I started playing around with using ComputerCraft to control a BuildCraft oil refinery in Minecraft.

The source code for the ComputerCraft program is here: https://gist.github.com/3461305

+Steven Troughton-Smith wrote a C program for the RPC8/e CPU in Minecraft to play "Still Alive" on an array of music note blocks! Here's the source: https://gist.github.com/3383882

Google maps now shows the real-time departures for BART!
