I updated the wiki some minutes ago to the lates version. Hopefully it worked (the update itself had some minor problems). If there is any problem leave a remak in the comments!

Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories has released a big article about how to use solar power. Not specific BEAMish (i.e. no classical solar engine). But still very useful. And if you make something BEAMish out of it - put it in the wiki!
That is an intelligent idea:
A planter, which seeks light for its plant itself. It is perhaps a phototropic walker. Who knows?

The BEAM Wiki is now nearly two years old! Thank you for that!
It grew from a whopping 57 visitors in October 2006 to 2485 visitors in September 2008! Thank you for that.
I would especially thank anybody who contributed, linked or used the wiki. I can see that my aim to give the BEAM community a information base to make BEAM easier is slowly starting to work - and I am very happy about it.
A special thanks goes to DROIDMAKR! He contributed so much in the recent months (and got sysop - after I got it right). I hope he will be around some time to improve the wiki and help anybody to use and enhance it.
But after all I can only encourage anybody to share his/her designs, add his/her 5 cents to any content in the wiki.
One not so nice thing is coming up on the horizon: If the traffic is climbing as steadiliy as it is currently I would be very happy - but have to pay more for hosting. If this happens I think I will either add Google Ads to the pages or ask for donations (currently are the hosting costs something like 15$/month). If you prefer one or the other - just leave a comment.
