PHP Wrapper for Paymo API

I use a great time tracking bit of software called Paymo. For a while now I've wanted to create a PHP wrapper for it's API and I've finally got around to doing it. Please feel free to fork it on GitHub. I've also included the Doxygen config file which you can use to create documentation for the classes.

Sketches of Co'ordinates / Speed / Altitude

I really like data visualization so after discovering that my MacBook has inbuilt accelerometers I decided it would be cool to see whether I could use these to map a cars journey. For this I used Processing, a Python library for interrogating the MacBook's accelerometers called PyAppleSMS and an external Bluetooth GPS unit.
