related entries: hack a day

welcome citizen engineers. hack a day (beta) is a web magazine devoted to cataloging all the best hacks, mods and diy (do it yourself) projects from around web. each day i’ll post one hack i like, seen or tried and once a week a special how-to. this is in beta, so enjoy the occasional oddity and sawdust while it gets cookin.

why a site? i thought it was time to have one spot on the web with all the things you can do with ipods, digital cameras, consoles, portables, locks, macs, pcs, anything that can be modd’ed or hacked. a lot of the desire to do this is so i don’t have to hunt around as much for ideas. the goal is for anyone who—has an old pda, a tivo, an atari, an ipod, xbox, or any device just sitting around, then hits hackaday.com, bang, sees all the things folks can do with it to void the already expired warranty or get more out of it.

i’ll post some resources like make, pop sci, books and other things to check out too since i get get asked about that a lot.

Looks pretty :cool: !!

I must ask, though. Why is it that the trend in "hack" sites is green on black?

Also, I thought your office was in your yard, not the Chrysler building ... :D

Eh? You talkin' to me? Chrysler building?

Actually, I now realize from the way I posted that that it might appear that I did this site. Nope. I'm not smart enough to do all of that stuff.

I believe the reason the hack sites are in green in black is ala the old, old, old computer monitors. It is kind of dumb if you ask me...

1.5 hours til the debate...up all night...can't wait...v

The Matrix is all around you, it is there when you wake up and when you sleep. It is there when you eat and when you watch tv. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you.

Very cool page... I myself am quite partial to Phrack (http://www.phrack.org/), another hack magazine.
