Good evening!
I'm new to this community. I'm a computer science major, and after taking some Electronic classes, I'm slowly falling in love with digital electronics! Because of such, I need some advice.
I seen in a list of "Under $25" gifts, a email notifier. More precisely, a USB email notifier in the shape of a big envelope.
I would like to know where to begin to do a similar project, my intentions are this:
I want a LED to light up when I get a new Gmail. I think it would be a great place to start off hardware/software mixing, as I REALLY want to make one of those amazing LED cubes. But....That's a long way off :]
Thank you, any advice, or links, or anything like that would be GREATLY appreciated!
