We have a workshop as usual tomorrow. We start at 4PM.
I won't be able to make it this session. Sorry guys!
No one but Silvio and me showed up, very disappointing guys.
Apologies from mhammad and I who had a car accident a couple of days ago and are trying to keep movement at a minimum. I hope we will be there next time.
Hey guys
i'm placing an order on dhgate for some sensors and shields for arduino mega, so how do i know if a certain shield is compatible with arduino mega? Do all arduino uno shields are compatible with mega?
i've read somewhere that mega's pins are differently located than uno but can be worked around using jumpers.

Edit: got the answer. I thought sharing sharing it with you.
Quoting from adafruit forum :
The i2c pins on the Mega are not the same as the i2C pins on an Uno. In the R3 version of the boards, the i2c pins are replicated in a pair of common pins for compatibility
Jad is quite sick so there won't be any workshop today. See you next week.
Aww hope he gets better soon.
Alright see you all next week.

Tomorrow is the last weak i am forced to skip session, finals this week so making it to the workshop is an impossibility.

However I will re-become a regular after that. Hope to see you chaps soon
See you all tomorrow! :)
LebGeeks Extended Electronics Workshop has officially 'closed'.

Innovo is however, opening its doors every Saturday from 5:00PM to about 8:00PM for assitance on any matter concerning the topics discussed within the Workshop. Furthermore, if there's anything you would like demonstrated/assisted with, you may simply request it here and hopefully it can be tackled the following Saturday.

We appreciate all the effort everyone placed into making this happen and we thank Innovo and Jad for their patience.

See you saturdays!
It's a shame really, i feel partly guilty since I had fewer participation than i should have. But in any case I thank J4D and everyone for this and I hope we see you guys soon

What are the odds of getting the workshop going again?
6 months later
i will be in if you redo this again
a month later
is there a possibility to re do these sessions?
Let me see at least 10 committed members. We can resume this.
I just want to salute you all for that spirit especially Jad and everyone who is putting much effort to spread knowledge.
What you are doing is great.
