Comment on Radio Shack to start stocking Arduino, Other Goodies

They're really looking to make stronger ties with the "maker" community, and are ramping up their DIY cred by hiring Meredith Scheff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpZ7FyjGkGk (of NorthSkirt fame http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UktOOIK_6nU) at Noisebridge, and Ed Lewis at Instructables http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxRqGOSHbUg to do ads.

At first I was like "whoah," and then I got to the last part of the sentence "to do ads." That's still cool I guess.

Yeah, I had a really hard time trying to fit all that into one sentence :)

3D Printing has a lot of potential as a profitable niche for RadioShack to get into. It would certainly get me in the door.
