Maker Faire Rome Welcomes Young Makers with Massive Kids Area

When not fawning over perfect word choices, I can be found on the nearest mountain, looking for untouched powder fields and ideal alpine lakes.

Last month was my first Maker Faire, in San Mateo, California. I knew what it would be, but I didn’t know what it would be like. The energy, the spirit of the attendees and the makers, gave the event that je ne sais quoi that made it unforgettable. It transcended, by far, any coverage — […]
