HOW TO – Fuji FinePix 2300 IR modification
A while back I saw someone had taken a webcam and changed it over to an InfraRed (IR) webcam. I had thought about doing that before but never did because I saw all these new webcams that had the IR LEDs on the camera and made it an IR webcam. Even still I went ahead and modified my webcam any ways to practice and see how easy it is. I had this digital camera I picked up for $70 a few years back. It is a Fuji FinePix 2300. My goal was to turn this into a Digital IR Camera without having to use expensive filters which range from $70 and up. [via] Here’s how he did it- Link. Also- HOW TO for the Nikon D70.

Is it an internal organ? …The Thing in a Jar is made out of Sculpy, acryllic paint and rubber cement. The liquid inside the jar is diluted Coke. This is the third Thing in a Jar I’ve made. For some reason I’m always compelled to give them away as gifts. 
I need to try this, but it looks like this is the real thing…run Windows 95 and Linux on the PSP. I’ve done it by porting the excellent open source x86 emulator Bochs. Windows 95 actually runs quite well but don’t expect it to be a speed demon. It takes about 10 minutes to boot but afterwards it’s pretty usable. I was able to do things like: open “My computer” and browse the virtual hard drive, complete a whole game of Minesweeper and run various other applications. Now you too can get your Minesweeper fix on the go :) [
This site sprung from the hypothetical question: “What if Martha Stewart was a goth?” For the uninitiated, Martha Stewart is a phenomenally successful domestic arts champion and stylemaker who advocates an upscale but not ostentatious style of living which has a lot to do with making things yourself and finding new uses for the old, instead of just buying everything new.
