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.

if you have feedback, ideas, a cool hack or mod, send it along to me via email for now or aim me.
