Google announces Cloud Internet Of Things public beta

Today Google is officially announcing and launching public beta of the Cloud Internet Of Things Service. This  is a Google scale service, designed for very large, reliable  global IOT deployments millions of devices. Since the private alpha launch, industries such as transportation, oil and gas, utilities, healthcare and ride-sharing have used the service and provided insightful feedback.

I am personally working on this project, proud to be a member of this exceptionally talented infrastructure team.

See the Google blog post and see the Google IOT Core Developer home.  There are lots of great samples to get you started for MQTT and HTTP protocols.

Your data can easily connect to Google's Cloud platforms such as Machine Learning for predictive maintenance analytics, BigQuery for rich analysis, and Analytics for real-time monitoring of the fleet of machines.

  • Utilities can monitor, analyze and predict consumer energy usage in real time
  • Transportation and logistics firms can proactively stage the right vehicles/vessels/aircraft in the right places at the right times
  • Oil and gas and manufacturing companies can enable intelligent scheduling of equipment maintenance to maximize production and minimize downtime"
For smaller project,s it is completely free (up to 250MB/month exchanged)

Pricing 

We are also introducing a simple pricing plan based on the volume of data exchanged with Cloud IoT Core. You can register as many IoT devices as you want, and you pay only when the devices connect to and exchange data with Cloud IoT Core. To make it simple to build quick prototypes with just a few devices, we have added a free tier that lets you try the service at no cost.

How to get anything on EBAY for free (and get away with it)

This article explains how to get anything for free on Ebay. This is very simple, proven and guaranteed to work. You can get, for example, an IPhone 4, a 64GB IPad 2, or even a Macbook Pro laptop for free. 1. If the seller does not use delivery confirmation, you already won. Just tell ebay you never received the item. They will always side with you (bhe buyer) and refund your money, including shipping, AT THE SELLER'S EXPENSE. There is nothing the seller can do. Ebay will not investigate further, they close the case.  I have hard numerous reports of this happening.  See this facebook thread  and this article . The buyer now has no item, no money, and in addition he is out the cost of shipping. Totally screwed. 2. If you are dealing with a savvy seller, they will use delivery confirmation. Don't worry, you can still get your item for free. After you receive the item, open a case and claim the item broken. Let's use an IPhone 4 as an example. Open a claim and say the medi

How to hot start a Cirrus SR22

The SR22 does not like to normally start when the engine is hot. I use a simple procedure to hot start my SR22. My  Method 1. Prime 5 seconds 2. Throttle 1/4" open, mixture cutoff. 3. Start cranking and slowly advance mixture. 4. Once engine starts to fire, go mixture rich. Honestly I developed this through trial and error, I don't know exactly why it works but it does. I think this works because the prime step pumps cold fuel through the system to cool it down. Then cranking the engine with mixture cutoff pushes all the fuel and air bubbles out of the system, leaving room for clean fuel to be pumped in through cold fuel lies. CPPP Method At the 2015 CPPP in Williamsport we learned about another trick. Hot engine means hot fuel lines, which vaporize fuel (literally, fuel boils, air bubbles form). Engine doesn't want to start with part fuel part air being pumped in. You must cool down your fuel lines first. 1. Throttle closed, mixture cutoff. 2. Run boost pum
