Okay, after a long work week, we are back relaxing at Lincoln Park in San Francisco…  Weather is very nice today and I got a lot of sleep (like 12 hours).  Tonight, we will cook some good food but before doing so:

Here’s how to extend your wireless keyboard range via hackedgadgets.  I wonder if you can do this to Apple Keyboards too…  But here’s a cool thread on how to connect an Apple wifi keyboard to Ubuntu.

You can extend the range even without any soldering required. I simply wrapped a wire (a long phone cord I had at my dispense) a few times around my logitech RF receiver, and the rest of wire (a few more feet) I taped along a wall up to the ceiling. This simple hack improved the range of my wireless mouse and keyboard by maybe 200%, and now I can control my computer from anywhere in the apartment. getting the number of wire loops required and the length of the cable is a bit of a trial and error, but it’s so easy you might want to give it a try.
