The Possibilities of Pi It's been just over a year since Raspberry Pi was launched and started the computing revolution. Now the PiFace Digital, Gertboard , WiPi and PiView present endless possibilities, and we're celebrating them all month. View our first ever Google + Hangout at IIT (Illinois Institute of Technology) engineering school in Chicago where element14 luminaries Drew Fustini and Cliff Ortmeyer demoed the Pi and some of its mind-blowing accessories. The accessory fun continues tomorrow at a webinar with Drew and element14 blogger Cabe Atwell. And don't forget to listen to Ben Heck's birthday message . It's never too late to join the Pi Party.
