*stunned* by harvesting the web I cam across this wonderful Chatduino project.

[andre rapp] explains “This is an AIM instant messenger client for Arduino/Wiznet 5100, which allows you to communicate with your Arduino project from anywhere on the internet, in near real-time. You can communicate with your project through any AIM client or even your cell phone by using text messaging with Mobile AIM, and since communication is channeled though the AIM server, both the Arduino+Wiznet and chat client can exist behind firewalls.”

Download Chatduino. Thanks Andrew.
