Inspired by the William Gibson quote, "The street finds its own uses for technology" – Street Use is a blog just about that: how people are using the street in a diverse and increasingly customisable (is that a word?) way.
Created by Kevin Kelly is Senior Maverick at Wired magazine, the site features anything from an improvised amoured truck in Iraq to african home-made toy trucks (see pic).
It’s a fascinating read, but my favourite has to be the dashboard oven post – about a women who uses the dashboard in her SUV as an oven to bake cookies.

Thanks for the write up about second chance fashion. Any write up is a good one, in my opinion.
I love your blog and I see your point about social networking. We are really a “niche” community, designed to bring all of us “little people” together with the idea that we can do more if we band together. Hope this comment doesn’t sound defensive—just wanted to say thanks for the mention and give you some background.
