Seeing The Sites
We all stumble across websites that catch our interest, and sometimes even drop our jaw. Here a few worth visiting:
One Red Paperclip
Kyle MacDonald had an idea: Start with a red paper clip, and see if you can trade-up for something better, then trade that new something again for something even better, eventually trading all the way up to a house. He’s been pursuing this goal since July of 2005, and you can track his progress online. (UPDATE 7/10: a week after posting this link, Kyle succeeded in getting a house)
MenWhoLookLikeKennyRogers.com
I’ve been following this website for years. Average citizens, like you and I, take photos of random people they come across who just happen to look like Kenny Rogers. Mind shattering. Best places to discover men who look like Kenny Rogers? State Fairs, Boot World, Drag Races, Fish Fries, Beer Gardens, Home Depot, Sears, Feed Stores, Tire Stores, Sporting Goods Section at Kmart, Bar-B-Que restaurants, Swap Meets, Sand and Gravel Sales, and Renaissance Faires. Happy hunting.
Splatter Matters
Release your inner Jackson Pollock. Visit this website, click on the screen, and let the dripping begin.
DigHoles.com
If you were to dig a hole, where would you come out on the other side of the world? As a child, cartoons always told us that we’d come out somewhere in China. Turns out... that’s not necessarily the case.
Fly Guy
Possibly my all time favorite website. Feel your anxiety and daily worries drain away as you fly through the sky encountering soothing adventures along the way.
SizeMatch.com
Here’s a website where you input your height, and it tells you what other notable celebrities and public figures are your size, as well as who’s taller and shorter.
WriteBackwards.com
Type in a word or a sentence and it will show you how your writing would look if it were backwards. Not a lot of point to it, but you may have a bit of free time on your hands, so what the hey…
Psychic Numbers
A clever trick that confounds.
www.Pandora.com
Type in an artist or song, and Pandora.com will find other similar musical influences. Create “Stations” that play music in the genres you enjoy.
