Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
UStream at the time doesn’t have (working) recording software, apparently, so unless a viewer tapes it, you’re out of luck (which is what you were asking for anyways
I’ll see what I can do for recording, I’m already in the chat as we speak with auto-log on (as of 7:15 PM ET).
Only thing I see being a hassle is the barage of “ustreamer-whoever (long-arse@reverse-dns-address-string) has entered” “ustreamer-whatever has left” messages on my client.
I missed it, but it would have been nice if I could have watched it after the fact. I went to the ustream page and the only available video is one that shows product assembly.
Sad to say, but I’m from the Tivo generation – I don’t watch media in real time. Is the video posted anywhere? Can you post it if it isn’t?
Awesome! Will tune in.
Here in europe it will be late in the night …
I always miss the chats …
Any chance someone can record a screencast ?

I figured I may be able to record it myself …
I’ll just start gtk-recordMyDesktop and stop it tomorrow morning.
I hope it’ll work.
