DudeIWantThat.com: A few random soundbites from Circuit Scribe, a rollerball pen filled with magical (i.e., specially developed reactive silver) ink that enables users of all ages with average or better fine motor skills to draw circuits on demand:
"Instant robot guts."
"Goodbye breadboard."
"No shaking, no squeezing, no goop, no smell, no waiting for ink to dry."
"Circuit Scribe is for Makers, STEM Educators, Artists, Kids, & Life Hackers."

I saw this video a few days ago, and thought it was an amazing idea. It really appealed to me because as a kid, I thought that science was fascinating but constantly found myself having trouble understanding the concepts without a concrete example. I remember distinctly being incredibly confused when my grandpa tried to explain how electricity worked for the first time, because I simply had no visual support to help me understand. This pen would be so incredibly useful in classrooms, as a cheap and easy way to go beyond explaining what a circuit is like, and creating one without having equipment expenses that schools with limited budgets might not be able to afford.
And it seems like such a cool object to play and experiment with, I know I'd like to have one.
What a fascinating and ground breaking product. This device could be used by a wide range of people and skill levels. This could be a really fun way for students to learn about basic circuits in school and older people to become fascinated by this technological advancement. I find the interface of the product to be extremely user friendly, which will allow a wider demographic to experience this product. The kit is also mostly very minimalistic and uses simple materials to replicate complete principles. Not only can this product be used to create some fun light-up birthday cards, this technology can also be used for very complex systems, including touch navigation. I think this product is going to be such a hit in education and for computer geeks who are interested in experimenting with new technologies. Some really cool things are going to be made with this product in the near future and I can't wait to se what gets invented next.
