Really informative and well-researched chart from XKCD on where money is and what it can do. Give yourself time to look it over, and keep an eye out for random facts (like that Coca-Cola could afford to buy every human on the planet a bottle of coke).

I have found the use of three tools essential in properly devouring this book:
1. Google
2. Wikipedia
3. Urban Dictionary

Interesting little video from the NYTimes about an ancient chess set on display at a museum. Discusses some interesting facts about how the game was changed over time.

While I would never wear it, I find this shirt hilarious and awesome.

So far I've only seen Part I, but I really enjoyed it. It's like a Latin American "Munich" that goes on for a long time. Straight up gangster

Hear the signature phrases of top rappers. Make sure your sound is on. This is pretty fun for a few minutes, and boring thereafter.

What airplanes are flying over your head right now? Wolfram Alpha knows.

Daily journaling via email, with reminders about your past shenanigans.

A great combination of jazzy and violent

A No I.D. fronted project that is as dope as the name implies. My favorite tracks are those that feature Common. The best part? Both EPs are free as they utilize "Pay With A Tweet"
The music industry will evolve, but until then projects like this explore alternative methods of distribution.

I'm an unabashed periodic table geek.

I love this site. I've never sketched anything in my life, but I really enjoy this format. I want to buy a graphic tablet now just to mess around with it more.

A simple concept that has huge impact on local creative communities across the globe. No hassle. No red tape. No paperwork. 10 people x $100/month = $1,000/month granted with no strings attached to creative people doing awesome projects in your city.

Figuring the kids in London were growing bored squatting in St. Pauls cathederal, BANKSY decided to drop off a great big Monopoly board.

Brilliant and inspirational

Really neat story - Kevin Durant tweeted "This lockout is really boring..anybody playing flag football in Okc..I need to run around or something!" A student at Oklahoma State tweeted back that he had a flag football game that night, and Durant actually showed up and played. Watch the video to see KD's football skills.

This robot is practically enlisted in the US Army. It's already doing pushups and walking for hours with no destination. Hopefully they're giving it GI BIll
