Using technology to improve our lives

I saw this article and video come across my EETimes RSS feed - on using a Freescale Coldfire microcontroller embedded in a golf club to monitor swing and impact. Pretty slick. Now, I wonder if I could design something to embed into a guitar neck to figure out what note I intended to play, and correct it? Now that would be cool…

BTW - I’m creating this post in Google Docs - somewhere (and I’ve lost track where) I saw a blog-post listing some good off-line blog-post editors. One of them happened to be Google Docs, which has a “Publish” feature. So if this post looks funny, it’s not my fault!

Update: The Google “Publish” feature did not apply a title to the post, so I had to edit the post.  This is a show-stopper for me, since I use post titles for track-back URLs.  I’ll keep looking for another off-line tool.
