I got an email from someone mentioning a link from Hackaday, which we certainly follow, but somehow missed the special article covering VCF East. At one point I had spoken to some people who were asking questions a bit different than the usual potential customers, and then they mentioned being from Hackaday. It was excellent news to hear VCF East was getting large enough for Hackaday to come out, but then getting a mention was a real surprise!

I suspect a lot of my customers are readers of sites like Hackday, since we’re the kinds of people who like to build things, hack existing projects, and experiment. If you haven’t look at Hackaday, I strongly suggest you take a good look at their site for all kinds of cool ideas for things to try.
