We tried hard to stick with an over-arching theme of alternative energy and reuseability (since that is what we focus on on KnowHow): <http://www.weknowhow.tv/2007/05/23/maker-faire/> ...and, of course, a little bit of Bre Pettis who shows you how to make a Make Podcast:) I know there were a bunch of folks out there shooting video for the Internets! I'm looking forward to seeing everyones interpretation of the event. It's like Roshomon, but without the death.
