Monday May 24 is Victoria Day in Canada. We'll be using the old Queen's Birthday as an excuse to twiddle our toes in the grass and watch robots roam free. We'll be back to work Tuesday morning, bright and early!
This new site corrects a slew of issues with the current website while adding or improving a number of features we think should please everyone. Because of the downtime needed to transfer & verify data from the old site to the new,
Our Website Will Be Unavailable From 2:00pm MST Until 8:00pm MST, This Saturday February 25th.
After that, the site will be ready to take orders through our new streamlined order process.
Given how long we've been kicking around on the web, there's a ton of content that's being migrated at the same time, so if you happen to come across something gone awry (that we didn't already catch), we'd be awful appreciative if you could use the handy form that we'll be providing (links will be posted with the new site) for reporting missing/broken content, bugs, and of course general feedback.
Also, because of the way the passwords are encrypted on the current site, all passwords will be reset for the new site. In order to avoid spamming people, this will be purely opt-in, meaning you'll only be prompted to claim your account & set a password the first time you try to log in.

There's also a ton of new features and content I can't talk about just yet, but rest assured that there are some very cool things on the horizon.
On a final note, as part of our commitment to Open Source and the sharing of knowledge, I'll be posting about some of the issues I ran into and the solution to those issues, particularly those that were previously poorly/undocumented APIs (ie Paypal).

It's really nice to receive pics of projects people have built out of our book "Junkbots". Here's one of the latest: the Pendulum by Christopher Pepe. Nice magnetic suspension mechanism! Read More...
