==Interview with a Cyborg==

We interviewed Amal Graafstra about his creepy cool human RFID/Cyborg
project. Amal embedded an RFID tag in his hand to easily open his car
door, home, and to be used as his "password" for a Windows login prompt,
all by simply waving his hand. RFID stands for Radio Frequency
Identification; it allows the storing and retrieval of data usually
through a RFID tag and transceiver. Amal outlines the gear he used as
well
as the projects he's working on.

We also rounded up a lot of great information, photos, links, and
resources, and then we point to a new group of DIY cyborgs.
