I thought the PF crew would enjoy this [url=http://instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/ee476/FinalProjects/s2009/rac82_mos22/rac82_mos22/index.htm]science project  made by some kids with way too much time on their hands.  I guess I shouldn't criticize them too much, since I also must have too much time on my hands in order to find stuff like this on the internet and then make a post here about it.

According to the description you can build your very own device for about $60US, a cost which I think could be easily recouped (if there are any aspiring businesspeople among us) by organizing a contest in your local area and charging a small entry fee to each contestant.  You probably wouldn't even need to award any actual prizes, since bragging rights for the winner would likely satisfy most who would enter such a contest.

Another related device in which some of you may also be interested and can also be built at home is described [url=http://www.instructables.com/id/The-Twittering-Office-Chair/]here.  I shudder to think about the devious uses some of you might find for this device.

Have fun.
