Hack-a-Day

www.hackaday.com

This resource description is really simple. Hack-a-Day is a blog that compiles hacks* and projects from around the web. They also have forums and some other compiled resources. I follow them and will be posting good finds that I see there.

*hack, meaning to take a product or device and change it to make it better in some way. This might mean opening it up, modifying the electronics, using it for a different purpose, putting something together to "fool" the device so it works to your preference, or just tinkering with it to learn!
I don't mean the negative definition of hack, meaning to maliciously disobey or break security measures. The maker community has a different definition for hacking, which they do in different ways for different purposes. See my other related post here.
