After some struggling around I have now successfully created my first small program in HI-TIDE. I had missed I was looking into the pic1267x.h file when finding defs for my code. The program I tried to compile was the simple debouncer example from the PICkit FLash Starter Kit though it was not specifically written for the 12F675 which I have here. Thus I had to change some of the defs used, e.g. RA5 to GPIO5. I got help from the HI-TIDE Forum that I should look in pic12f6x.h instead which made it much easier to get it to compile:-)
Also solved the powersupply issue. Just take a 220V USB charger, gives a nice 5V with 500 mA!

Just listened to episode 270 of TipsFromTheTopFloor PodCast where Chris interviewed the guy behind CHDK. Interesting piece of software which enables a lot of interesting features in quite cheap cameras. Unfortunately my old PowerShot A70 isn’t supported.

Just stumbled upon PikaPika which looks quite cool. Wondered a bit how they have done it and according to their website its just stop motion. Here is an Instructable on how to do it, so some wire seems to help a lot!

17-20 april i år ordnar Storulvån och Sylarna Fjällfest. Det rycktas att även M.A.S.C, mountain and snowkite competition skall gå av stapeln då. Kanske man skulle satsa på att åka upp en sväng då.
