Well, it's been a few weeks since the last update. We have a few big projects on the burner - we're not quite ready to make any announcements yet, but keep your eyes open in the next few months.
But don't fret - there are some things we can share with you this week. For instance, we've just brought in two new books from Make:

But wait, there's more!
Rudy, one of our most excellent interns, has made an Intructables for upgrading an Ardweeny with socket headers and stronger pins. Check it out here!
