The Halfbakery is a communal web site for the discussion of novel, if not always serious, inventions.
The Halfbakery is a communal world wide web site that caters to people who wish to propose and develop novel, if not always serious, half-baked inventions.

The Halfbakery can be read by anyone but only logged in people can contribute to the site itself.

Users who have an account, for which you only need to supply a unique name and a password, are able to submit news ideas (the inventions) and add links and annotations to ideas.

Logged in users can also declare themselves to be for, neutral or against particular idea by voting. The results of the voting is summarised by a numberical score and icons of [croissant]s (for ideas people have liked) or fish bones (for ideas people dislike) shown against each idea.

Users are able to delete their ideas, links, annotations and even their whole account, if they like.

It is run by /Jutta? the anonymous "bakesperson" who provides the service, contributes ideas herself and has rights to delete ideas, annotations and links provided by other users.

Specialised terms on the Half-Bakery:
* baked - someone believes that the idea has already been built
* half-baked - someone believes the that idea already exists in fiction.
* WIBNI - someone feel the idea would be more suited to the [Wouldn't It Be Nice If]? web site.
