IBM Geekery



IBM are building a computer system to challenge humans at the game of Jeopardy. While certainly entertaining in and of itself, this is more than just an entertainment stunt and it has serious implications on how we bring computing to a new level of understanding of the human environment.

Also Andy Stanford a UK IBMmer has set up an automated twitter feed to record his house. Read the article here about "House Hacking" or check out Wired House for some serious house hacking down to when the door bell rings and what windows are open. Oh, and have a look at everything he has in his fridge! Mad!
