| What new pioneering/hobby/DIY field will sprout from EE, what's the next need? |

| RoGeorge:
Seems like at first it was the need for communication and radio. That led to the apparition of ham radio and EE as a hobby. - Then it was the need for audio equipment that made people start soldering their own power amplifier. - Then, the need for computing that make the spread of digital design, TTLs and the microcomputers era. - Then, the need for small automation that led to the microcontrollers for the masses and the "Arduino" era. What's the current fashion, or the next big rage, a techie can do for a hobby? |

Alternative energy, we're already seeing this as "DIY powerwalls" and the recent events in California and Texas are going to raise interest. |
