Amazing use of technology

Well as those who keep up with this blog know, I have been blogging some of the issues and problems I have had as I have made my move to Muncie, Indiana. Well I found, with my roommates help, one of the coolest uses of technology ever. BSU Wash Alert System. Basically I can check the status of each washer and dryer from my living room. The applet, or whatever, in realtime shows you how much time is left, if the washer/dryer is open, or if there are clothes left in the washer/dryer.

That is a great, amazing and very useful. Below are a couple screenshots of Wash Alert in action.


No laundry in the above washers

The blue line is the time remaining on the clothes in the above laundry
