Behind the Scenes at the permiere of Make:television @ Geekdad - Dan writes -

MAKE:television invited GeekDad to their premiere event in Minnesota this week. GeekDad John and I played with some of the projects they built on the air, met the host, John Park and got a preview of the series. It was a fun evening and a fitting start to a great program...

....So, if you are already actively making, you can catch the show for a few tips and techniques. If you've considered yourself allergic to power tools, it just might cause you to rethink your tinkering skills and start that trebuchet. Try your local PBS station or look for one of the ubiquitous webby options.

Thanks to Nick and Heidi at TPT for inviting us, to Dale Dougherty and John Park from Make for sharing their vision with us and Robert Stephens of Geek Squad for sponsoring season one and giving me the phrase "Minnesota is the Russia of America"
