The @CraftsMANhammer tweeting hammer prototype |
I have a new personal challenge:
I'm going to do four 72-hour prototype building sprints on four different projects in the next four weeks and write about the results here.Where this idea came from:
While at a party on a recent Saturday night, I received an email from a potential client, an ad agency. They are about to pitch for the business of a major tool manufacturer, am I available to make a hammer that is motion sensitive and sends out tweets? Oh, and can I deliver it by Wednesday?My response was 1) yes, I'm available, 2) wait, do you mean THIS Wednesday, three days from now?
By the time my estimates were approved and I was given the green light to start work (Sunday afternoon), I had almost exactly 72 hours to deliver a prototype.
