SITE TO SEE
Describing itself as "the world's biggest show and tell," Instructables germinated at the MIT Media Lab as a way to share projects. The Web-based documentation platform allows people to share instructions about things they know how to do and collaborate with other users.
Step-by-step descriptions on a wide range of activities are offered in the Instructables themselves, which are detailed panels that contain both visual and written descriptions. Want to whip up a pair of infrared goggles, give the gift of a disco drink coaster, or make a laser-cut cake? Instructables have you covered.
The site is highly interactive, with users giving advice and alternate strategies to projects.
Find it at www.instructables.com.
