I'm always amazed how many not-so-random people I meet are into Arduino, and how many of them began interested in programming because they cut and pasted a few sketches which they then tweaked.

Got any current projects? My non-existent free time is devoted to a track driven, maze solving robot.

I plan on using one in a EE senior design course, making an IR tracker using Wiimote camera with some servos for full pan and tilt control. Also going to interface a nunchuck for a manual control mode.

Sounds great - hope you keep a diary blog of your progress.
