在人人都開微博的時代，就連飲水機（water fountain）也發(fā)布微博了，還嗲聲嗲氣地賣起萌來，這到底是怎么一回事呢？

A micro blog account on a water fountain has attracted more than 30，000 followers within 48 hours of its birth on Sina Weibo， becoming latest cyber buzz on the Internet.

The micro blog， “Water Fountain in CCNT lab in Zhejiang University”， launched by a PHD student in Computer Science at the University， automatically updates the status quo of a water fountain in the computer lab. When the water boils， it uses flirty and endearing Internet slang common among Chinese netizens.

Its first message was delivered one Thursday afternoon， saying “I have observed the celestial phenomena， which tells that the water is boiling.” After repeating the line seven times in two hours， it took a sweet tone， yelling out， “Master， Im hot， come and drink me soon.”

“The secret of its intelligence lies in an automatic inducing system，” said Chen Longbiao， the designer and moderator of the micro blog account.

Chen has set up the system by attaching a camera to the water fountain. This camera monitors the indicator light on the fountain which turns red for boiling water and green for empty. The information is then sent from the camera to a program through a data cable connected to a nearby laptop， which will receive message delivering orders.

He also said that he decided to invent the system， on which he spent 15 hours and 200 yuan （$32） after noticing his classmates constant trips to the water fountain to check if the hot water was available.

“The intelligent push technology， which in our case is the hot water availability， is the trend for future Internet technology. It makes our life more convenient. ”

The genius doesnt expect his micro blog to become the first trend at the first place and attributes this to the its language style.

“I guess it is because it has a cute air so many people get interested and are willing to forward the messages，” he said with a smile.

As the followers and praises keep rushing in， Chen believes there is room for bigger success.

“For now the camera can only detect hot water. It cannot tell if the cold water is out. I plan to work that out by setting a pressure test system or another camera at the joint， and then the micro blog will be able to remind people to renew the water.”

一臺飲水機的新浪微博賬號在開通48小時內(nèi)就吸引來3萬粉絲，進而成為最新網(wǎng)絡(luò)熱點。

這個名為“浙大CCNT實驗室飲水機”的微博是由浙大計算機科學(xué)專業(yè)的一名博士生開通的。該微博自動更新發(fā)布計算機實驗室中一臺飲水機的狀態(tài)。一旦水燒開了，它就會發(fā)出國內(nèi)網(wǎng)友普遍使用的賣萌網(wǎng)絡(luò)用語發(fā)微博。

在一個周四下午，“飲水機娘”發(fā)了第一條微博：“以我夜觀天象所見，這水大約的確是開了吧。”在之后的兩小時內(nèi)，這句話被重復(fù)了七次，接下來，她很嗲地說了句：“主人，我已經(jīng)沸騰了，快來喝吧?！?/p>

“飲水機娘”微博的設(shè)計者兼管理員陳龍彪表示，該智能飲水機的背后奧秘是一個自動感應(yīng)系統(tǒng)。

為建造該系統(tǒng)，陳龍彪在飲水機上裝了一個攝像頭。該攝像頭的鏡頭可以監(jiān)控飲水機的指示燈，紅色代表水開了，綠色說明開水被用光了。這些信息會通過數(shù)據(jù)線從攝像頭傳輸?shù)礁浇P記本電腦中的程序上，這樣一來該程序就會接收到發(fā)送信息的指令。

陳龍彪發(fā)現(xiàn)同學(xué)們經(jīng)常跑去看飲水機的水有沒有燒開，于是他便開始構(gòu)想發(fā)明這個系統(tǒng)。他一共只花了15個小時的時間，資金成本也就兩百塊錢。

“智慧推動了科技，在我們這個案例中，便是熱水提示功能，這將是未來網(wǎng)絡(luò)科技的發(fā)展趨勢。智慧會讓我們生活變得更加便捷?！?/p>

這位發(fā)明天才并未料到微博會成為這一全新領(lǐng)域的弄潮兒，他將此歸功于該微博的語言風(fēng)格。

他笑著說：“我猜是因為她太萌了，所以才吸引這么多人轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)微博的。”

隨著粉絲和贊揚之聲接踵而來，陳龍彪堅信還有更大的成功機會。

“現(xiàn)在，攝像頭只能夠監(jiān)測熱水，不能告訴大家桶內(nèi)的冷水是否被用光，我想在水桶接口處出安裝一個壓力探測系統(tǒng)，或者再裝一個攝像頭，這樣一來，微博也能提醒大家什么時候該換水了?！?/p>
