Hi everyone! Names Eric Brown, mostly lurked in the comments for the Kickstarter since day one. Only commented occasionally.

I'm an engineer for a company called Lam Research. Avid Climber/Mountaineer so I can't wait to see what this watch can do in the mountains.

Nice to see people moving over, going to be an amazing product I'm sure.

Hi All
By way of introduction...I'm a very old, decrepit, broke-my-neck guy. As you can see, I'm also sad, lonely, and a sympathy whore.
I have no background in IT, engineering, electronics, or any other relevant area of study. In short...I'm...er...pretty much useless when it comes to adding anything really useful to this site.
However I'm here...and will occasionally post. Only occasionally because owing to my broken neck, I can only type with one finger of one hand, and for some reason the voice-to-text on my Mac won't work here. I will, however, lurk and read stuff, so my not posting will be no loss.
I'm excited about this project even though I have no idea how any of it works.
I'm looking forward to reading the posts here...and occasionally whining and seeking solace in my lonely and pathetic life.

I don't work in tech, but have a little more knowledge than most folk as I was in the not so distant past a certified computer technician. I'm a tech nut whose been looking for a good smartwatch. I'm hoping Blocks fits that description.
Welcome STATS Guy !

Whoa, Space vehicle BrYangst has touched down on planet Blocks and is set to enjoy a multi-dimensional shift in the space-time continuum through modular emancipation. Excited? Oh, yeah! Hi all.

I'm no tech genie or I.T. wizard but I like to think I know a good thing when I see it. I'm a sculptural artist and part time librarian, or PuNk PoTtEr and Wordwitch, as you wish. I reside in Hull (UK capital of culture 2017) LCD's were invented here.

I love good design, in my practice and in my purchases. Form and function in equilibrium should be my motto. That is why I backed the Blocks watch; the modularity gives a multiverse of possibilities, from the customisation of skins and materials to the technomothingamybox of hot chocolates that is the hardware modules. Ultimately I'd like the Blocks to have a teleportation/time travel module but I'll settle for a sim, gps, altimeter (for determining how high my ride home in Hull is) and extra micro sd storage for now. And a spirit level would come in handy to judge the correct degree of arm bend whence consuming one's pint of ale.

I'll probably vend posts on design and quality issues but am apt to muse on dream apps and marvel in module madness. Roll on 4th Feb...

Welcome Bryanxst! As a follower of the "form and function in equilibrium" principle too (I love the way you said it), I'm sure we'll both take advantage of the high level of customization of BLOCKS! I'll be starting a thread in the hardware development section about shell design, when people interted might share their ideas and knowledge about patterns, shapes, materials, manufacturing processes, etc. The SDK isn't out yet, so there's little to talk about at the moment, but when the forum gets fully operative, be sure to drop by and share some of your own thoughts!

All official updates wlll be posted on Kickstarter. After it's posted there it will probably be re-posted in this forum.
By the way, please take note that this is the welcome thread. Next time, please make a thread in this section.

When you ran into a problem, don't give up.
Most of the time a nice workaround will help you further.
