This plant, which lives in a cafe in Japan and goes by the name of Midori-san, has its very own blog. (yes, of course I know it’s in Japanese, don’t be daft)
Accroding to this article in the London Daily Telegraph, the plant is fitted with assorted sensors that feed data about the plant’s general condition to a computer, which then posts the information in a “chatty” style on the blog.
As you can see in this video from the Telegraph, it looks like part of the setup that allows Midori-san to post to its blog is a Chumby, the little informational gizmo that I told you about right around this same time last year. I’d be interested to know what role the Chumby plays in the whole thing (it’s not mentioned in the video).
Of course, this is not the only blogging Plant(e) I know, but at least it posts every day. (Oh, snap!)
