Sit at your desk, listen to audio book. Walk away. Forget to pause? Too bad? No more! Place headphones on hook to pause. Pick up to play.

Description

Solder: Attiny 85 / 45 + switch using 1-key-keyboard schematic
Fabricate: headphone hook w/ switch holder
Software: Use Quicksilver* to trigger Applescript/Python script to do some thinking about pressing play, pause, or do nothing.

*: Anything that can monitor for a couple keyboard strokes should be good enough. I like Quicksilver, what do you like?
