Never Miss A New Email With The Physical Gmail Notifier
I was searching for a way to modify the Gmail Notifier code to suit my needs, and my search has brought me over to Jamie Matthew’s site wherein he really re-engineered the Gmail notifier. Instead of the usual desktop application that watches over your Gmail account for new activity, his invention literally flashes a cube-like device to alert you that a new mail has arrived.
His system basically uses three components; a software that runs on your computer to monitor your Gmail account, a electronic board that is connected via serial port, then a software that is controlling the behavior of that electronic board.
Once you’ve got a new mail, the cube starts to glow as shown. Simply ingenious!
