    (Yes temp.sh is a terrible name, I meant "temperature" not "temporary")

    (Yes I know 24 means 24th minute, not 24 hours. I didn't want it to tweet on the hour in case there are other processes doing stuff then. 24 is just a random number.)

  • Interesting. Are the 5 hour gaps regular or just occasional?

    Can highly recommend Thingspeak for this sort of thing. I send it temp readings every 60 seconds and never skips a beat. It can also tweet for you.
