Follow the basic instructions on [[How to start a box]] for the second box. When you are starting off the new notebook, please note which box it was calved from and any donor information that ought to continue with both boxes. Also update the [[Box Tracking]] page to add the code name you've assigned to the new box, and note which box it was calved from.</div>67.172.119.51https://tgimboej.org/index.php?title=Help:Contents&diff=242Help:Contents2008-06-29T04:36:00Z<p>67.172.119.51: </p>

<B>The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk</B> is a progressive lending library of electronic components. An internet meme <i>in physical form</i> halfway between P2P zip-archive sharing and a flea market. It arrives full of wonderful (and possibly useless) components, but you will surely find some treasures to keep. You will be inspired look through your own piles, such as they are, and find more mysterious components that clearly need to be donated to the box before it is passed on again. <br />
<br />
----<br />
<B>Recipient Conditions</B> for The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk:<br />
<OL><br />
<LI> <B>Take out and add</B> as much electronics junk as you like (but keep it small enough to fit in a USPS flat-rate Priority Mail box). <br />
<LI> Write up, photograph, document or otherwise <B>publish in some way</B> online at least one thing you took out (suggested flickr tag: [http://flickr.com/search/?w=all&q=tgimboej&m=tags TGIMBOEJ]).<br />
<LI> There is a little book in the box. Add a checkmark by your name to show that the box has been to you. Also <B>propose a future recipient</B> by adding their name and e-mail address to the book.<br />
<LI> Within two weeks <B>pass the box along</B> to one of the people whose name is in the book. Before mailing it to them, send them this list and make sure that they want to participate.<br />
</OL><br />
<br />

More information about this project is coming soon. In the mean time, you can read about it [http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/junkbox here].</div>67.172.119.51https://tgimboej.org/index.php?title=FAQ&diff=240FAQ2008-06-29T04:34:12Z<p>67.172.119.51: </p>
<hr />
<div><B>If you get the box, who you should send it to?</B><br />
<BR><br />
A proposed recipient should be someone you suspect of having a critical mass of (or at least sufficiently interesting) electronics junk, should have a non-zero online presence, and should be reliable enough that you think they actually will send it off again within two weeks. (Naturally, bonus points for open source oriented hardware hackers.) <br />
<br />
<br />
<B>Why would you want to get a box of junk in the mail?</B> <BR><br />
As Mark Frauenfelder observed in [http://makezine.com/ Make:] vol. 12, there is a certain importance to keeping a junk box for future projects. We heartily agree. Perhaps a component in the box-- or the box itself-- will inspire your next project. Or just maybe it will have that frobnicated interoceter you've been looking for forever. Or maybe you just want to join our fledgling junk-sharing movement because it's fun. <br />
<br />
<br />
<B>Don't sweat the details.</B> <BR><br />
Can you say "no" if someone offers you the box? Yes. Can you send it to the person whose name you wrote down? Yes. Can you send it to someone who already has a checkmark by their name? Yes. If the box gets too full, can you split the contents in two and send them in two different directions? Yes (but don't forget to add a new book to the new box).</div>67.172.119.51https://tgimboej.org/index.php?title=FAQ&diff=239FAQ2008-06-29T04:34:02Z<p>67.172.119.51: New page: FAQ ---- <B>If you get the box, who you should send it to?</B> <BR> A proposed recipient should be someone you suspect of having a critical mass of (or at least sufficiently interesting) ...</p>
