Good Bye "Flappy Bird"


Flappy bird is an extremely addicting mini game the was available on the Android and IOS App Marketplaces. The owner has recently took the amazingly popular game off the appstore, crushing many players hearts. Dong Nguyen, the 29 year old creator of the game was making $50,000 off of add revenue at the peak of the game's success. He removed the game off the appstores claiming that it had "become an addictive product" and that "to solve the problem, it's best to take down 'Flappy Bird'." Whatever the reason for deleting it though, I along with many Flappy Bird fans will always remember this fun little game.

How To Make a Recycle Robot

Hey Guys!
I recently make a video on how to make a Recycle Bot. The first time I made one was at my school, it was for home E.C.class. My home E.C. teacher had a couple boxes of things that we could use to decorate our robots. In one of the boxes was a bunch of electric parts. Being the geeky kids that we are, my friend and I put TONS of electronics on our robots. Most of the other students just decorated their robots with felt and markers. I have a feeling that me and my friend's robots will stand out from the other robots when we display them at the school open house. :)
Here is the video:
