Here are the beybindings
So I bought a Media Center Remote from Ebay.My primary purpose is to use it remote control my laptop while it is playing music or DVD etc.
Especially now that I have a KWORLD ATSC 340U Dongle HDTV USB Stick for my laptop I wanted to integrate it with a remote.
Overall the product works well.Though I would have liked the keys on the remote to be softer.
So essentially this is a mini keyboard .What is does is basically send keytrokes like when you press the red button it will send a key stroke Ctrl+r so as long as your app can understand the key pressed you are all set.
It works on Linux/Windows.

gps3d at OSM
Introduced gps3d as one of the tools which can be used to log gps data on Windows and then can use NMEA sentences to GPX which can be further used at OSM.

OpenStreetMap(OSM) Involvement
Recently I have been making changes to the maps on openstreetmap.org for the Sunnyvale area.
I have added lot of restaurants around Sunnyvale , pretty much anytime I visit a restaurant or any other place I make changes on OSM.My goal is to add as much details as possible to maps.
I have also added a lot of GPS traces, so pretty much wherever I go these days I carry my laptop and my GPS mouse and record my GPS traces and then convert into GPX format and upload it to OSM.You can see my GPS traces at My GPS Traces
