In a nutshell, the Digispark is of development boards--a pint-sized (it's the size of a quarter!), Arduino-compatible open-source USB development and production platform that is cheap enough to forget in a friend's a house.
Erik Kettenburg, the person responsible for the Digispark, currently going to bring Digispark to life. Needless to say, he got more than he asked for. With 27 days left to spare, the Digispark Kickstarter campaign boasts of approximately $45,000 in funding (Eric asked for only $5000).
So, why are we telling you about the Digispark when Erik is no longer in desperate need for cash? Easy. Because this is probably the best time to get a few Digisparks of your own--early adopters will be some of the first people in the world to receive a Digispark.
