Hi,

 

Is it possible to have an updated version of this tutorial (for ubuntu 11)? With may be, a little more explanations. I'm quite a rookie in linux and database things, but i'm really interested in the ThingSpeak API installation.

What are the possibilities once ThingSpeak API is installed on our own servers? Is it really the same as the ThingSpeak website? Creating an account and so on?

 

I hope for an answer, and please excuse me is some of my questions are dumb or naïve.

ThingSpeak installation instructions have been updated for Ubuntu 11.10 - and now the same instructions work on Ubuntu 10 and up.

 

Here are the instructions on GitHub:

https://github.com/other/thingspeak/blob/master/README.textile

 

Each line is a command that you enter from the terminal window.
