mbed + billy bass + twitter = internet of things

This is a hack of a big mouth billy bass. He uses an mbed microcontroller (http://mbed.org) to look on the internet using the ethernet interface to see if there are any twitters. If so, he downloads them in audio to an sd card, and plays them back with movements.

The idea is to show a microcontroller can do impressive things on it'd own, including play with the internet!
