Suddenly, I'm Famous

Heh, this blog is the "Engineering Site of the Day" at EEWeb.com.  I only get this privilege for a day, so check it out quickly:

http://www.eeweb.com/websites/desert-home

I've used the site several times looking for cool devices and ideas.  You know, when you just want to step through the various advertisements and announcements to see what the new things are.  They also have a forum where you can ask questions like "How do I ...," and "what device will ..."  The nice thing is there isn't the collection of snarky replies that usually come from a question like that.

No, I have no idea why they chose me other than they recognize tenacity.  I can't be the beautiful prose and superior artistry of my blog.

So, go to their site and prowl around. Then, for folk like us, go to the embedded tab and really look around, There are some articles in the embedded section that really caught my eye.  Especially one on sequencing power supplies <link>.  I'm looking at that problem right now where I have a 5V device hooked to a 3V device and I want to put them to sleep.  How the heck does one do that?

Now, a screenshot in case they decide they made a horrible mistake and pull it.  I want proof.


I'm so proud.
