Kurt gave some insight on the foundation and how their organization protects online privacy rights of the individual.
Our Social Greg at Maker Faire 2012, interviews Clay Reber with a research group from UC Berkeley who has created an application turning your iPhone into a microscope called CellScope.

Another Nerdstalker interview from the 2012 O'Reilly Maker Faire. Greg Viloria aka SocialGreg interviews Kazu Terasaki of GlueMotor. Typical maker, Terasaki does it for the love of his hobby. GlueMotor is an Open Source interface from KTLaboratory. No need for rubberband power anymore when you have an interface as easy as this.
Adolfo Foronda of Nerd Stalker interviews the Founder of Luma League, Tim Z Falconer at Maker Faire.
Started in April 2011 in Alameda, CA, Luma League has made and deployed bilirubin phototherapy lights (commonly called “bili lights”), and the calibration meters that go with them, to hospitals in Achham, Nepal; Goma, D.R. Congo; and St.-Marc, Haiti.
At the 2012 O'Reilly Maker Faire, there were all types of makers in the Tech Pavilion. Makers are not people who make physical objects but also make their dreams a reality.

If you love gaming, you can contribute to their cause at www.digitalgamemuseum.org/.
At the 2012 O'Reily Maker Faire, we stumbled upon Marcus Schappi of Ninja Blocks.
