COSM (used to be Pachube) helps connect little devices like the raspberry pi to the internet. You will need to do the following to use COSM.

• Setup a Account
• Create a Feed
• Save the API_KEY
• Save the FEED ID

Setup a Account

You will need to create a COSM account. Click on the blue "Get Started" circle to create a new account. It's your typical e-mail/password followed by password verification. You will need to check your e-mail and click the verification link.

Add a Feed

Click the blue plus to add a feed. 

Select Arduino

Give your new feed a title and tags.

Title: "Raspberry Pi Temperature" (or whatever you like)
Tags: raspberry pi, temperature, adc (or make up your own)
 
Select the "Create" button.

You need to extract the API_KEY and FEEDID from the code sample that COSM provides. These will go into the python script that we setup on the next page. The API_KEY lets COSM knows who is connecting and to which feed they want to send data.

In this example the API_KEY is: 5RNOO3ShYJxYiq2V2sgSRtz3112SAKxFQjNDQmNXc0RScz0g
The FEEDID is: 68872

Do not use those numbers, use your own!
