Fab Labs (mp3 file)

A Science Friday segment. The idea that what happened with computers might happen with elecronics fabrication is so cool. Just stop for a second and think what you'd make if you could build anything. I'd probably make something trivial, some hybrid between electronic and old-school board games. But people with real jobs, proper artisans, could make some cool stuff with a lowered barrier to entry into elecronics manufacturing.
