Will Mai-Z be here or in robotics?

    Hello Whit!

    That's a good question. Seems those categories overlap just perfectly!

    What are your thoughts on it (or anyone else reading this) ??

    My initial feeling is that Robotics might be the place. Cyber:Bot is also coming up there too, and that category might attract a wider range of people?
    But then... Mai-Z is 100% all about micro:bit, whereas Cyber:Bot is a hybrid of micro:bit & Propeller.... hmm... so perhaps micro:bit might be the place!
    Darn-- now I can't decide :)

    In terms of attempting to help direct traffic, I could add a little Mai-Z logo & banner at the top of either category that directs Mai-Z questions to the other category.

    Other ideas....

    • Rename/Append one of those categories to include the name "Mai-Z", like "micro:bit & Mai-Z"
    • Add a new category for Mai-Z (will it have much traffic... maybe that's a thing for later, as we could always split Mai-Z threads into their own category once it has enough regular action. Quiet threads tend to add inefficiencies).
    • Do nothing... just see where people post - fate will decide!

    @VonSzarvas,

    Those who are interested will certainly find it wherever it lands!

    I'll keep watching. I just received my Mai-Z, the micro:bit v2 GO Bundle, and the Screen-Free Programming Pack for Mai-Z (took advantage of the sale), BUT it is a Father's Day present, and I am trying not to play till then. :D
    In the meantime, a little research and studying couldn't hurt.

    Sounds like a little temptation might be good for the soul! (and your self-education until the big day !!)

    In the meantime I've tried something with the category name... the words flow and complement so nicely I couldn't resist :)

    @VonSzarvas,

    Perfect!
