Andrej Kyselica Modifies Christmas Lights for Techy Purposes
Meghan Young — December 21, 2010 — Special
Christmas lights are beautiful to look at, but Andrej Kyselica has decided to give them some function. Modifying a set of LED Christmas lights, these luminous holiday adornments signal whether or not someone is available for instant messaging.
I guess this was a rather natural undertaking for Microsoft techy Andrej Kyselica. Not only do his modified Christmas lights indicate whether someone is online, it also has three colors to show if that person is actually available to chat or on 'busy.'
