bell on technabob...

Here’s a fun little holiday project for you mechanically-inclined folks out there. This strange looking contraption connects to your computer and rings a little bell every time a visitor hits your website.

With a few bucks worth of off the shelf parts, an Arduino board, a USB cable and a little code, you too can…

Watch and learn…

Funny thing is… I’m pretty sure I’ve been a customer of all of these companies at one point or another.
