American Inventor - live blogging & chat with MAKE!

Join MAKE at the blog for live blogging on American Inventor, if you're on IRC hit irc.freenode.net and join #make if you want to chat with other Makers as the show airs. I'm not sure what to expect, MAKE covered the auditions and a lot of the new Maker-made sites afterwards but it's still a bit of a mystery of what we're all going to see.
American Inventor - Thursday, March 16 at 8/7c ABC - Link.
Pictured here, Stephen J. Hillenbrand, also known as "Mr. Lint." from our visit to the San Francisco auditions.

This should be pretty exciting. We were at the auditions with our invention, the WingDipper and the inventions were cool, creepy, wierd, and everything in between.
Should be a fun show to watch...

Kyle Myhra was right. Having a kid on American Inventor is "good TV." I thought his idea was a good one, much better than many of the others (edible snow globes). His heart and soul went into his invention, much like the guy who invented the portable weights. Unfortunately, due to the dismissal of Kyle, even the other great inventors can't keep me tuning in.
