Live Images from Austin Maker Faire
I've set my Eye-fi card to automatically upload images as I take them from Maker Faire. Follow along and see what I see through my Flickr stream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ewilhelm/
I will periodically transfer the good images here.

Woot! I was there! Words can only hint at how awesome it was...
After tracking down there booth (wasn't to hard, I know the fairgrounds pretty well), Eric spotted me and we exchanged pleasantries. I went to go watch a robot fight but soon returned. I met Lamedust, Fungus, Noahw, and Christy (she recognized me!!) and had great fun hanging around the table, managing to answer questions from people. Eric gave me a tshirt and patch, and I got a look at the book, which looks really good BTW. I was a wee bit spaced out as I was recovering from both sleep deprivation as well as a headache, so hopefully I wasn't to weird... Eric showed me the data dumps to see how many accounts there where (something like 700k I think), as well as to see who logs in the most (I can't remember). I advised Ed (Fungus) on good swimming holes, ate orange M&M's, and had an awesome time. Hopefully they'll get my with Eric picture up...

hair to spare. Its there, and there and over there. Its everywhere, except up there.... Believe me, I know the feeling LOL although my back doesn't look like that, I am afraid that in a few years my ears will *sigh*

That looks more like an exo-arterial tree, rather then hair.... :-)

I got distracted by finding my dream car. I washed him yesterday. I didn't just wash him, I polished him. All my last car got was a hose-down when it got hard to see out the back window...
Reply 10 years ago
You have fairly inexpensive tastes-my dream car is a red Ferrari...
So what is the dream fedora?
Reply 10 years ago
yah, wide brim or narow?
Reply 10 years ago
Not really a fedora, more an Australian bush hat.

Reply 10 years ago
Well... technically I won one from the Burning Questions, and I never sent in for my patch, tshirt and bumper sticker...
Reply 10 years ago
