It's not just me

Neil put me onto this guy who is also doing monitoring of his cat water bowl. Unlike my way of doing it, he seems to be doing it without any probes in the water, which would make refilling the water bowl a lot less fiddly, although adds the requirement to have a rig above the bowl.

This ultrasonic sensor thing sounds very interesting.

I foresee the soldering iron making a reappearance in the near future...

Asterisk Gateway Interface 1.4 and 1.6 Programming

Asterisk Gateway Interface 1.4 and 1.6 Programming

I received an email out of the blue recently from someone related to Packt Publishing, the publisher of Asterisk Gateway Interface 1.4 and 1.6 Programming, asking me if I'd like a review copy of the book.

This is the second unsolicited book review request I've received now. I just wish I had more time/mental energy to read books!

I'm going to make a concerted effort to read this one and write a review of it, because AGI is something I'm moderately interested in. AGI is what makes a lot of computer-telephony integration really possible with Asterisk, and CTI done right is something I'm particularly interested in.

I was also given some sample content and encouraged to post it. Based on this sample content, the book sounds like it should be good.
