Nine Inch Niles - The Seattleward Spiral
A bizarre auto-mashup album I made today using Echo Nest Remix: it's a frankensteinien reconstruction of The Downward Spiral using only a few minutes of audio from the show Frasier.

Attention! an oil rig has exploded!
This page uses the latest estimate of the spill rate (5000 barrels/day ) to tally the total amount spilled by the leaking oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico.

Les Fruits de Mer
This is the web site for the world's premiere Extreme Shallow Snorkeling team. We snorkel the shallowest waters we can find and report back on it. We also pursue other goals while on expedition, such as creating a wildlife guide for the island we are on right now. Been to some cool extremely shallow snorkeling spots? Post on our forum or upload photos!

Why "Balloon Boy" Never Could Have Been
I've written a very short paper which explains the physics behind helium lifting balloons and why nobody should ever have been worried about "Balloon Boy" Falcon Heene.

American Nerd
American Nerd is a webzine devoted to people's strange interests, obsessions, and passtimes. Updated weekly (usually), we've had essays on the beauty of disc golf , explanations of crazy furniture finance, meditations on music snobbery, explications of the different breeds of zombies, defense of the band Chicago, updates on fake baseball leagues, and field reports from the Great American Beer Festival. Although we started out with a bias towards nonfiction, we've started running a couple of serial fiction pieces and a conceptual weekly comic strip. We also have periodic interviews, reviews, and a weekly survey.

Precritic
Guess how a future movie will be reviewed by critics. Enter your guesses before the movie is released, and you will get points depending on how close you are to the final Rotten Tomatoes score. It's in beta and there's a to-do list that gets longer every day.
