I’m a first-time emailer, long-time reader. I did my first Arduino tutorials on Ladyada’s site in 2007, and I’ve been hooked since then. I wrote an iOS app find my Arduino over Bonjour and talk to it. It’s call Ciao, and the App Store approved it today. I hope you like it. You’re site (and store) has been very influential in my electronics development, and I really appreciate the hard work you put into it.
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.

Nice idea, but it does seem a bit expensive at $4.99? Will probably buy it though just to try it out.
Looks good. I might just snag this. I don’t suppose it will work over the web since it’s Bonjour, though… Next version??
I bought it. Works quite well
