What shall we call it? - GoogleTV-IRC device

[marc - HackTheMedia]

You'll be happy to hear that we have now a 2nd IRC access located in Hackspace's lobby (as discussed in this post), connected to the LCD screen mounted on the wall.

We're using one of the Google TV donated to the space, which works with a nice wireless keyboard with touch-pad.

Needless to say we can do a lot more than IRC on this machine.

Also big thank for their help to David and Bernard. 

It's temporary called Capek, but the name is open to discussion and vote.

We do have a page for naming systems: http://wiki.london.hackspace.org.uk/view/System_naming

After working on fixing the mini-lathe that's not been touched in over 3 months I'm thinking this google TV device is a great candidate for a tool status dashboard.

Say a traffic light system: Red for broken, Amber if  it's being fixed, Green if is it's all good. Together with the status (link to robonaut maybe), person/people working on it, and the time since last update.

Reason for it is that everyone can see at a glance what's working and hopefully as a community we are more likely to fix stuff.
