Playing around with Arduino

Alright so, I recently began the second semester of my junior year of high school, and one of my electives is electronics! I am very excited for this class, especially since i learned that the majority of the class with be programming an Arduino microprocessor. I have tons of ideas, and cannot wait to test them out. One of the first things I plan on doing is to do the next generation of the infamous “Cambridge Coffee Pot.” Basically, I want to create a coffee pot that sends me a sms message when the coffee is done brewing. Should be a fun challenge. I will also post the source code when I am finished.
