Despite the blizzard we are going ahead with our Show & Tell tonight. Our venue has changed from the Fab Lab at the Business & Technology campus and instead we're all coming over to your house... (In the form of a webcast).

We are planning to have a Skype Conference and push that out to Ustream for broadcast. Failure is an option, we're trying to piece things together this afternoon to be ready by 6:00 pm.

Makers of Things

I've finally decided I've got to figure out this "Blog" thing... Is it just a journal entry, a rant about a supposed injustice, or just blowing off steam to sooth the soul ?

I'm calling this month "Thing-a-week-month" and  So  far , So good. I've Made Peanut Brittle , Pineapple-Ginger Preserves, NewOrleans Pralines, and Fruitcake-coconut Muffin cookies.

I'm guessing it must be mainly a journal of events that have either just taken place or are in the planning stages of becoming something that a Maker could brag about.

Make:KC Show & Tell - December 7, 2010

When: 6:00 to 8:00 pm

Where: HMS Beagle Science Store.

Live webcast event.

'Tis the Season when thoughts turn to decorating for the holidays. We have Ken Crow and Ron Carlson from Hallmark showing us how art and engineering come together to create Hallmark's Keepsake Ornaments.

We have an interesting lineup planned for tonight's Show and Tell from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the HMS Beagle Science Store. -- Super Awesome Sylvia is planning to check in with us and talk about some of her projects. We will be showing one of her videos where she is working on programming an Arduino microcontroller.

Setting up this month's Show and Tell took a few minutes longer to get equipment ready for our first live webcast. Curt McMillan and his crew tonight included Richard Brull, both seen in this photo. They regularly broadcast live at the Inventors Club of KC.
