Bre Pettis posted my playing cards top-hat project on MAKE blog.

Today is a TechPresentations day – I published two presentations about Google infrastructure systems (an overview and BigTable) and one about Ubuntu Linix by its founder, Mark Shuttleworth who sold Thawte to Verisign and became second space tourist (I thought he was first).

It might sound strange but I’m not only doing computer stuff (although it takes most of my life) – today I published my first instructable – Party top-hat made of playing cards.

I’ve been collecting playing cards for a long time and being interested in DIY (being subscribed to MAKE Magazine was probably my biggest acheivement so far), I thought it’ll be a great project because playing cards are also a great material (no, I don’t use collectable cards).

Take a look – I also did it as an experiment trying writing manuals/educational stuff (all of us have weak areas they have to work on).

Moved this blog and http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/ to new hosting.

Other projects will follow soon.

Let me know if you’ll notice any glitches with it.
