Chapter 6. Logging Data in Google Docs

In this chapter, we are going to continue building Internet of Things applications using the Arduino Ethernet shield. This time, we are going to use the web service Temboo, to build some useful and interesting applications. Temboo is different from Xively, which we used in the previous chapter. It is not a cloud platform in itself, but it can be used to interface our Arduino projects with several other applications and services. You can see Temboo as a bridge between your Ethernet shield and a wide range of web services, such as e-mail services, text messaging services, or storage services.

For example, in this chapter, we are going see how to interface your Arduino project to your Google Account via Temboo. We will use this functionality to automatically log measurements inside a Google Docs spreadsheet.

The advantage of this solution is that you can access your Google Docs spreadsheet from anywhere, thus monitoring your data from anywhere...
