This is what happens when you get a load of techies in one place. We thought that it would be a good idea to put together a quick blog entry about Martin Fowler's PowerBook while we were in the pub. So, Sam preceded to get out his BlackBerry and, a few HTTP requests later, an entry was posted on his <plug>Pebble powered</plug> blog. Pretty cool, but not the end of the story.
If you've been following Jez's blog, then you'll know that he's been playing with a new project called box. Basically, it's an RSS aggregator that sends him an SMS (via e-mail) whenever a blog is updated. After about 10 minutes, he gets an SMS containing the title of Sam's blog entry. A good demo, yet very amusing!
