It seems that the Big G has its eye on makers this year, and has launched survey asking for your opinions on what kind of tools it should create to best serve the electronics project builders. There's a distinct lean toward how you might want to see its machine learning put to work with boards like the RPi, and Beaglebone.
Love it or hate it, Google has the power to make some serious impact in the maker community, so it's worth taking the survey, I believe: https://google.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3yMNYryaP4WsCwJ
If you're happy to share, let me know what you opted for during the survey -- be interesting to hear how this Community has contributed its ideas to the tech behemoth's plans. There are a lot of boards, project types and platforms in the survey that you guys will definitely recognise.
I just took it, and felt there were some very poignant questions in there about my maker habits.
Perhaps what's most interesting is that the survey clearly shows that Google's seriously interested in makers, and if Google's interested, it's a vitally important marketplace.
