Computer and Web Articles

Please note that the site I’m about to share with you here will not make you a better person, help you better understand your computer, give you reason to chuckle, nor save you time. All this aside, it’s still one of those … well … really neat things that you’ll look at for 30 seconds or so whilte thinking “Huh. This is pretty cool.”

A few years back a smart fellow from M.I.T. by the name of Ben Fry developed Zipdecode, a little program that accounts for every single zip code in the United States. Click on the map and type in a number, any number. Try typing in the number 9, for example See all the dots along the entire West Coast turn white? Try typing another number, then another, then another. Delete one of the numbers and try another. Isn’t this clever? Isn’t this just neat?

Again, it won’t save the world, but it’s always interesting (to me at least) to see people exploring the realm of technology mixed with fresh ideas and design.
