Digital Technology for Digital Living.

Clear the workbench. Here comes Make.
Geek publisher O’Reilly, famous for books with strange animals on the cover, have just created a new magazine called Make.
Make brings the do-it-yourself mindset to all the technology in your life. Make is loaded with exciting projects that help you make the most of your technology at home and away from home. This is a magazine that celebrates your right to tweak, hack, and bend any technology to your own will.
We can’t wait to get hold of this one. The first issue is 181 pages of great DIY hackery, including how to take arial photographs using a kite and a camera, how to read the magnetic stripe from you credit cards, and how to recover photos from zapped flash cards.
Are we going to see this magazine on the newsstands here in Australia? Don’t know. We’ve asked the question and we’ll let you know what we find out.
In the meantime, subscription info and some sample articles are available from the Make website.
