Postcard

Postsecret is a community art project that has grown arms and legs and now has a huge following across the world.  People anonymously mail their secret on a postcard to Frank Warren (who runs the project) and he posts a selection on his blog every Sunday. I've been following this site for years now and eagerly await new secrets every Sunday.

The Last Word

The Last Word is a part of the New Scientist magazine that I really love. It gives readers the opportunity to send in their burning science related questions and have them answered by other readers.  People ask all sorts of questions and it can make for very interesting reading.

Ever wanted to know why your eyes get dry when you get water in them? Well here's the answer

Ever wanted to know why if you sleep for longer than usual you feel more tired? Well, some clever person has the answer

There are loads and loads of questions (100's in fact) but there are questions like this which makes me wonder if some people have a little bit too much time on their hands:

If I stand still and shout a phrase, then travel twice the speed of sound in a direction, will I hear that phrase backwards?

Hhhmmmm......

Kate Middleton's Engagement Dress Could be yours for £16

Well, a copy anyway..

I'm not especially girly but even I wanted to buy the now very popular engagement dress that Kate Middleton wore. Kate's dress was made by Issa and became an instant sell-out as girls across the country snapped one up so they too could look as glamorous as Kate.

However, all is not lost.. Tesco(!) have announced that they will be selling a copy of the dress for as little as £16.. Hits Tesco stores soon..

Predictive text

If you own an iphone you will be familiar with the phones predictive text habits.  Sometimes the outcome is very funny and sometimes it's just wrong..  For those who don't have a clue what i'm talking about- from time to time, the iphone predictive text misunderstands what you type and changes the word to something totally different.  Forget the old cup/bus error from the regular phone keypad - the iphone predictive text errors reach a new level altogether.  These are some of my favourites courtesy of damnyouautocorrect.com.

I'm terrible, i'm always running late for things no matter how hard i try and this handy article kinda explains why as humans it's not all that straightforward for us:

I really like this site as it's all written, designed and maintained by one guy and most of all because it's really funny and never fails to make me laugh.  I've bought a few of his posters and they take pride of place in my apartment.

First post

My first post is about a website that i really love at the moment and has kept me entertained for quite a few months now.  I love the fact that there is a new post every day about a new subject.  There are many "list" type sites on the internet but this is one of my favourites.
