Raspberry Pi – #29/#365

Posted by Sean Smyth on 09 Mar 2013 / 0 Comment


From Wikipedia – "The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of promoting the teaching of basic computer science in schools."

My brother got me this for Christmas and I’ve tinkered around with it a little bit but not enough.

I’ve seen people online use it a as a very small Media Centre that’s attached to a TV, a harddrive and the internet. So I could trigger a download of a torrent from another computer or my mobile and when I got home it’d be on the hard drive ready to go. I could use my mobile as a remote control for it too.

There are loads of possibilities and there is a team working at the moment trying to port Android to it which really appeals to me. That way, Netflix and loads of other on demand services are available to me.

Nerd out!
