Get ready for a bold adventure! The Android Open ADK will be hitting the Maker Faire this weekend!

Tim bray:
This weekend is Maker Faire, and Google is all over it.

Following up on yesterday’s ADK post, we should take this opportunity to note that the Faire has chased a lot of ADK-related activity out of the woodwork. The level of traction is pretty surprising giving that this stuff only decloaked last week.
Mobile devices and DIY electronics make only too much sense together. It beats the portability of a laptop and provides interesting things like easily docking a small mobile to the electronic, or taking advantage of the various sensors found in a mobile (eg. camera or accelerometer).

I expect the ADK to be a huge hit.
