Ah, I've already replied to Bob's post and a few others before getting to this in my mail queue :) A very interesting night I thought and I enjoyed it a lot. Shame I had to leave earlier this time. That pub was small but quite nice, I think some of the regulars may have been put out that they were trying to watch the football and we were overrunning "their" pub but the atmosphere was good.<br>
<br>Nice to see the Sound Network guys there as well, I think there's a lot of crossover between our groups as I said and it's never very long before i bring up the subject of microphones, so apologies for that. You know you're all interested really ;)<br>
<br>See you at the Ubuntu Party later in the month if not before. If I can get into town on Saturday I may pop in to see how you're getting on. If you need any help fixing things up for LSC then I'm happy to chip in. Just let me know. I think it's a great venue for us and we should give a little back to them if we can.<br>
<br>See ya,<br><br>Dan<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 2, 2009 at 12:11 PM, Adrian McEwen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:adrian@mcqn.net">adrian@mcqn.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>No worries. Always happy to find an audience for my rambling about<br>
Arduinos ;-)<br>
<div class="im">> I think we've got alot of interest in Arduino, and i'm sure we'll have some future talks on it. At the moment<br>

</div>I'm hoping we'll get a hardware/Arduino hackers group off the ground<br>
after Howduino; as you say there's quite a bit of interest in this sort<br>
of stuff.<br>
<br>
Rather than wait for the USB shield, you should just hack your Tikitag<br>
reader to connect it to the Arduino, or buy yourself an RFID shield<br>
instead -<br>
<<a href="http://tinkerit.myshopify.com/collections/kits/products/rfid-kit" target="_blank">http://tinkerit.myshopify.com/collections/kits/products/rfid-kit</a>>. I<br>
got as far as opening up my Tikitag reader, but haven't made any serious<br>
attempt to connect it up to the Arduino yet...<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
