Just Got My Chumby

And it’s the coolest thing ever. It’s basically a touch-screen internet device in the form of a soft beanbag that runs widgets off the internet. It’s designed to be open-source so anyone can design new widgets to run on it.

I’m having fun programming my Chumby. Some of my favorite widgets so far…

• Facebook – shows the status of your friends
• Weather forecast
• Google calendar — linked to your personal calendar
• YouTube channel
• RSS feed for your favorite blog

Anyone else have one?
