DESCRIPTION: Why NodeBots \n\n We want to show that node is an all-purpose\
 , fun tool by showing its potential with hardware. How? By bringing togeth
 er those interested in node and hardware hacking\, and giving them an open
  space to hack\, collaborate\, learn\, and share their results with others
 . Also your guide for the day is one of the people helping to create the n
 odebots environment\, so he wants all your realtime feedback about how thi
 ngs can be easier and better! \n\n Why the $10 ticket price? \n\n We want 
 to ensure that everyone who registers for a ticket is actually going to at
 tend and thats why we ask you to a very small fee. One slots are very limi
 ted so we want to ensure they go to people who will be present on NodeBots
  Day. The ticket price does go to cover refreshments that will be availabl
 e throughout the day for you. \n\n What Cool Stuff can I do? \n\n Checkout
  the Johnny-Five examples for some examples of cool stuff to do with Node 
 and Arduino. \n\n tl\;dr - You can do stuff with motors\, servos\, sensors
 \, LEDs\, in categories like home automation\, robots that move\, walk\, a
 nd dance\, and just about anything you can wire together. \n\n How \n\n BY
 OHardware -- Assume there will be no hardware waiting for you at this even
 t. You will need to purchase your own or find someone day of to team up wi
 th! No worries if this is your first time\, we have some suggestions: \n\n
  Here's a list of suggested kits for beginners: \n\n \n Sparkfun Inventor'
 s Kit \n MakerShed Starter Kit\n\n \n Also recommended is their Microcontr
 oller Starter Kit \n  \n Adafruit Starter Kit \n \n\n Also\, here is a lis
 t of parts providers for intermediate level: \n\n \n AdaFruit \n MakerShed
  \n Sparkfun Electronics \n \n\n But what do I need to attend? \n\n You wi
 ll definitely want to bring a laptop computer with some modern operating s
 ystem installed. You should also have downloaded and installed Node.JS ver
 sion 0.10.x from nodejs.org. Otherwise we will have internet available\, b
 ut if you feel adventuresome\, go ahead and install Johnny-Five\, which ma
 kes robot build incredibly fun and easy. \n\n We will probably also have e
 verything from drones to laser cutters to CNCs to sumobots\, so if you hav
 e ever had a crazy project in mind\, this is the time to make it happen! Y
 ou do not need to be proficient or even coding in node.js to attend\, just
  a willingness to try new things! \n\n But I don't know how the slightest 
 about electronics let alone robots \n\n That's okay! We will have mentors 
 who know how to get you up and running with both the ctronics and the code
 . We want to create a good environment for those new to hardware hacking. 
 \n\n Sponsoring \n\n Want to sponsor? Great! Contact @voodootikigod for in
 formation. We are looking for sponsors to provide lunch and extra hardware
  to our attendees. \n\n When\, Where \n\n NovaLabs\n11409-F Sunset Hills R
