			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, you are going to watch movie in 10 minutes when you get home from work?</p>
<p>Simply send a tweet to your <a href="http://williamself.wordpress.com/2009/02/28/this-video-has-a-twittery-touch/">Twitter Popcorn Robot</a> before you leave your work (assuming you live 10 minutes away) and enjoy the popcorn when you get home, all ready to be served.</p>
<p>Does this sound like a cool Twitter robot?</p>
<p>Yes, it&#8217;s actually real and <a href="https://twitter.com/robedorobotics">William Self(@robedorobotics)</a> has put together an amazing Twitter Popcorn robot using a netbook, USB infrared transmitter, USB-based sensors and controllers.</p>
<p>William also says he will be updating with more features so we will keep our eyes glued to his blog.</p>
<blockquote><p>Soon, you’ll see our wheeled robots gaining new structure: arms, grippers and maybe even a humanoid torso. We’re not promising a fully capable R2-D2 or Rosie robot. Those would probably cost you $50,000. We are promising good technology and useful robots. Plus fun. Plenty of fun.</p></blockquote>
<p>Keep up the great work and don&#8217;t forget to tip us first <a href="http://twitter.com/tweethacking">@tweethacking</a> on your next Twitter Hack projects.</p>
