I'm hosting a Christmas Party and I am trying to incorporate a little "automation" into it...
The touch screens around my house all share a common network attached storage to supply the pictures on the screensavers.
Since everyone has a camera phone, I thought it would be cool for people to be able to take pictures and email them (perhaps to Homeseer?) and have them dumped in the folder that contains the screensaver pics.
When people arrive, give them the email address to send them to and then have some fun. I will be left with a lot of cool photos from the party and everyone will have fun throughout the night trying to get funny pictures posted.
Maybe have a script that will strip out the attachment when an email is received and then save it in the folder?
I'm hoping this might spark some creativity here.
And while we're at it, any other games you guys can think of?
