Flexx - our own Nabaztag

nabaztag rabbit

Travelling back from London yesterday writing my Birmingham Post column on the Nabaztag wifi bunny my resolve finally snapped. 30 minutes after arriving at new St I was in Selfridges buying a Nabaztag. (That in itself was an interesting use of the web - I used the browser on my phone to search Nabatag and Birmingham, and discovered that Selfridges are the only bricks & mortar stockists in the country!)

The Nabaztag, christened Flexx by Ruth, performed flawlessly, finding the WiFi network and taking its first set of commands. Even better I then found that it already has a REST based API, and by just after midnight I had it reading the BBC TV schedule via the new Backstage BBC TV API. isn't the web wonderful.
