#22How did you make this google doc work like this? Pretty cool usage of the medium.
It seems like it's just a "published" google doc.
I've made one that describes the process, if you are interested: http://goo.gl/Ykq88g

#23I missed the youtube video the first time around: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QgeQAiSmM8 It's hilarious how while it's writing it looks like two small arms cupping the marker. Slap on a smiley-face sticker and you're ready to go to market.
It would be fun to see it write in your own handwriting.
Also, I was thinking something like this [0]! :)

#26I'm fascinated by this project, but I also find it kind of unsettling. I think the "arms" make it fall into the Uncanny Valley for me.

The writing on this one is much nicer! Add selective erase so only one character is (usually) ever erased and you've got yourself a very neat novelty clock.

#30We made on of these at my school - kid's thought it was incredible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClEEPBDfA0Y
We want to make ones that sit vertically on our actual whiteboards and run off more permanent power-supplies.
