This video gets more funny every time I watch it. Probably because Graham gets more like the kid in the book every day. Go the Fuck to Sleep as narrated by Samuel L. Jackson.

Of equal importance to the camera (maybe more, actually) is a thermostat. This article from Initial State comes with a video tutorial!

Kamran’s baby monitor post is the most detailed I’ve found yet for making a baby monitor out of a Raspberry Pi! Will definitely revisit when I have the parts.
