The Kindle’s screensaver is pretty, but useless. If you want to spice it up with relevant information, including weather, time, and more, programmer Pablo Mateo shows you how to do it.
The hack is based on a weather station hack we’ve seen before, but makes it so the Kindle remains functional as an ereader still. This hack changes the wallpaper to an image that includes the weather, date, and your Google Calendar information. It takes a bit of work to set up a server and jailbreak the Kindle, but the end result is a far more useful screensaver than just an image. Head over to GitHub for the full setup guide and all the files you’ll need.
