If you are thinking about entering the 2009 Bay Area Maker Faire, there’s still time!

You have one week left to submit your entry form.

Make:SF is meeting at Instructables HQ tomorrow (Feb. 10th) at 6:30PM.

There is a $5 suggested donation to help cover costs.

More details @ meetup.com

Guess what?  The Maker Faire Bay Area 2009 Call for Makers is now online!

The Maker Faire will take place on May 30th and 31st this year at the San Mateo Expo Center (the same location as previous years).

Being in the Faire is an amazing experience.  Last year I showed off my techniques for building wiring harnesses and met many cool and interesting people.  Makers also get free admission to some special events surrounding the Faire including workshops and performances.

If you have an idea but you’re not sure how to present it or if it’s right for the Faire, come to the Make:SF meeting on Feb 8th and get help from other local Makers!

Proposals are due by March 31st.  There is still plenty of time to finish up that project you’ve been working on and submit it to the Faire!

Last week I started blogging over at Make:SF, home of the unofficial San Francisco Make: fanclub.

Expect to see me posting over there occasionally about events, meeting recaps, and other goings-on.

As resident WordPress guru I’ve also been making some tweaks to the site to make it better serve club members.

Make:SF typically meets at TechShop in Menlo Park on the 1st Sunday of the month, and recently has also been meeting at Instructables HQ in San Francisco on the 2nd Tuesday.

Two big meetings in the SF art/tech/DIY/make scene are happening tonight:

Make:SF Meeting @ Instructables HQ 6:30PM

Dorkbot @ Monkeybrains 7:30PM

Both meetings are in the same building/complex so it should be quite possible to go to both (at least that’s my plan).
