Wired on geek graffiti - "The group of 12 graffiti artists surrounds its target, a sculpture in Manhattan known as The Cube, and waits for the signal to begin tagging it up. It's a daunting task -- the 15-foot sculpture in Astor Place was recently coated with anti-graffiti paint. But within seconds, The Cube is covered in LED Throwies, the latest innovation from the Graffiti Research Lab, or GRL, an open-source think tank dedicated to developing new methods and tools for street artists." - Link.

Am I the only one who's seen enough of the "LED Throwies" stuff? Okay, we get it already. You stuck an LED and watch battery to a magnet, and now you're chucking them at any object that contains ferrous metal. This isn't really all that "MAKEish", it's becoming kind of redundant.

BrK, you're not the only one.
This is really making lose interest in make. Along with yet another voltaic cell made with household parts, and yet another person built a pov toy.
They need to rename themselves "Made: Technology that's been there and done it".
