Several of us are posting a 'secret' message to the eclipse broker.

You can subscribe to our topics and share the Xmas Light of Things.

 

If you post your MQTT payload here, I'll add them to the list.

    Jan That's great. I'm still waiting for my parts to arrive, but I'm thinking of adapting shabaz's world map. (I'm not sure if he did one for this challenge) http://www.element14.com/community/community…

    element14_IoT is OK. I'll change the top post to reflect this, and will update my code to use this topic (and to filter out my own messages , fvan , you 'll have to adapt your sketch too).


    I'll add mcb1 and peteroakes

    No need to change names.

    My username is mcb1, and I just figured that anyone can see these, but may not see the full name which is limited to contacts.

    element14_IoT should be no problem as is using the E14 user names, mine unlike most though is my full name which is why I was substituting it but I can put an underscore in there, no issues from m end
