Summary

The Internet is a fount of information, and with an Arduino and an Ethernet shield or on-board Ethernet, your pet can interact with the world around it, from Twitter to e-mail to anything else with any API or RSS feed. Your basic robot is able to tell when a person tweets and responds by flashing its LED eyes.

What else can you make the Twitter Pet do? Can you make it respond to certain hashtags or mentions of a Twitter account? Can you have it alert you when you have new e-mail? Can you have it let you know when your favorite web site is updated? Can you make it do additional things? The possibilities are as limitless as the amount of information on the Internet.
