Computer Resource Monitor with Python and ThingSpeak

[Chris Lee] of Australian Robotics created a project that uses ThingSpeak as a resource monitor for a computer. His project explains how he uses Python to send HTTP POST requests to a ThingSpeak Channel. The data that he is sending is CPU and memory usage. This application could be used for monitoring servers and verifying uptime.  Chris also makes use of the ThingSpeak Charts API to visualize the data in real-time.

The latest Python code to interface to ThingSpeak is available on GitHub.
