David Nichols’ Tweetster, a wireless Twitter display
July 28th, 2009 by Jeff
David Nichols made this awesome wireless twitter display by combining a hacked Asus WL-520gU wireless router with a Sparkfun serial-enabled LCD display. The router is running the same OpenWrt distribution I used for my Wifi Radio project, plus a USB thumbdrive that provides some additional flash storage space. I really like the custom laser cut base that holds the LCD display and the router!
