I figured I would share this project here since I wrote it in D and this is a D forum! I basically built two small programs to send and get a computer's IP using gmail as the static source. It would've been simpler to implement with some shell scripts, but I wanted to get practice using other d compilers and using the curl c bindings. A small writeup and source are below.

Blog post detailing the project:

Mixed things up. Noon EST or 9am PST is the best time. No weekends.
