Maker Fair: Phil Torrone...the man, the myth, the Maker

Posted By: Laura Foy | Jun 1st, 2007 @ 1:41 PM

For the second year in a row I attended Maker Fair which is put on by Make Magazine. Now, while last year was a blast- this year was TWICE the fun and excitement. It was bigger and better. I managed to steal a few minutes with Phil Torrone, the Senior Editor of Make Magazine. After congratulating him on the event's success and his stylish white lab coat (who doesn't love a man in uniform?)- he told me what it takes to make the fair happen, to be a part of the fair, and how to get involved in the growing DIY community. Also...stay tuned for TONS more Maker Fair videos coming all this week.
