Making a dedicated palm-sized Tweet reader #Twitter @fabcrossjp
Kosuke Saito (NEKOPLA) writes about making a standalone tweet reader in the form factor of a small gaming device. (translated from Japanese by Google translate)
…Here is a dedicated gadget. It’s just a matter of my taste, but I’m really attracted to single-function hardware that says, “That’s all I can do.”
If you show me first, here is the Twitter gadget I made this time.
Monochrome liquid crystal in a Gameboy-like housing. Tweets can be displayed there, and you can fabo and retweet by pressing a button.
Named “TW BOY”. Of course, it is connected to the network and can read and display the latest timeline. Now that third-party client apps are dead, the era is still dedicated gadgets.
See the parts chosen and how it was programmed in the post here.
