Open-Source Hardware Hacker Ladyada Awarded Entrepreneur of the Year

ptorrone writes "Limor 'Ladyada' Fried of open-source hardware company Adafruit Industries was awarded Entrepreneur of the Year by Entrepreneur Magazine. From the article: 'Recognizable by her signature vivid-pink locks, Fried (or Ladyada, as she is known on the internet) is one of the dominant forces behind the maker movement--a legion of do-it-yourself-minded folks who create cool things by tweaking everyday technology. Last year New York City-based Adafruit did a booming $10 million trade in sales of DIY open-source electronic hardware kits.'"

Congratulations

Congratulations to her. She does run a truly innovative company that is based on actual production making actual profit. More companies should start doing that. You can't eat "projected revenue", drive it, or wear it against the cold.
