Random Hall's computing facilities can be described in one word: gratuitous. Yeah. We have our washing machines and dryers hooked to the web (see laundry.mit.edu), and we're working on getting the bathrooms hooked up that way, too. You can check out what we have at bathroom.mit.edu. Other things we're considering are lights controllable through the web, lights that respond to music or preprogrammed flashing patterns, a zephyr class that goes to a hall phone in random, and a zephyr class that goes to a voice synth in Clam lounge (3-282). If you have any other suggestions, you can mail them to me at rsw@mit.edu.
