If you live anywhere near San Francisco, or can get there by train, plane or bus, you have to, have to, have to go to the Maker Faire, Make Magazine's first ever convention.


Place: San Mateo Fairgrounds - San Mateo, CA
Dates: Saturday, April 22nd & Sunday, April 23rd

 


The Maker Faire Firetruck

Geeks, do-it-yourselfers, hackers, students, and everyone else will find tons of awe-inspiring exhibitions, cool things to buy and make, and sweet project kits. I guarantee the internets will be buzzing with all the great stuff that comes out of this event.


Get Make on newsstands everywhere.

Senior Editor of Make Magazine, Phillip Torrone brought some great projects that anyone can do.

Hack your Roomba! Roomba Frogger is for deviant robots.

LED Throwies make for subversive, 21st Century graffiti.
Magnets + LED lights + batteries = FUN!
