  • I've got my Pico both reading and writing twitter messages! :)

    As we know the Pico can't handle HTTPS, which Twitter requires for accessing its API. So I wrote a node.js server that the Pico can talk regular HTTP with, and it'll then relay the messages to Twitter. To send tweets a password is required, so that the server isn't abused.

    I run the server on a free OpenShift instance, so no extra hardware is needed for that on my side :)

  • That's awesome - thanks for posting it up!

    That kind of thing could be the basis for a much more complex IoT project...
