It’s not even fair how much Lundqvist dominates
AND now that his complete breakdowns happen on average only once a month… things are looking up. Would have been great to see valiquette step in for the against Vancuver. He put in a great third, but the damage has been done. Dubinsky picked up his much deserved first goal tonight… plus fight, plus assist. [...]
Arduino Web Scraper
Hi there. I am using this rss feed to detect, for illustration purposes, when the Rangers have scored a goal: http://www.totallyscored.com/rss/team/19. Using that, http://andreadulko.com/?page_id=246 singles out the current score and, when hit by the Arduino program, updates the database by putting it into the “scorenew” field. It also takes the score formerly known as “scorenew” [...]
2 Places at Once
Your have a stepper under your desk and enter the address of where your want to go. Once you “walk” the distance between you location and the destination, both your webcam and that of the target are activated. The idea is to emulate being two places at once. You can be on your way to [...]

What happens online doesn’t stay online
For Part A of m Networked Objects final, I’m translating online activity into the physical world. More specifically, hits on a particular site directly translate into the amount of popcorn produced by an air popper. For Week 1, I’m using ClickHanger as the site from which we’ll pull data. The current number of clicks is [...]
Time Capsule
Just as a side project, I’m building a place where users can upload content over the course of one week (music, vids, text, etc) and choose a date in the future when they can again open it.
With the 2008 Presidential election done, we can talk a look back and see what role amateur media and widespread access to it played.
How has amateur media production and new means of distribution impacted Election ’08? Let us analyze voter turnout. Millions of YouTube hits were supposed to draw millions of new voters off of their video game chair and out to the polls. An African-American candidate was supposed to bring minority voter turnout close to the impossible [...]
Tri-State Area Goaltender Effect
Going in, it seems like the Devils are gonna be a tough team to beat. While it’s always a rough game, the rangers late record against them has been completely favorable. It’s probably not even fair to talk about this given that NJ never thought about life without Brodeur. It’s actually really weird. I think [...]
Facebook Status Checker
I wanted to mess around with making something for Facebook because, you know, critical mass. I was wondering why there aren’t too many apps that deal with status updates, since that’s often what let’s your friends know where your are, what you’re doing. etc. I soon found out that the Facebook api does not make [...]
