WTF? Hot Pants?

Take Control Of Your Holiday Displays With Griswold

“Wouldn’t it be cool if you could control your

Christmas lights from your iPhone?” That simple
question, posed in passing eleven days ago by a
good friend, set off a flurry of activity which has
become Griswold.app (for the iPhone/iPod touch)
and Griswold Server (for OS X Leopard, Windows
and Linux/BSD). Both are being released here
with full source to each and you may just be able
to download it from the App Store by the end of the
week as well.

If you are one to deck the halls…and the family room…and the kitchen…and the roof then you know how difficult it can be controlling all those displays. Timers are somewhat effective, but are always out of sync with each other. Simple RF remotes provide better control but must be in range or have line-of-sight to work. It really would be cool to be able to control these creations from an iPhone!

Got Spam? Blame Canada!

Getting any spam recently? Well, at least now we have someone to point fingers at. Canada!

A report published by Cisco on Monday shows that over 9 billion spam messages are sent from the Great White North every day, accounting for 4.7% of the world's spam.

Canada only came in fourth place in the report however, with the US accounting for 17.9%, Turkey for 9.2% and Russia for 8%. But on a per-capita basis, Canada is numero uno, eh!

It's been a while.... But it was worth it!

So we all have been pretty busy and as a result, no blogging. With the challenges of everyday life and the economy on the skids. We have something to hang our hat on! We are excited to tell the world that we are officially in a RETAIL business! Clackamas Town Center to be exact right near Sears on the bottom floor. The store is called ACME Gifts, filled with humorous and eclectic finds. A great store to check out for the Holidays. Big thanks to Eileen Sheridan for giving a small local Portland company a chance. Also Big thanks to Ben Fraticelli (neb) for all the updates and the willingness to help us when ever possible. Anyway, check it out! we will be there through the holidays so come stop by and be a patron to a local business... Thanks Team WrecktAngle
