I find myself referring to Matt Hawkins’ blog almost every day now for some tidbit of information so I’ve decided that qualifies it as one of my Great Sites.
Matt does an excellent job at creating his own content. This varies from the relatively mundane-but-useful (for example a guide to the LEDs on the Pi) to the techy (e.g. a tutorial on sensing distance with an ultrasonic module) to the essential (e.g. a guide to essential tools for the electronics enthusiast) to the downright silly (e.g. getting your Pi display to look like the Matrix).
The posts are always informative and well-written and cater for both beginners and advanced users of the Pi. Visit the blog now or subscribe to the RSS feed.
For other great sites, see the list on every page of this blog or read about why the sites were chosen.
Matt’s a star. I’ve been messing with his Wii controller script and put together a monster demo. I’ll be knocking out a blog about it as soon as I’ve cut the Video together. Perhaps even later today, if it goes well. 🙂
Oh excellent! I was going to write a daemon to listen for Wii controller presses and do different things. The one thing I’ve always struggled with though is bluetooth pairing when the Pi is headless. Guess I’ll have another go!
I think I’ll be missing out by not going to the Jam this month. Nuts!
You’re welcome to pop over and see it Mike. Bit of a treck Bedford to Bicester, but we never get chance for a proper chat at the Jams as they’re so hectic.
Sounds like a plan! *consults Google Maps* Oh you’re _there_. Suddenly the Oxford Jams make sense. 😉 That’s not too bad, actually. 1h30
