It’s a battery-powered Arduino in a bracelet, programmed via an app.

A BRACELET, PEOPLE. How cool is that?

I wish these were around when I was a kid. (Yeah, I was the kind of kid who would have bought one of these "for my sister")

The diversity problem in IT isn’t going away on its own. Be a part of the solution – go buy a pair of Jewelbots for your niece and her best friend.

SQL Server people – George Stocker is the VP of Software Engineering. Yes, the same George Stocker who moderates StackOverflow and found one of the PASS password vulnerabilities.

The Kickstarter just started. Get over there. Let’s help them make a difference.

    Woo hoo, go George! I feel bad for the kids who have to wait til March to get their hands on this. I would probably order it in secret and reveal it only once it arrives.
