I was just thinking of helping out our favorite robotics company by brainstorming with the community. To get this thread started off I want to ask all of you what tags should be added to our YouTube videos to increase exposure of the EZB there.

New To Rebotics

Hello all, my name is AJ. I found EZ by happenstance and now I'm hooked on the idea of building a bot.

It's a client/server setup so that Sam can answer or work on any PC in the house. I've...
