Arduino Book...and the Pendulum Swing!

Here's a great booklet to accompany any new Freeduino purchase - "Getting Started with Arduino", written by Massimo Banzi (the co-founder of the Arduino Project).

This title is based on his free-download introduction PDF, but takes is much farther, guiding new electronics enthusiasts into how to use the Arduino / Freeduino in a project.


 Also cool is this little link we just received the other day from a customer of ours, Gary Gipson. Our book "Junkbots" was put to good use with this project! Instead of stationary electronics, these electronics swing! (Plus, it's darned cute!)

And continuing the blame-game, I gave him […]
