Today I broke a world record, and got on TV

Achievements for today:

Perl for Android

I have an Android phone. I love it. After scanning a barcode it now runs Perl. Sure, the example Hello World program dies with an error, but there's already a patch to fix that.

This is a massively exciting achievement for me, and is even better for it having all of ninety seconds. It's now tantalisingly easy to do some pretty amazing things from my phone. I don't think I'm going to be short for a project any time soon.
