Philip Lindsay translates technology. You may know him better as follower from rancidbacon.com.

In addition to teaching introductory Arduino workshops Philip has contributed SD, USB and networking code to the Arduino eco-system.

When not exploring technology for the fun of it, Philip creates documentation, code libraries and example projects for SparkFun Electronics and other clients.

Tim O’Reilly once called Philip a “troublemaker” for his early Google Maps reverse engineering efforts.

Philip has a particular interest in the areas where design, art, craft and technology intersect.
