Three of us went to check out the newborn hackerspace on Broad Street tonight, and OMG you guys: they have a 3d printer, they have nerds, they have robots!
These are our people.
I'll fill in some details tomorrow night at Dev Club, but for now:
- One of the founders beat Waterloo and UPenn at a NASA rover challenge
- There's a small 3D printer for club use
- Membership costs $100/month
- $50 for Military
- $50 for Students
- You get 24/7 access and a key
- You get a free pass to ALL their classes
- They're holding a competition for coolest Leap Motion app (the winner gets 3 months of membership free)
- They're hosting a TEDx next January
- It seems like most of the people there spent some time on the west coast
- They're only 2 months old
