Maker Faire 2008

Sun, 19 October, 2008

How much fun is the Maker Faire? My 5-year-old had as much fun as I did, making it a perfect father-daughter geek outing.

I missed the Arduino talk, which is doubly-sad since I really need a kick in the pants to take mine out of the box and use it.

Tesla coils play the "Dr. Who" theme. Inhaling the ozone in the top row, my kiddo said "It smells sweet, Daddy." Good girl.

The "Austin Bike Zoo" had its full menagerie
