Are you one of those techno-leadytes? You know those people who long for the days of your when technology meant rail roads, flushable toilets and telegraphs. Perhaps you’re one of those Ham (err I mean) Amateur Radio affectionados. If so then you will absolutely be thrilled by the homebrewed @tworsekey project that enables you to send tweets using Morse Code.
With the recent growth of the Steam Punk movement it really was only a matter of time before someone cobbled together a gadget like this. The project documentation will help you build this completely standalone device that connects directly to you LAN via the built in ethernet cable. That’s right this is not a USB pseudo keyboard apparatus but a full fledged piece of gear.
The source code, hardware schematics and building instructions are available under the GPLv3 licenses. (c) 2012 by Martin Kaltenbrunner.
My only question is when will someone develop a wireless version that fits in my pocket?
