Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

I wrote a script that takes all the info in the database of the FLOSS DJ Software Mixxx' databse (sqlite, yeah!), and writes it to the tags of the MP3s/OGGs/FLACs.

I have another script that reads the info from the tags and writes in back into the database. So I never have to set the cue-points/comments/scores/BPMs again for my tracks :) And all is self contained in the audio file.
