I'm bored

[ydekmekji]

Help me get unbored--I've got my system pretty much exactly how I want it. i have all the plugins that I like and that pass WAF. I have the skin that I like. My bugs are pretty much minimal... I have a computer dedicated just for GBPVR...

What else can I do to "soop up" my system? I'm not gonna buy any more hardware so it's pretty much software related...

Some Plugin ideas that'd be cool to add to GBPVR:
* DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) Plugin...
* Live Traffic Report + Google Maps plugin (I have it on my Palm Treo and it's AWESOME!)...
* Directions Plugin
* Video On Demand plugin: Apple TV is gonna come out allowing us to connect and download stuff from itunes and watch them. It's gonna cost $299... I don't wanna pay money for that
* Sync my calendar to GBPVR--I'd love it if my wife just clicked on a button on the tv and she can see get my calendar--maybe get it synced to yahoo calendar (or google calendar??)
* Heck--my entire PDA on gbpvr--my address book too!
* oh ... surf the web using my remote through gbpvr..

I know what you're thinking--do i want gbpvr to even bathe me? No, just the above is fine...

I'm like a ZERO when it comes to writing a plugin. I'd love to learn, but my computer science classes in college only taught me stuff in Pascal...

There's a good calendar plugin that works with some online calendars.
There's an RSS plugin that will probably get you traffic, if you have an RSS feed for it.
There's an IE web plugin to browse the web through GBPVR...
Take a look through the wiki, there's lots more stuff.

* Live Traffic Report + Google Maps plugin

That would be very cool! Instantly see where to avoid before you get in the car. I'm looking forward to someone having a go at this one!

That's fine with the RSS, but my treo has this nice visual of the traffic. I've seen the browser plugin, but it's weak... The calendar plugin seems promising. I know it's in an early stage... my pda is palm and is synced withe outlook and yahoo calendar. (The calendar plugin does it with google calendar)

Is there a web surfing plugin that exists? If so can you post a link to it? Thanks!

As far as browsing the net a Wiimote is what I am waiting for to use as a mouse and the regular remote for the keypad. I can't wait until someone develops an integrated gyro mouse/remote. Maybe Logitech will make one soon.

I use the webcam plugin to view local traffic cams. As good as it get's for up to date traffic.
