Built a clever gizmo? Wanna sell it online? Got a contest for ya
Have you built, or have you got a wicked scheme to build, an electronic gizmo you might want to sell? Well, as of today–together with Design News–we’re launching our first “Gadget Freak” contest seeking the cleverest, best-documented, and most marketable homemade gadget build. There’s a bunch of fine print, of course, but here’s the basics: The first place winner gets a thousand bucks plus a chance to sell their winning gadget through Makers Market Second- and third-place winners get $500 and $100, respectively. “Gadget,” for contest purposes, means an electronic device with sensing, motion, timing and/or networking elements. Entry form is here. Runs through July 13, California time.
