http://mbed.org Calvin is an embedded engineer. A professional. He knows microcontrollers inside out, and can debug the trickiest of problems. But he's so used to things being tricky, he's forgotten it doesn't have to be that way just to build a prototype.
He dismissed mbed for a while; it was a toy, it'd be too limited, or have no benefit over his usual tools. Or something. Anyway, this wasn't for experts like him. But then he tried it. And it all made sense. Now he uses mbed whenever he wants to prototype an idea. With the right tools for the job, he's more productive than ever.
To see how mbed can help anyone create things with microcontrollers, even experts, go to http://mbed.org and follow on http://twitter.com/mbedmicro

You know, I really want this thing to see usage in a Tickle-Me-Elmo. Would freak little kids out...
