Maker Faire 2007

I’m at Maker Faire 2007 all weekend down at the San Mateo Fairgrounds, hanging out with makers, checking out all the great stuff and shooting some photos. All of my worlds have converged at the same place, during the same time. It’s really quite amazing.

Here are is my full gallery of Maker Fair 2007 photos from both Saturday and Sunday. I also have some photos from Thursday’s Maker Day.

A common thing heard throughout the weekend was, “Maker Faire, it’s like Burning Man, but with/without the [fill in the blank].”

The next Maker Faire takes place in Austin, October 20 & 21, 2007.
