RSSMaker Faire News -- Robot Magazine joins the fun
We are delighted to announce that Robot Magazine has joined us as a Pavilion Producer of Maker Faire.

Tom Atwood, Editor-In-Chief of Robot Magazine and program chair of the robotics program is working with the Maker Faire team and robotics Makers, clubs, vendors and educators to help orchestrate a truly delightful program of workshops, demonstrations and presentations throughout the Faire. Just a sampling of the many folks you can expect to see in the Maker Faire Robotics program include:
- Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman and Grant Imahara of Discovery Channel's MythBusters.
- Dave Calkins - President of the Robotics Society of America and founder of Robolympics.
