Under my photo on the right hand side of this blog of the form ‘Darryl is in Ingleburn’, ‘Darryl is in his office’, or even ‘Darryl is at the Airport’. I am getting this information from a GPRS tracking unit that I have designed. If I am moving it might say ‘Darryl is moving through Parramatta’. The one that I find really cute is ‘Darryl is in Sydney and is in mortal danger’. The mortal danger triggers if I am driving at over 100 KM/H regardless of the speed limit. I just thought that it would be a cute concept to have a comment like that.

For the next few days the comment under the photo will not be changing as my tracking unit has been loaned out. Once it is returned this data will be updated every time the page is refreshed. I am not sure if this will stay on the site permamently, but right now it is there, and I might bet some graphics created for it at some stage too… More like the Harry Potter clock. I just need to think about how to generate some graphics that looks like it should appear on this site. Staying with the style is essential.

There are a few problems with the positions database that I need to fix. These will be improved over time. Castle Hill occasionally appears as as a location that is about 20km east for some reason. [One more thing to add to the To-Do List I guess]. My next task will be to have a small Web Page that I can use to send fake positions to the database in the case where I do not have the tracker in my car for it to work automatically.
