Chirp: The Beep-Bop Breakthrough in Data Transfer or Just Noise?
Chirp is the new tool that lets your computer sing sweet nothings to another. It turns text into audio tones for data transfer. While it might not replace Wi-Fi, it’s perfect for short-range, offline fun. Just remember, if your computer starts serenading you, it’s probably just sending a text!
Hot Take:
Finally, a tool that lets you send secret messages using audio tones! Just imagine whispering sweet nothings to your friend’s laptop through your phone, only for them to receive garbled nonsense because the birds outside decided to join the conversation. Meet Chirp, the app that’s making sound waves literally, but good luck using it in a noisy room!
Key Points:
- Chirp is an open-source tool that transmits data using audio tones.
