-=- I was once offered a job designing a database but the condition was that I learned how to use an Arduino. This job didn't work out, but I am now interested in learning more about how to make the Arduino work and make some cool projects with it. Here Hive account@makerhacks shows a very cool project that might be just the start that I need to learn, have some fun and possibility make some very handy projects with. If you are interested in making things, especially in tech or 3D, you may want to follow Hive account@makerhacks. -=-

-=- Christmas in February? Okay well he posted this in late January but still. Hive account@nickmorphew, your name is Nic[k] as well? Niccceee! But back to the topic at hand. Here he writes about the holiday and it is very interesting. He put a lot of work into this piece and it is a good read, really worth checking out. From food, to pregnancies in the family, adventure to Christmas presents. An all around post that took some effort to put together. Something we try to highlight here at
