SXSW 07: The Dorkbot beer garden party

SXSW 07: The Dorkbot beer garden party screenshot
Naturally, we were magnetically drawn to last night's Dorkbot party, a movement dedicated to doing useful, geeky, and interesting things with electricity. The outdoor event actually ran on keg-power though, as hundreds lined up to guzzle down brew and listen to speakers from Make magazine and meet the robotic creations of engineers. We bumped into all kinds of nice people and executed some extreme robot makeovers of our own -- check out the gallery below.
