I really wish Siskiyou County could host a cool event like this! It’s called the Maker Faire and it is for our new age of crafters and artists. No, not ‘new age crafters’ - a new age OF crafters. Bazaar Bizarre will be there - their tagline is: “not your granny’s craft fair.” This is the perfect event for crafters, artists and especially techno geeks. I’ve been a huge fan of Etsy for a long time and subscribe to MAKE magazine. If you are not familiar with either and you like new, creative ideas, I encourage you to check them out. And if you’re going to be in the bay area this weekend you should make the San Mateo Makers’ Fair a scheduled stop.

Do it Bill!!! That would be great! There are a lot of creative people here, we just haven’t been greatly encouraged to express ourselves. Start a revolution, man!
