Can you convert a guitar amplifier into a normal speaker or a sub-woofer?

Is it possible to convert an electric guitar amplifier into a normal output speaker for your computer, iPod, etc, or even a sub-woofer?
If so, would you just need a cable with a 3.5mm jack and a 6.35mm one on the other end?

You could use it as a "normal speaker", but it will sound terrible, so don’t even bother–I mean really awful. Also, the input is a bad match for any output from an audio component. It won’t work at all as a subwoofer. Guitar amps have NO deep bass or even mid-bass output at all!
