It’s GeekUp time already, so time to announce the happenings at next Wednesday’s GeekUp.

We have a bit of a one-off special this month with Rob Lee of Rattle Research speaking about “Hardware Hacking for Software People”.

Arduino DiecimilaWe’ll have some Arduino boards for people to play with, kindly donated by tinker.it. So if you feel like having a go, bring your laptop along and Rob will show you how to take your first steps into the world of hardware hacking.

There’s still time to squeeze in a 20:20 - if anyone’s up for the challenge (this month, or indeed another month), please do get in touch!

Do tell us if you’re coming
