The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk
TGIMBOEJ, The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk is a progressive lending library of electronic components. An internet meme in physical form 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.
NOTICE We're recovering from a database crash in early March. Some changes from December through March have been lost, but we believe that most-- including all box tracking information --has been recovered.
- User accounts created after december are most likely lost. If you registered in that period, you can probably register again with your original user name.
- We are still having some issues on the web site that we plan to fix soon. The biggest one occurs often when you try to save data-- it produces a DB error. Just try again, it almost always works on the second try.
