For our Site of the Day, Visible Shops would like to present: Lifehacker.
Lifehacker stands at the epicenter of a huge blogospheric earthquake: the new DIY (Do It Yourself) movement on the web. From blogs that demonstrate or teach you how to minimize rubbish in your life (Unclutterer) or work with computers (DIY PC), people are using the Internet to accomplish tasks on their own.
Lifehacker, in particular, posts daily entries about new programs and web applications that can accomplish cool feats and minimize time and effort. For example, they posted an entry about how to control your PC with your voice. Or http://lifehacker.com/391982/export-and-restore-words-autocorrect-savings-with-a-macro. But the blog isn’t just about electronics; a great deal of posts are dedicate hot tips to upgrading your everyday life.
I mean, have you ever thought about customizing your moleskine notebook with laser etching? Or using vodka to cure poison ivy and soothe jellyfish stings? OK, most likely not. But that’s part of the charm about Lifehacker: the solutions are weirdly ingenious and sometimes provide conveniences and a bit of fun beyond normal expectations.
