Three sites I've recently come across that are worth seeing.
[ PostSecret ]
I found this courtesy of Nate. It's easily one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time and I'd like to send something in.
[ Dead or Alive? ]
Ever wonder if a certain celebrity has kicked the bucket? Find out here!
[ Acronym Search ]
Some brilliant person realized that people often don't know what certain acronyms stand for. So he or she or he-she collected them and posted them here. It's one of the most practical websites I've stumbled upon.
PostSecret is fairly cool, although collages are sort of the medium for people who with no artistic ability (such as myself). Somewhat similar, but less visually appealing, is grouphug [http://grouphug.us/]. There was also a piece in the january issue of Dazed & Confused magazine [http://www.confused.co.uk/] called True Confessions: Writers' Stories of Sin that was pretty awesome. Except that I wasn't able to do yen to USD conversions very well and ended up paying nearly twenty dollars for it in the Tokyo airport.
ReplyDeletefor acronyms, I'll stick to the classic AcronymFinder [http://www.acronymfinder.com/].
