[chbot] [random, but interesting (RBI)] Inside Digikey and Adafruit

[Mark Atherton]

More random, and hopefully interesting stuff

This is a 30 min conversation between Limor Fried (Adafruit) and Dave 
Doherty (Digikey) discussing the birth and growth of Digikey, and some 
operational stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJaweI24O74 Limor 
turns out to be quite the interviewer, with a broad range of interests. 
"In this video, Adafruit Founder Limor Fried interviews Dave Doherty on 
topics ranging from the death of the physical catalog, to the joy of 
running an engineering company as an engineer yourself" Looks like 
Digikey are taking an active interest in the maker movement , and have 
created https://www.digikey.com/en/maker

Adafruit on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/adafruit/videos (just 
spotted a Survival Research video there)

As usual, no financial interest in either company, just glad that they 
each exist.

HNY, Mark
