I wanted to share with you a fantastic website dedicated to electronics and programming – www.digital-diy.com The guys over at digital-diy.com have been a great help to me on numerous occasions when it has come to fixing a problem in my code with my projects over the years. Infact, it was due to digital-diy that

I thought i’d share a link to a retro video game site that I made before I got into microcontroller programming. The site has not been updated in years but I keep it there for nostalgic purposes. I thoroughly enjoyed making the site and learned a lot from making it. I had a very active

GBCartRead is an arduino based original Gameboy cartridge reader made by Alex at inside gadgets. I am a huge fan of retro video games and have quite a collection of gameboy consoles and cartridges myself. I have wanted to make a cart reader / writer for a while now but have just not had the

Tindie is a site I stumbled upon that allows electronic designers (like me!) to sell my projects online through a site of like-minded electronics enthusiasts. You can also browse and buy various projects that other people have made. Click HERE to check it out.

Bitfogav (a resident forum member) has come up with a great shield for the new Firewing platform. I especially like this shield because it’s just the sort of thing that I would make! Click HERE to check it out.
