Last night, the MAKE crew had a blast at the frog design / Microsoft SXSW Interactive Opening Party. We ran two tables making LED throwies and two more making Brushbots. Thanks to frog and Microsoft for playing host and to everyone who came by and chatted, shared a drink, and/or built something with us! If you didn’t catch our live streaming footage from the party, not to worry: It’s archived at the link, below.
