		<description><![CDATA[So my new concept is geo-locative sensor tracking with a modular pack. Basically you pick and choose what you want to track (ie carbon monoxide, dust, noise pollution, alcohol[?], light pollution, or methane gas), and this data is recorded. Then you transfer it to an online database, and can watch a personal log of your own data collection over time. Last step is to connect individuals to each other via the database, so you can see how your friend in Beijing experiences his/her journey from home to work every day, and relate on a new level.

		<description><![CDATA[ok nerdzors, look out.  Ira told me about a project that she made that took an analog input from processing and posted it to php (and then possibly a database, not sure).  i wanted to try it out for myself, so i did some searching, and of course the processing guru Daniel Shiffman had a nice <a href="http://www.learningprocessing.com/tutorials/php/">tutorial</a> on at least getting to a php script.  I ended up creating a world-wide collaborative drawing tool...  <a href="http://jmsaavedra.com/weblog/?p=638">read more</a>
