A very quick post: I’m about to run out of the door to meet TechCrunch at Adafruit. Have a squizz at the video below; this is a really cute little add-on for your Pi that’s just been put out by w8bh.net. It’s an 8×8 matrix of LEDs that you can plug directly into your Pi’s GPIO and program to do neat stuff. You can buy one at mypishop.com. Discuss it among yourselves – I have to go and jump in a taxi!

 

 

Buy a Pi!
