If you're anywhere near Austin this weekend, check out Maker Faire Austin at the Travis County Fairgrounds. I'll be there with a few friends and a coworker. Drop me an email with your cell # and we can try to meet up.
Admission is $25 per day. There will be a large number of DIY enthusiests and plenty of vendors. I'm looking forward to seeing ArcAttack and the RoboGames.
There is plenty more info at their website: makerfaire.com: Maker Faire
