The thing about wireless to me is that devices could tell whether or not they were nearby. I'm sure you could use power lines to conduct the brunt of communications, and just a little rfid tag or something to communicate with a handset you carry around with you, and you just say "lights" or...

This is probably one of the coolest threads here, and I've always loved thinking about things like this. What I just can't stop thinking about though is a completely networked lighting system, a sort of mess of wireless and wired network with a central server and several nodes of actual lights...

http://textdrive.com/ - easily the best host on the internet. Priced well, with absolutely fantastic service. I don't think I've had an issue that wasn't responded to within 1 hour, and never had to wait on anything from them. The servers were up for four months straight until about a week...

The addition of a new clickwheel iPod to my collection, I need a new iPod case, and I don't really want to buy one... Anyone seen any neat ideas how to protect your iPod from scratches and the like? I've been thinking about making a case of saran wrap, and running it over with a hair dryer...

Thanks a million, anarchie!

Liquor is overrated guys - c'mon - anyone want some real intoxication? Start a varsity soccer match with all your boys in the crowd or take a hot bath and get out with your legs burning easy from playing. I'm just a kid - but I can pull my six pack out whenever I want, and it's free! :)

I think it should hang from the ceiling...

I think it would be great - and does anyone know if apple does anything along the lines of selecting songs besides just shuffling through your library? I know that iTunes has always selected higher rated songs more often, but non of my songs are rated. Does it look at play count/recent plays...
