Recycle Hack (starting with unwanted book hacks)
Submitted by Recycle Hack
Book Hack Taking unwanted items and reusing them in a way that benefits the community. We started taking unwated books and asking members of the public to take a free book draw/hack it and then give it away to a stranger. Could a tech version be made? http://www.MUSTart.org This is a low tech hack but needs you to make it into something better. What else can be recycled for good?

Coffee Coffee Coffee Hack http://www.openspacecafe.ning.com
Submitted by Recycle Hack
Coffee Hack http://www.openspacecafe.ning.com What else can be done with coffee and how we consume it? How about creating spaces where you buy coffee and the profits fund social enterprise hacking activities? or a Coffeeometer. We have a poolside London cafe location opening this summer and have been given unlimited free internet. What do you think we can do with this hi/low/no tech wise? This has started as a low tech hack but needs you to make it into something better?

Hack Charity
Submitted by Recycle Hack
Hack Charity www.Freetraid.org Is there a better way to get donations/volunteers to work on charitable stuff? Would like to work with others on a way to reward donations by giving donors more than they gave in free 'things'. If donoros are rewarded they will repeat the process increasing donations multiple times. This is a low tech thing but could help charity somehow?

Arabic Rich Text Editor
Submitted by D1
Created a plug-in to the YUI Rich Text Editor component that allows it to handle right-to-left text like Arabic. What it does: - Gives a right-to-left direction to the RTE interface - Adds UI to set the direction of any paragraph to right-to-left or back to left-to-right. - Mirrors the user interface as the direction of the paragraph changes. - Does some clever walking of the DOM to figure out what a paragraph is. E.g. if it is made with div,p,br or ul. - Its just a plug in and does not…

Guess what this is!
Submitted by MMM
It's a simple game that explores the "lost in translation" effect of search engines and semantic meaning as understood by people. The player is presented with a picture which he must describe in 42 characters. This description is then used to search for more pictures (Flickr, if empty Zemanta). User then picks one out of the line-up and can challenge friends with it.

OpenFreecycle
Submitted by OpenFreecycle
OpenFreecycle is an attempt to make community sharing of free, unwanted items much more easy and widely accessible. Like eBay, for free. However, the Freecycle network operates as a collection of closed, private Yahoo Groups mailing lists. We want to build an open system: searchable, with feeds, and available to mashup with Greasemonkey in shopping sites, eBay, etc. "Don't buy this item, you can get it for free in your local community". http://dharmafly.com/openfreecycle

BadAPI
Submitted by BadAPI
When we're all using APIs to build mashups, we often forget that these APIs can go down, and it can really wreak havoc on your application. This is an App Engine app that reliably fails in a very predicatable and configurable way, to enable you to test your application's resilience to misbehaving APIs.
