subject: EMBEDDED echo

-> I recently picked up moderating the EMBEDDED echo.  For those of you
-> know what that's all about,  embedded systems are computers that are
-> other product that's primarily not a computer, like the ones in your
-> your microwave,  and so forth.
->
-> In a recent message there the subject of home automation came up and
-> I though of the folks in here.  Seems to me that a very small amount
-> of hardware to control things and a bit of software smarts could go
-> a long way towards making things better in terms of what we're
-> dealing with in here.
-> Feel free to drop by and comment.  Traffic in there is *very* light
-> at this point,  not far from zero,  but that's at least partly
-> because of the shaky backbone status of the echo,  and I'm dealing
-> with that.
As an aside to the Embedded/Home Automation thread, there is a decent
magazine with that as a major topic.  Circuit Cellar Ink.
One of the principals in it is Steve Ciarcia, former BYTE writer.
