MAKE: Blog: Maker Fair!

Maker Fair!

We had our coming out party and our first "Maker fair" at Etech this week. Think of it as a science fair, with beer. A dozen or so Makers showed off their projects, gadgets, hacks and more. We'll have some more photos up soon, but here's the first batch on Flickr. And here's a great overview from Make Fair participant Robert Kaye.

My other half just came home to tell me to check this out as he wants to take the kids there this weekend. Is it suitable for kids? I wonder if he's going for the beer or the tech!
Cheers
