Thanks to the Internet, we understand more deeply than ever that everyone on the planet is connected. The disasters that have hit Japan feel close to home, and those of us at O'Reilly, No Starch, and Tidbits want to do something to help the Japanese people recover and rebuild. We know many of you do, too. Working with the O'Reilly Tokyo office, we will ensure that your valued contribution goes to the relief of those most in need. We'll update the total amount donated throughout the day, as well as the final amount.

    The image you provide of “Make: Arduino Bots and gadgets” is enticing — maybe something I’d like to buy and read, maybe through this Japanese Dissaster Relief offer. But I can’t find it on the makezine or O’reilly sites. Could you link to it?
