Cutest. Thing. Ever.

This is probably the best electronic hacker project I've seen ever: a computer-controlled push puppet for IM notifications. [via JK] How can you go wrong? You get to build a neat robot thing, attached to a cuddly puppet dog, and it contributes to your IM addiction by letting you know when your friends are around! Scroll down for the video - soooo cute! It's enough to make me switch to Linux....

I knew you'd like that, I thought maybe you could even use it for your class if you wanted to, but regardless I knew you would enjoy it.

Undecided on whether we'll build such a thing in class - or if I'll tackle it as a side project while students are doing their own projects - but you, of course, were entirely right about how much I love the idea of that project :)
