Update on Round Rock, TX Book Signing

The book signing last Saturday at the Barnes & Noble in Round Rock was a success and incredibly fun. It was great meeting everyone, answering questions, and signing copies of The Unofficial LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Inventor’s Guide. A lot of parents showed up with their children who are MINDSTORMS maniacs, but some adult fans of LEGO came by as well as someone from National Instruments (the company that developed NXT-G). Not surprisingly, I heard more than one person say, “We got the NXT set for Christmas!” I’m sure a lot of people got the NXT set for Christmas.

And, yes, I managed to keep Guard-Bot and Tag-Bot on the table. I programmed Guard-Bot to walk in a square and Tag-Bot to sit still and turn its head every seven seconds. Tag-Bot, of course, appeared as if it was examining its surroundings, and I got some funny responses from people walking by.

I’m planning on having another signing at a location in Austin–more on that later.
