PigeonBlog is being developed in conjunction with Preemptive Media's AIR project.

Pigeon Blog

PigeonBlog provides an alternative way to participate in environmental air pollution data gathering. The project equips urban homing pigeons with GPS enabled electronic air pollution sensing devices capable of sending real-time location based air pollution and image data to an online mapping/blogging environment.
