Does your electronics hobby qualify you as an inventor?
When you build an electronic circuit, is the circuit itself an invention, or is electronics just the means to an end? As hobbyists, we are by nature building unique devices and improving on old ones. Do you consider circuits of your own design to be inventions in their own right?
And welcome to our new sponsors Thimble and Seeed Studio. Be sure to check 'em out!
That's It. Enjoy!

A WEB CONTROLLED MUSIC AND INTERNET RADIO PLAYER
