2011 is here and that means a chance for another great year for
HackPittsburgh! We had a terrific and very active 2010. We had members at
all three Maker Faires this year with HackPGH representing from coast to
coast while still hitting a few smaller faires too. The shop competed and
placed well in the Hackerspaces in Space competition which launched our very
successful space balloon program into full speed. We had three weddings in
the shop with a final engagement slipped in at the last minute. The Hacker
Hotline is in full swing with spaces all around the country excited to join
us. Our Powerwheels racer has come into the shop and work has started to
bring us to the races in 2011. These and many other projects, outings, and
successes have given us a great momentum moving into this year.
We are starting off with a great week. Monday we are back to our normal
hours and hope to see many of you in the shop. Tuesday the lock picking
group returns, if you haven't come in yet to give it a shot you might be
surprised how fun and easy it is. Wednesday is a very important members
meeting with a vote being held to fill our empty council position. Friday
Sayan will be giving a talk on how to combine the Android and Arduino
platforms using Bluetooth. Then finally to top it all off we are making this
weekend the triumphant return of SHOPCATION! Saturday and Sunday we will be
in the shop busting out as many projects as we can.
I would like to thank you all again for making 2010 an amazing year and I
look forward to all the good times and fun projects we will be working on
tis year!
Thanks,
Matt Stultz
