… Instructables are in!

What is it: A community platform where people tell you e.g. how to build your own IPod Dock, how to easily get a stain out of the carpet, how to cook a descent “Chicken Chile Verde” [sic], how to pop out the little cone in the middle of a speaker (that your cat pushed in with its head) or simply how to humanely make a chicken pass out.

You know, just stuff that you never dared to do because you didn’t know where to start.

Pretty slick I think.
