Hello World, as they say.
I’m getting all modern and entering the world of blogging…
I’m a 40 year old lad from NZ who likes playing around with gadgets and things and has worked in the IT industry and Cloud Computing space most of my working life…
I’ve also been messing about with some of these new low cost micro controllers and sensors and IoT things over the past couple of years and thought I would share some of my findings that aren’t always so obvious to figure out.. especially if one is new to the whole thing like I was…
Things are changing every day and you can spend hours researching something, and then find someone has already built something that is exactly what you need and you can implement it in 5 minutes….
Anyways, I spend a lot of time online with work and personal stuff finding answers and shortcuts to what I am trying to do and am forever grateful to all the example code and bits and pieces I have learnt from others online over the years that share their knowledge..
Feeling philanthropic in my old age, I hope something I write can help someone else who may be interested in this whole IoT world that is coming… or maybe the odd script or something I write for work that could shortcut someone else having to do the same thing from scratch…
