 * [|Project GIO Quake Detection] || An open plan earthquake sensor that works with a quake sensor network like QCN (Stanford [|Quake Catcher Network] ). (Hey Michelle, it uses Solar!) ||
 * [|Hack The Future] || Hack the Future is fashioned on SuperHappyDevHouse, where the wunderkinds who fancy creation over computer cracking talk tech, swap blue-sky ideas and collaborate to come up with "the next big thing." Hack the Future is a one-day party and hackathon for youth in grades 5-12, to show them what it's like to be a hacker and see if it's for them. ||
 * [|TinkerCad] || Design in 3D what you've always dreamed of, but never thought possible. Until now. ||
