Instructables is fast becoming one of my favorite websites to spend waste time on. It's a DYI collaborative in which you can peruse through hundreds of weird to whacky to practical things that people have created and learn how to make them yourself. You can also contribute to the library or participate in discussions on each individual project that's been posted. Not that a computer mouse outfitted with a real taxidermied mouse or an exploding volcano chocolate cake is necessarily something I'd want to actually undertake. Most of the projects are at least entertaining. There are some great and practical ideas on there. See them here: www.instructables.com
