Beginnings

My name is Phil and this is the first blog post on The Mad Science Notebook. I'm building this site for a couple of reasons. First I'm trying to make a little extra income, and I'm hoping that the information found on this site will make it popular enough that it'll be profitable.

The second reason is that I just really like electronics and automation. I've been tinkering with electronics since I was a kid. I've always been fascinated with making machines do things. I have some experience in machine work and I like electronics. I've always wanted to build a really cool robot but I just don't have the time. I did build an airplane once. I have some custom electronics in there too.

I've come up with some ideas before that people tried to get me to produce and market. I just don't really have a heart for selling stuff. I'd rather come up with the ideas and let somebody else sell them. The problem is that those guys usually barely make a living while the ones selling the idea get rich. I figure that if I can use those ideas to generate traffic to this website I may be able to offset some of my income and that'll give me more time to play with these ideas.

I hope that you find this site useful and entertaining. If you have any suggestions please feel free to let me know.

Godspeed,

Phil
