NodeJS Garden Bench

The need

Plants keeping warm

My wife wanted to start her own seeds this year but here in Maine, you have to do that inside and also make sure you keep the right temperature during the day and night. #RaspberryPiToTheRescue !!

Took a bunch of scrap pieces of wood that I had to make the bench itself so it doesn’t look pretty but it works. We just covered it with some painter’s drop-cloths to hold the heat.

Exchange Rules

Exchange Rules ~ Custom email notifications!

New to the Google Play Store (for Android) and Windows Phone Marketplace (for Windows Phone), Exchange Rules lets you set custom email notifications for your Android phone based on criteria of who the email is from or on the subject of the email.  Currently, this is only compatible for Microsoft Exchange accounts.

So you’re like me, you have a lot of emails coming in all day long for work so you don’t want your phone making noise each time a new email comes in.  BUT, you do want to know if you get an email from your boss!

Lots of action this year for CES
