I hope this will be my chance to get my first Arduino. Cool!

Pretty pretty pretty please do. Arduinos are really fun. If you get one, get the ethernet module for it at well (or, in arduino parlance: the ethernet shield).

Last night, I finally got my ethernet module working the way I wanted it to...it seriously felt like the first time I glanced into a compiler back before I was even a teenager...it was sooo fun. I'm sure I annoyed more than one of my friends emailing about it at 2:00am. :-P

This is the project I was doing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMAunBsv3xA

Seriously seriously seriously get one. They are a lot of fun :).

This was another one I did: http://www.gibsonandlily.com/blog/permalink.cgi?blog_id=74
