Build Your Own Wireless Beer Pitcher Monitoring System

Posted by michael on from the friday-night-build-your-own-series-continues dept.

Willy K. writes "Technology comes to the rescue when disaster strikes and your pitcher runneth dry. These Cornell students have rigged up beer pitchers that wirelessly advertise to the central serving station when they are empty, prompting alert wait staff to bring another round." Add a few steins and you're all set.

    It's here. I was really surprised to see that kind of thing, there, but I guess it is a really diverse site!

    The 4 rules of karma whoredom:
    1. After writing a stupid joke write "It's Funny, Laugh!"
    2. Ask a retarded question about something that is painfully described in the article, like "Are they running 802.11abcdefg.... to run the pitchers?"
    3. Respond to your own post with "MOD UP PARENT!"
    4. Post a statement high up in a discussion that has nothing to do with the parent post to get visibility.

    You sir, are a karma-whore for using rule 4.
