Sneak peek at my finished Wifi Radio project!

While I’m busy working on part ten of my series on building a wireless router-based DIY streaming internet radio, I couldn’t resist sharing a few photos of the finished project.

If you want to see the radio in person, stop by Expo Hall Booth 166 at the Maker Faire in San Mateo, CA this weekend.  I’ll be there to demonstrate the radio and answer questions!

Maker Faire Bay Area 2009: Call for Makers

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!
