FIRST
May 11th, 2006 | Published in Google Blogger Buzz
Back in March, the Google Research blog posted details about our sponsorship of this year's FIRST - "For the Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology" - tournament:
"Google jumped at the opportunity to sponsor this organization after Dean Kamen (inventor of the Segway and the first implantable dialysis pump) spoke to a packed Google audience about his lifelong crusade to improve education in the United States. Dean founded US FIRST over 15 years ago, and from humble beginnings in the Northeast, FIRST has now grown to involve over 60,000 high school students all over the United States and the world."Blogger's been able to play a small but significant role in helping the teams share their experiences and accomplishments with the world, in the form of team photoblogs. Here are a few that are loaded with great photos and posts:
- RoboRaiders
- WilsonMagnet
- Royal Assault
- The Cat Attack
- The Midnight Mechanics
- Team Driven
