[dorkbotsea-blabber] Arduino 101?

[Mike Payson]

Hey Chris,

I'd be very interested. My company (www.maximumrobotics.com/?s=wiring) sells
the Wiring board (basically the Arduino on steroids), but I've been so busy
that I haven't had time to do much with it. I've finally set aside some time
today to work with it, but I'm sure there'll still be plenty to learn next
month.
