Subject: CD lists and other great WWW action
Doing a little catch-up web surfing I happened upon
http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~zalewskk/disclist.html
at which this character put a list of every CD he owns on WWW.
This is a thirty kilobyte file.
I think this is only one in a long list of possible useless uses for
the web. We have only begun to scratch the surface. Imagine:
- Check out my lunch database and find out what I've been
eating the past few weeks! Search on any food and find out how often
it's been in my diet! GIFs plotting average calorie consumption also
available.
- On Paul's wardrobe page, see what's in my closet! It's updated
daily to reflect what's currently in the laundry basket and what's
available for wearing. Want to help me pick my attire for today? Send
me email.
- Real time link to my car's odometer! See the miles
advance as you watch! I must be driving somewhere then, get it?
I expect to have the happeningest web pages on the planet, and you are
welcome to come by anytime! Yes, waste your life away reading about
trivialities of my life that even I don't care about! It's the future,
man!
Have you ever seen a list of CDs that somebody you don't know owns?
YOU WILL[tm].
On a whim I'm starting a collection. So far the CD page is the only
winner, but who knows how large this might grow -- send me submissions.
The URL for endless fun is

Catch the fever!
