with GLCD's.....
