- patio11 17y agoThree Rings (the guys behind Puzzle Pirates) have something, too. My favorite feature was hooking it up to loudspeakers and playing a particular sound from their game every time the business made money, with the sound corresponding to how much money they made. They eventually disabled it, because the constant interruptions were starting to annoy people. This is a nice problem to have.

- somebear 17y agoMakes for a whole new experience. I'm still holding out for the first steampunk status board though.
- russss 17y agoThose are my gauges (although I no longer work for last.fm) - the code and design notes for them are up on Github: http://github.com/russss/arduino-gauges http://github.com/russss/arduino-gauges I also helped out with the analogue tweet-o-meter from a couple of weeks ago: http://vimeo.com/9352631 http://vimeo.com/9352631
