With a BeagleBone we can respond to HTTP requests with flashing lights and sounds.

My example project runs in the cloud9 IDE installed on the BeagleBone. The BoneScript library gives us I/O access, and Journey simplifies routing requests. For now I am using the Mail client to run an AppleScript that creates the requests.
