Title: SPI help (Forum) Submitted: March 17th, 2010 - 11:44am

Hi,

I'm trying to work on a fun little arduino project -- a streaming mp3 endpoint. I have an mp3 decoder chip on a breakout board from Sparkfun (http://www.sparkfun.com/commer...) but I'm having trouble getting it to talk to the Arduino using SPI/SDI. Any SPI experts willing to lend a quick hand at an as220 open labs sometime? The Arduino SPI library isn't any help (or I'm using incorrectly). I tried converting some ATmel code I found to talk to this particular chip, also without any luck.

Thanks!

Peter

Title: Google Transit Active for Rhode Island (Forum) Submitted: April 23rd, 2008 - 9:15am

Google has activated directions using public transporation for the whole state.

http://www.gcpvd.org/2008/04/23/google-transit-rhode-island/

It works pretty well, although the routes drawn on the map can be a little suspect from time to time (ie, showing straight-line paths between points, rather than following roads). The times all seem correct, though, so it is very usable. With one fell swoop, Google has just made RIPTA even more awesome.

Next year for Earth Day, they should include bike paths and greenways in their directions...
