Maker Faire Round Up and Chatterbox Updates

A Sincere THANK YOU for all the LOVE and SUPPORT!

We are beyond humbled by the amazing response that we've received from people all over the world. A huge thank you to all our supporters all over the world.  🌈🙏🏻

Last week, we were at SF Bay Area Maker Faire giving kids and parents the first large scale, public and hands-on opportunity to build and program Chatterbox. The LOVE ❤️ and feedback we received was absolutely amazing!

Our takeaway after speaking to thousands of parents, educators and makers is that lots of people share our concerns over privacy violations and are having a hard time reconciling how to balance technology and kids without creating "screen zombies."

If you didn't catch our coverage from Maker Faire, check out Roger Cheng's piece in Hackaday. Chatterbox founder, Kevin Elgan, will also be doing a LIVE interview for Hackster.io on Wednesday @ ~11:30am Pacific. We'll share the link in a follow-up update.

A special THANK YOU to all our supporters that came out to talk to us at Maker Faire. We've heard your feedback and will incorporate it into our roadmap for Chatterbox.
