2006 is shaping up to be a good year for a lot of DIY and how-to resources. Imagine if each techy, gadgety or whatever site did a how-to every month. How to use Wikis, use that new phone, change your oil or just about anything. How-tos, step by steps and the “open recipes” make all this interconnectivity interesting. If you have site, take a break – post up something you know how to make or do.
