The amazing Raspberry Pi keeps evolving before our eyes. The Pis in the world (which reached 2 million in October 2013) are inspiring hackers young and old, amateur and professional, to put the Pi to work on practical problems. And, wherever Pi users go, Raspberry Pi Geek goes.

We bring you some of those practical experiments this month. You'll learn about BrickPi, a product that lets you use your Raspberry Pi as a built-in control center for Lego Mindstorms robots. We'll also show you how to configure your Pi so you can control it using a standard infrared TV remote. We'll employ the Pi on the network as a DHCP/DNS server, and we'll even show you how to control a legacy Nikon film camera with a Raspberry Pi.
If you're looking for help with programming for the Pi environment, we introduce you to the Pygame gaming module for Python developers. We bring your another tutorial on the super-friendly Scratch programming language, and we show you how to extend the Pi by adding the capacity to receive input from an analog device.
