Go to Post Being in FIRST and putting the focus on the robot is like building a robot and putting the focus on the bandsaw (or mill or lathe, or whatever you do your machining with). The robot is a tool we use to play the game, the game is a tool we use to inspire and teach. - GeeTwo [more]

Talking Awesome thing to do while away from FIRST

Well, I found this on the Internet today:

http://pmog.com/

It's called the Passively Multiplayer Online Game, or PMOG. Anyone who uses Firefox can get in on it. Basically, you register and get the toolbar, then sign in. Then, as you are browsing the Internet (with Firefox), you can place Crates (with currency, armor, or whatever) for friends, place Mines for unsuspecting PMOGers, which blast away items and generally cause havok, or you can start or create a mission, where other PMOGers follow your trail through the Internet for a reward, such as items, experience, or just the opportunity to squeeze a bit more life out of the Internet. Those are just some of the things you can do with PMOG. It's just something to take up the lives of fellow FIRST members while they're NOT thinking about robotics. Try it. You'll like it.
