merry christmas

In imported on 26 December 2006

A day late, and a dollar short my mum used to say. Well, Merry Christmas anyway!

I made it down to San Jose for Christmas again this year in time to celebrate with my extended family on the 23rd (as they all had “other arrangements” for Christmas Day). On Christmas Day, my immediate family and I spent the day opening presents, then drove up to San Francisco for a wonderful dinner at a cozy Italian place downtown.

I won’t give a list of presents, but Santa pulled through this year with a gorillapod that is going to make a perfect addition to my camera bag.

Since we went to the city for Christmas dinner, we are having our “real” dinner tonight, complete with a ham and the whole bit. It looks something like this:

I can’t wait!

check this out, a guy controls his roomba with his Wii remote. Pretty sweet. Oh, and sweet gorillapod!

I’ve seen the roomba deal with a macbook pro. It used the harddrive motion detectors so you tilt the MBP to turn the roomba.

Oliver – that’s way cool!

James – I think that’s what the code from the link Oliver sent does, it looks like it uses a perlscript and AMS Tracker. I want to try to control something with my MBP!
