Gregory's ServerThat’s it! I hope you liked this sneak peek of my collection– if you did, consider backing the book since this is the level of quality I’ve been aiming at for the visual side… there are a lot more photos like these, and of course a lot more great stories attached to them.

@mwichary: Thanks for that thread. Gives me much more of an idea what to expect from your book. @mwichary this was awesome! Thank you! I can’t wait to get the book.  @mwichary Your book is gorgeous, I backed your kickstarter within minutes of being notified, and I look forward to receiving it. But perhaps a photo gallery (e.g. Flickr or Google Photos) or a traditional blog may be better for publishing dozens of photos. Doing so on a microblogging platform saturates the feed.  @amoroso What’s really nice in this scenario is the engagement – people can comment and share individual photos or talk to each other about a specific keyboard that resonated with them. With a blog post or Flickr or whatever you get a monolithic dead gallery. Thanks for backing! @mwichary Good point. Still, it may help to announce you're going to post a lot so that your followers are prepared. @mwichary I don’t know. This one came to me from someone who had it in their garage for a long time after getting it from someone else. Professionally made metal case and PCBs with a couple of wire patches. socketed PIC16C73A microcrontroller, 7 other 74 logic chips. Bears the serial number 1015 which suggests a couple of dozen were made. @mwichary Four LEDs, including “S2” which is one of the red keys on the left. |
@mwichary gah. I really want this book but can't really justify it. Maybe there'll be an edition in future that I will treat myself to ❤️
