KWartzLab

September 1, 2009 marks the first official day for members to work in the region's very own "hackerspace". Last night, makers of all stripes were voted in as members by the board of KWartzLab (a not for profit, incorporation) in a ceremonial handing out of the keys. I can't wait to see what projects come out of this place. To say the folks there are creative would be an understatement :)

To think this whole thing got rolling when I asked for a blog post to go out on the Makezine blog is a bit humbling. I'm not a paying member of the group myself at this time, but I support them 100%. I'm so glad that there were enough ambitious and enthusiastic people to get things rolling, and I appreciate that these folks were encouraged by my enthusiasm, and that they didn't listen to me the times when I went "off my rocker".

Update... a blog post on the topic with photo's is over on DW's blog at KWartzlab.ca.
