    This is a neat hack, and cool that there's examples for a wide vareity of languages.

    I've been using WebJack (https://github.com/publiclab/webjack) wrapped with a better coding scheme for some similar work, I'm curious why ggwave is intended to use such a low bitrate - I'm able to get pretty good free-air reliability at 1200baud.
