Makin’ Moves

And we're doing it with Optimus Prime's help!
March 30th, 2009 - Don

So, the Bots 4 Tots train is a-movin’. We’ve got the site up, though in BETA (that’s like a public test, for the Luddites among you), and taking donations as well as sign-ups for our first session.

Word has it that Alexis will be writing some copy to explain the system a little better. Basically, you can donate to the program, or sign a child up for the sessions – they are not related directly. I’m sure she’ll say it better than I can.

While I’m writing to you here, I’d like to post a pic of my man Optimus Prime the first robot I ever owned:

This is the real deal, original, 1984

Why is this relevant? Well, because Optimus got me interested in robotics, and robotics got me interested in getting other people interested in robotics and boom, here we are: Bots 4 Tots.

Sure, this is just a toy – but the toy spurred my imagination whis has been inspired ever since to make real life robots.

Maybe one day I’ll make a real Optimus Prime. Better yet, maybe one day your kid will.
